Ba'al however modified the Dakara Stargate, using a 'hack' of the DHD's correlative update function to dial every Stargate in the galaxy simultaneously, turning the weapon from a strategic threat to a galactic scale superweapon against all planets within the Milky Way Stargate network. Its range is normally limited to Dakara and its surrounding space, however the wave will propagate through the wormhole of an active Stargate (unimpeded by either iris or Goa'uld shield technology) and expand on the far side to cover the planet's surface, but unlike Dakara itself, the wave will not propagate into orbit. The Dakara Superweapon in the Temple of Dakara can return all matter in its range to its component molecules.The effect of dialing from a planet at this point was not described. Initially this caused time distortion effects near the gate, but as P3W-451 got closer to the black hole objects were pulled into the gate, as of " Exodus" a gate dialing from a star would exert such a pull that it could not only remove matter from the star, but do so fast enough to cause it to go supernova.

P3W-451 has fallen into a black hole an inbound wormhole to its stargate propagates the gravitational influence back to the dialing gate.A wormhole passing through a star is capable of introducing super-heavy elements into it, thus destabilizing fusion processes and changing, possibly catastrophically, the climates of planets orbiting it.

However, its yield is stated to be two gigatons of TNT, not enough to kill a planet. Anubis's Ancient weapon that charges a Stargate powerfully enough that it explodes.The Stargates themselves are composed of Naqahdah, and, if caused to detonate, would cause considerable damage.Project Arcturus, an abandoned Ancient project capable of extracting energy from our own universe, unlike a normal Zero Point Module which draws energy from subspace, would create exotic particles with unpredictable properties, and would overload to actually destroy approximately 5⁄ 6 of a solar system.A tainted Zero Point Module can explode with enough energy to destroy an entire star system.Planet killers in fiction Film and television Andromeda Tolian Soran's trilithium torpedo in Star Trek Generations, are all capable of causing a supernova, obliterating every planet in the Solar System. Nova bombs in Andromeda, the Sun Crusher and Centerpoint Station in the Star Wars novels, and Dr. Some devices can destroy entire star systems. In Star Blazers, missiles that can destroy a planet (and even a star) with a single hit exist. Covenant warships use plasma weapons to superheat the surface of the planet the crust is turned into a glass-like substance rendering it uninhabitable. The Shadow Planet Killer does so by firing missiles which burrow into the planet's core and detonate, causing planet-wide volcanic activity which renders the planet lifeless. Other weapons, such as the Shadow Planet Killer in Babylon 5 and Covenant warships in the Halo series, render a planet uninhabitable. In the game Spore, the Planet Buster is an antimatter bomb that is inserted in the center of the planet, causing the planet's core to split into countless fragments. Weapons such as the Death Star and the titular ship in Lexx use a directed energy weapon capable of obliterating a planet in moments. Planet killers function in a variety of ways depending on the series. Examples of such devices include the Death Star from the Star Wars film franchise, the " Doomsday Machine" seen in the original Star Trek television series, or the atomic-powered stone burners from Frank Herbert's Dune franchise.
