The Verteron Array was a facility located on the planet Mars, and was designed to deflect and redirect comets in the Sol system with the use of verteron pulses.

In 2155, the array was taken over by the xenophobic Terra Prime group who used the array to attack Luna, and demanded that all non-Humans leave the system immediately. When the Enterprise (NX-01) attempted to thwart the groups attempt to attack San Francisco, the ship suffered damage but was thankfully not destroyed.

While the group were eventually defeated by the Enterprise crew, the array was still used to fire on Earth, but thankfully the beam was redirected to fire on the Pacific Ocean. (ENT episodes: "Demons", "Terra Prime")

In an alternate timeline, Terra Prime's efforts were successful and they destroyed Starfleet Headquarters. (Star Trek: Myriad Universes novel: A Less Perfect Union)
