re: #328 Dark_Falcon

Please explain. (updinged anyway.)


It’s from Farscape,

1812 was a Diagnostic Repair Drone that was originally created by the Leviathan Elack. During John Crichton’s stay aboard the elder Leviathan, he taught it to whistle & chirp the 1812 Overture. To add to its unique status, Crichton also painted 1812’s casing in red, white, and blue with the numbers “1812” in black.

After Elack’s sacrifice on the planet Arnessk, 1812 is the last surviving piece of the Leviathan. 1812 has a useful position when it arrives on Moya, notably during the boarding of a group of Coreeshi bounty hunters when Moya’s DRDs are deactivated with 1812 the lone active DRD thanks to its outside origin.

1812 is also Crichton’s data storage unit for all of his wormhole equations and calculations. It is also where Crichton keeps preliminary designs for the wormhole weapon built in “Farscape The Peacekeeper Wars” as a means to control wormholes. Along with the added wormhole knowledge in his head, this weapon became the most destructive weapon ever made.
