A Sky Cannon appears as a colossal cannon standing roughly 5 meters (or 15 feet) high, forged with archaic technology. It's believed this legendary device was constructed by a race of people who live in the sky, and just so happened to fall into the hands of Hylians years ago. Needless to say, it's an incredibly rare find. The cannon capable of fully rotating in every direction, and can fire anything from a Goron to a Powder Keg to two dozen normal sized cannonballs from its monstrous gullet. Aiming the cannon can be done in a matter of seconds, and all it needs to fire is a pull of a cord each time. Additional ammunition must be loaded after every shot, of course. Due to the cannon's size and weight, it typically can't be moved without a large vehicle or some extraordinary means.
The cannon is so powerful that it can be used for devastating offensive effect. However, the cannon doesn't harm its projectiles directly, allowing it to be used for long distance travel, so long as the living projectile has some means of slowing his descent. Generally, the distance traveled can be no more than about 10 miles (or 15km) when pushed to the limit.
The Sky Cannon treasure canonically appears in the Zelda series, initially in Twilight Princess. More information about the canonical version of this treasure can likely be found on Zelda Wiki.
