Core drive

The Core drive was a component of an Aurora class warship's ship's tracking system.

Overview
This device allowed a uer to pinpoint the locations and movements of every Aurora class vessel in the galaxy. It appeared as a small Lantean style tablet that carried the necessary information.


 * It's possible that the core drive can be tampered with as it did not reveal the lone Asuran warship that survived the Battle of Asuras.

History
A core drive was given to a nanite constructed copy of Elizabeth Weir and a duplicate version of Atlantis Expedition's flagship team in order to provide the ability to track the Asuran fleets in the galaxy.

This information was used by the real Expedition to coordinate their 304's deployments in order to ambush the Asuran warships as they came out of hyperspace.
