| [[File:Seedership.jpg|thumb]] One of an undetermined number of advanced, presumably unmanned ships launched by the [[Ancients]] ahead of the exploratory vessel [[Destiny]]. The ships automatically manufacture [[Stargates]] and deposit them on suitable planets they encounter as they move from galaxy to galaxy. They also record sensor data on the planets and solar systems.
| |
| [[Nicholas Rush]] once deceived the Destiny crew by claiming that he had accessed a subspace communication link between Destiny and the seed ships, accessing huge amounts of sensor data transmitted back to it. While the [[Icarus-type planet]] he claimed to have found about a year ahead in Destiny's path was discovered to be a ruse, it is not known if the subspace link and sensor data itself is real.
| |
|
| |
| Destiny eventually did encounter and dock with one of the vessels, allowing a team to go aboard. They found a massive store of power reserves and tried to use it to dial the Stargate back to Earth, but were stopped by a group of aliens who have taken up residence on board. Destiny also received a download of data from the ship.

|
| |
| The ships are substantially smaller in size than Destiny. Like Destiny, they are millions of years old. It is not known how far ahead of Destiny they are traveling -- whether only weeks or months, or decades or even centuries.
