STARDRIVE 2 SUBSPACE PROJECTOR WINDOWS
The multi-million-year old vessel Destiny possesses an early hyperdrive system that manages FTL travel in normal space with the use of multiple modular drives, giving it vastly superior speed to the later hyperdrive systems that utilized hyperspace windows the Destiny can traverse multiple galaxies in a matter of hours, while Late Period Ancient single-drive ships could only traverse one galaxy in the same amount of time. Early Ancient technology has shown various advantages over Later Period Ancient technology for inexplicable reasons. However, not all the artifacts credited to the Ancients are depicted as a complete success.Īncient technology has varied in power and capability over the passage of many millions of years. In Stargate chronology, all Ancient technology was created prior to their ascension, with the exception of the Velona weapon, assisted by the character Orlin, and the weapon created by the character Merlin to destroy ascended beings. Ori technology in Stargate is shown as similar to that of the Ancients, since they are also depicted as ascended beings. They are also credited with designing a number of fictional weapons, primarily for use in the centuries-long war with the Wraith in the Pegasus Galaxy. The Ancients are portrayed as being extremely advanced in the areas of healing, power generation, and biology.

Ancient science and technology, with a few exceptions, is shown as being superior to that of other races. Their most notable creation in Stargate mythology is the entire Stargate network. The Ancients (also known as "Alterans" and "Lanteans") are a fictional advanced race in the Stargate franchise, and are depicted as the precursor to modern-day humans.
