Apollo
|
The Apollo is the second Terran Warship of the BC-304 (Battle Cruiser 304) design,built by the Tau'ri. It is part of the Fast Attack Wing branch of the USAF, a branch which is top secret and tied to the SGC. (This branch includes all SGC spacecraft and F-302 interceptors.) It is the sister-ship of the Daedalus.
It integrates Asgard and other technologies, and has more upgrades and is easier to handle than its predecessor, the Prometheus. Its purpose is to defend the Earth and offworld SGC assets, and assist in various missions. It has become the Tau'ri link between the Milky Way and the Pegasus Galaxy, running milk runs with supplies. A one-way journey between Earth and New Lantea takes an average of 27 days in hyperspace. Unlike the Daedalus they have no Asgard adviser onboard.
