==Summary==


The ''Prometheus'' is a space-worthy battle ship created by the Air Force using Earth and alien technology. It was developed under the designation X-303, named the ''Prometheus'' after its maiden flight (6.11 "Prometheus"), and given the upgraded designation of BC-303 after it proved its capabilities (7.07 "Enemy Mine").
==Mythological References==
==Real-World References==
==History of Development==
In the episode, 6.11 "Prometheus", Maj. Samantha Carter told the television news crew led by Julia Donovan, "All the key systems were reverse engineered from a ship that crashed 100 miles north of Fairbanks, Alaska, in 1978. It was only in the last few years that our technology evolved to a point where we could take advantage of what we had."
The truth of this statement was questioned by Jonas Quinn and Carter said that "Fairbanks" sounded better than "Roswell". Carter also implied that the ship which was found in Fairbanks was of Asgard design.
Carter gave this story about the ''Prometheus'' to the news crew with the knowledge that the Air Force intended to destroy the taped footage of the tour. The news crew was under the impression that the footage would be kept by the government until it was deemed appropriate to reveal the existence of the spacecraft, giving Donovan the exclusive. The SGC was in effect operating a double cross in order to find the identity of Donovan's source.
Part of Carter's explanation about the ''Prometheus'' was true. She stated that it was the third in a series of designs that incorporates both human and alien technology. Major Paul Davis, when disclosing the Stargate Program to ambassadors of China, Great Britain, and France, stated the same thing. The X-303 was the third in the series, following the development of the X-301 and X-302 fighter spacecraft (6.17 "Disclosure").
Up until this point, the alien technology only included that of the Goa'uld, but since then, the Asgard have added some of their technology as thank you gifts for helping them in the war with the Replicators (6.17 "Disclosure", 8.10 "Endgame", 8.11 "Gemini", 8.12 "Prometheus Unbound").
==Asgard Beaming Technology==
==Bay on Earth==

The ''Prometheus'' sits in a subterranian bay in Nevada where it was assembled and is maintained (6.11 "Prometheus", 7.22 "Lost City Part 2", 8.10 "Endgame", 8.12 "Prometheus Unbound").

There are at least five (5) isolation rooms designated as the brig. When Daniel Jackson was left alone on the ''Prometheus'' with the space pirate Vala, he confined her to one of the brig rooms. The room is quite generous in space and is equipped with a platform for resting and a toilet and sink. The room is under surveillance through a camera and microphone securely fastened to the room's ceiling. (8.12 "Prometheus Unbound")

==Hyperdrive Engines==

The hyperdrive engines were first powered by the powerful, but highly unstable, mineral called naquadria (6.20 "Memento"), but then new hyperdrive technology was installed by the Asgard (8.08 "Covenant", 8.10 "Endgame", 8.11 "Gemini", 8.12 "Prometheus Unbound").
After successful testing of the Asgard hyperdrive (8.11 "Gemini"), General George Hammond gathered a crew together to go on a rescue mission to the Pegasus Galaxy to determine the fate of the Atlantis Expedition (dispatched in ''Stargate Atlantis'': 1.01 "Rising Part 1"). During the trip, they picked up a distress call and attempted to help, but the ''Prometheus'' was hijacked by a space pirate named Vala. During the time that she had the ship, the hull was damaged by Goa'uld death gliders and because of this damage, the rescue mission had to be aborted because hyperdrive was not recommended with such damage. (8.12 "Prometheus Unbound")

The ''Prometheus'' has a Goa'uld ring transporter on Deck 4 (also called the Level 4 Ring Room) (8.12 "Prometheus Unbound").

The Asgard installed their shield technology as a thank you for helping them in the war against the Replicators (6.12 "Unnatural Selection", 6.17 "Disclosure").
==Sublight Engines==

Sublight engines enable the ''Prometheus'' to accelerate to 110,000 miles per second, which is over half the speed of light (186,000 miles per second) (6.11 "Prometheus").
The relay for the sublight engines is located on Deck 8 (6.11 "Prometheus").
