Ellis, Abraham
THE STARGATE OMNIPEDIA
ELLIS, ABRAHAM
Colonel in the United States Air Force, commander of the Deep Space Carrier U.S.S. Apollo.

Ellis was first dispatched to the Pegasus Galaxy with intelligence regarding the Asurans, Pegasus Replicators who were busily constructing a series of warships to attack Earth. A preemptive assault was planned and conducted by the Apollo, which launched a series of Mark IX tactical nukes into Asuras's atmosphere.

Ellis had a tumultuous relationship with Dr. Elizabeth Weir during her final days as leader of Atlantis, but he did make her aware that though he didn't necessarily care for her, others in the military (such as General Jack O'Neill) were very fond of her. Ellis now has to contend with Colonel Samantha Carter, who has replaced Weir as leader of Atlantis.
