Deep space carrier under the command of Colonel Abraham Ellis. The fourth ship of her series, the Apollo was originally sent to the Pegasus Galaxy on an urgent mission to destroy Replicator warships under development on the surface of the Replicator homeworld, Asuras. Apollo delivered a payload of Mark IX nukes (codenamed Horizon) into Asuras's atmosphere, destroying the ships.

In a retaliatory strike, the Replicators soon launched an all-out assault on Atlantis, disabling the Apollo and forcing her to flee.

The Apollo was later refitted with Asgard plasma beam weapons which were used to stave off Replicator assaults on Pegasus planets. During that same time period, Apollo joined forces with her sister ship Daedalus, the Travelers and several Wraith hives to wage an all-out attack on the Replicator homeworld.
