The Destiny pulse weapons are early Ancient ship-to-ship weapons, several of which were installed on the starship Destiny.

[edit] Overview

The weapons are double barreled energy turrets. It is currently not known how powerful these weapons are, but it is known that they rapidly discharge yellow energy pulses.

[edit] History

Due to the damage to the Destiny suffered during a previous attack, the current expedition was unable to activate the weapons safely. On Earth, scientists had believed they had found a way to get the expedition back home but it required the ship to enter into a star to refuel. To accomplish this, they attempted to and managed to use them in order to deplete the ships energy reserves which activated the Destiny's programming sending it to the nearest star in order to repower itself.
