Description: "Yeah, well, it appears to have been named after an Ancient general... Hippaforalkus." —Rodney McKay

The Orion, originally named the Hippaforalkus by the Ancients, was an Aurora-class battleship in the Ancient fleet, constructed by the Lanteans during their time in the Pegasus galaxy. It was one of the few known Aurora-class ships to have survived the Lantean-Wraith war.

While the Orion was largely identical to the Aurora itself, it may have been a slightly modified or upgraded variant; Unlike the Aurora, Orion's bridge featured several crew chairs. Furthermore, it possessed a hyperdrive capable of intergalactic travel, whereas the Aurora possessed only an interstellar hyperdrive. Whether these features were originally built-in with the ship or included later is unknown.
