The Origin Satellite is a technology used by [[Jason Bur'I]] in the short story [[Not Hunting]] from [[The Inclination to Destiny]]. In the story, Jason uses the satellite to kill a vampire, he then looses control of it and it begins attacking Bur'I's industrial sector, as was it's original programming.

==Description==
The satellite is essentially a massive particle beam weapon powered by zero-point energy. The power source slowly fills a buffer until it is ready to fire. A gravitational mass-displacement drive is used for station-keeping. The entire system is controlled by crystal computers and the satellite itself has no moving parts.

The name Origin Satellite was given to the weapon by Hunter and Jason, it is unknown what it's original builders called it.

==Origin==
Exactly where Jason obtained this extremely advanced technology is not made clear. Ostensibly it is [[Ancients|Ancient]], but Jason hints that it may actually have been made by the [[Iname]]. It is indicated that he and [[Hunter Jusenkyou|Hunter]] have several of them, and that he had reprogrammed this one to use as a satellite-based weapon.

===Purpose===

The satellite accomplishes this by looking for signs of artificial electromagnetic activity. It will typically begin by targeting power generators or power sub-stations, then move on. The sensors are supposedly sophisticated enough to pick up very small electronics such as hearing aids and digital watches.

Jason's original purpose is not made entirely clear. He had felt confident that he had reprogrammed the satellite to do his bidding and act as a space gun. He also placed it in geostationary orbit, as opposed to a standard orbit. This kept it centered over Bur'I's capitol, and helped to minimize the eventual damage. Jason had likely meant to use it to destroy targets of interest, or turn it back towards space as a planetary defense weapon.

When the satellite invariably reverts to it's old programming, Hunter opts to use his highly maneuverable mobile suit to draw the weapon's fire. Since his mech is powered by a zero-point generator of it's own, it rates much higher than anything the Bur'Ians posses to the satellite's targeting system. Hunter flies the mech to an altitude at which he is above the horizon, making the satellite's beam miss the planet entirely(though this requires him to dodge the attacks sometimes by mere inches).

Seeing that Hunter cannot keep this up and knowing Bur'I lacks any sort of effective means to nutralize the satellite, Jason(rather reluctantly) proposes to Hunter that he use his mobile suit's highly experimental [[Hyperspace window generator]] to at least move the satellite far, far away. He(and Hunter) knew that this would mean sending Hunter's mobile suit(with Hunter in it) along with the satellite, and would very likely be a suicide mission. They also both understood that there was no other option.

In the end, Hunter manages to survive the episode, crashing his mobile suit along with the satellite on a distant world, and leaving him with only his magic as a method of transportation.
