Orbital power beam targeter
An ancient targeting unit for a network of power-collection satellites. Once aimed at a target, it directs ancient satellites to begin beaming power down in a massive column of electromagnetic energy. This power can safely be collected in a giant absorption dish. Since you have no absorption dish, you'll be aiming it at enemies, at which point the power column will turn the area into a thousand-degree inferno. This will last until the satellites detect the unsafe targeting, shut themselves down, and permanently deactivate the targeter.

The Orbital power beam targeter is a powerful single-use utility artifact that deals damage in a wide radius for a short duration.
Acquisition
Orbital power beam targeters cannot be crafted. They can only be acquired through trade or as a quest reward.
Summary
Orbital power beam targeters require manual targeting at a tile or pawn by the player. It takes 3 seconds to activate. Once activated, a massive beam will shoot down from above for approximately 600 ticks (10 secs). Once per activated tick, the beam chooses 4 random tiles in a 15-tile radius of the target, setting them on fire and dealing 65-100 Flame damage to everything within.
It has a targeting range of 45 tiles, and requires a line of sight from the user to the target, i.e. it cannot target through walls but can target over chunks and barricades.
