Anti-aging Vaccine
In an alternate timeline where Earth became a member of the Aschen Confederation, the Aschen provided Earth's population a powerful anti-aging drug, capable of doubling the life expectancy of humans. However, the vaccine intentionally causes an enormous amount of the population to become sterile in order to rapidly decrease the birthrate on a world within the Aschen Confederation. Almost a decade after the introduction of the drug about 91% of the population is unable to procreate. This article is about Earth as a planet. ...

This intentional sterilization is part of the Aschen's strategy to conquer other planets. [2] Eventually there are so few individuals left that the Aschen can effectively conquer the world, making it suitable for farming. [1]
Biogenic Weapon The Aschen have developed a living radioactive material that can be programmed to target and destroy a specific type of DNA. This devastating weapon is capable of wiping out entire select species while leaving others unharmed. Image File history File links No higher resolution available. ...

The Aschen possess a number of efficient delivery systems, including glowing spheres that can be launched from the ventral side of Harvesters through the Stargate. The range of these devices is unknown, though it can be assumed that a single one of these orbs can inflict enormous damage, possibly even eradicating entire planets. [1]

Defense Drone The Aschen Defense Drone is a small black dome attached to the walls of strategically important rooms. Several moments are required for the drones to charge, after which they fire thin energy bolts at enemy targets, leaving small burns on the body of individuals. Several shots are required to kill a target. However, the defense drones are quite vulnerable to Goa'uld weapons, including staff weapons and zats.

This defense technology was only encountered in an alternate timeline where Earth had become a member of the Aschen Confederation. It is possible that the technology was created by the Aschen in conjunction with Earth scientists, which would indicate the technology has never existed in the current timeline. [2]
Harvester The Harvester is an automated farming machine that traverses the skies above Aschen farming planets. Relying on anti-gravity technology to float over entire fields, the Harvester is used to collect the crops by some unknown means when the field it is assigned to is at the peak of growth. The collected crops are stored in one of three large compartments on board, eventually being transported through the Stargate to the Aschen homeworld. The Harvester can also transport other objects through the Stargate, including biogenic weapons, making the Harvester much more than just a farming tool.

The inside of the Harvester has at least one room in which occupants can reside, and underneath the ship to one end of the room is an open balcony where occupants can view out. There is also a lavatory on board, and an Aschen Transporter. One of these flying machines was encountered on the Volian homeworld. [1]
Holographic Projector The Aschen have developed technology to project three-dimensional objects into the air. This technology is incorporated into the conference rooms of their Harvesters [1] and science laboratories in an alternate timeline on Earth. [2]

Medicine Aschen medicine is extremely advanced compared to its Earth counterpart, rendering traditional doctors obsolete. Examples of their impressive medical technology include infallible diagnostic machines and machines that can mend broken bones in seconds. The Aschen have also developed drugs that can double human life expectancy and vaccines against cancer. [2] A pandemic on the Aschen world of Volia several years before 2001 was also easily cured by the Aschen, although it's possible, even likely, the pandemic itself was created by the Aschen in the first place.

Monitoring Satellite In an alternate timeline where Earth had become a member of the Aschen Confederation, several satellites monitored everything in Earth's solar system. These satellites could be used to predict solar flare activities. [2] This article is about the Solar System. ...

Starships As mentioned by SG-1, the Aschen are capable of space travel. However, they are not natural explorers and therefore only travel within their own Confederation.

Transporter The Aschen Transporter consists of a platform and pedestal that allows instantaneous transport to different locations on a planet. At least four people can be transported at a time over significant distances, even across entire continents. An interface is incorporated in the pedestal, where the user enters the desired destination. Immediately after, the travelers are transported to an identical platform at the intended location. [2]
