Wraith laboratory

Ground-based facility created by the Wraith, commonly for purposes of research and development. Like hive ships and other technology they are used by numerous Wraith factions, and can be made to serve a variety of functions. Their fixed location on the surface of planets in the Pegasus Galaxy has certain advantages, but also makes them vulnerable if discovered by the enemy.

At one secret lab some 10,000 years ago, during the war against the Ancients, the Wraith were able to rapidly produce foot soldiers. After a group of Ancient warships strayed too far into Wraith territory they were captured, and their Zero Point Modules taken to power the cloning facility. This ultimately turned the tide of the war in the Wraith's favor, as they were able to overwhelm the Ancients due to their sheer numbers.

This facility was ultimately destroyed, when John Sheppard and his team crashed a hive ship into it.
