What Season 2 of Stargate Atlantis

Season 2 opens with Atlantis under siege by Wraith ships. The arrival of the Daedalus, under the command of Colonel Caldwell, saves Major Sheppard, but it's unclear whether that will be enough to defeat the enemy fleet. Sheppard, leading the military team, must protect the city while searching for a way to stop the Wraith, beings that feed on the life energy of humans. Dr. Weir leads the expedition, and McKay relies on his advances with Ancient technology. The team must search for Lieutenant Ford, face a Wraith virus that affects the Daedalus, and deal with the threat of the Genii and the Trust.
