When connected to a Stargate, these reserves should, in theory, allow stable wormholes to be established spanning at least the distance between the Milky Way and Destiny. Only the anti-fighter turrets have been shown, so it is unknown if they possess a larger main weapon as Destiny does. Like Destiny, Seed ships are armed with pulse weapons for defense, though presumably they are not as well armed, given their smaller size. Data on these planets is transmitted to Destiny via a subspace link, which is used to determine the ship's course as well as give Destiny places to resupply. The gate factory on the Seed ships appears to stretch along the length of ship, and has room to hold numerous gates at once. The Seed ships are designed to manufacture and deploy Stargates on worlds which may possess the resources necessary for Destiny's journey, as well as planets suitable for exploration. The docking port doubles as a power and data link. A docking port is located at the rear of the vessel, which allows Destiny to dock with the ship using a receiving port on its underside. They are flatter in their overall design, lacking the large, pyramid-shaped living structure that Destiny has, and the wings at the rear of the vessel are hollow like those of the Ancient shuttle. The Seed ships have the same basic shape as Destiny, but are only about half the size in dimensions and a third of the mass.
