Well, it can't get any worse, then, can it?
Oh, no. I'm rapidly working up to despise.

So yes they do have cloaks. They just don't show Asgard ships as invisible for artistic readings: ie seeing O'Neill beamed into a big large bit of empty space isn't impressive/sigpic

S10 ep 14 I think.

Given how a Puddle Jumper's cloak can be reconfigured into a shield and Atlantis can cloak once tied into a Puddle Jumper, I always thought it was implied that the two technologies are closely linked.
The impression I get is that a dedicated cloak can become a crude shield, and a dedicated shield can become a crude cloak - in either case, the power requirements for performing the operation NOT intended by its design are much higher. That's just how I've interpreted it though...
So I'd speculate that it's just the Asgard shields modified into a cloak, something that can only be done with a ZPM due to much higher power requirements.And now it's time for one last bow, like all your other selves. Eleven's hour is over now... the clock is striking Twelve's.

Originally posted by s09119 View PostNo, they have personal cloaking devices. That's all we know. It's entirely feasible that no one has ever looked at the right place at the right time to see an Asgard ship. Saying anything else has no proof.
There is stealth tech involved.sigpic

As far as how it's done, Daniel essentially had the same mind abilities as the Prior's and if you recall Adria (who I think had the same abilities) was able to repair the Ori Mothership when it's power generators were blown up by Cam's C4 in Counterstrike (SG1 season 10) without going anywhere near the actual generators, so I think Daniel probably just modified the Shield emitters in a similar way to how Rodney modified Atlantis's shields into a cloak in the Siege part 3 (SGA season 2), using his Prior mind powers.
