What you need to know:
"
The IOA (International Oversight Advisory) has set up a top secret base on the moon
powered by a ZPM (Zero-Point Module) - an ancient power source.
Stargate Command has commissioned special crafts called Eagles and a Stargate -
a ring-like device created by the Ancients able to send people through a wormhole - but one
without a protective iris. A separate section on the moon houses a super-hadron collider.
A mysterious device in the catacombs of the moon has just been activated."

Earth-777's moon, somewhere in unknown space

A communication was opened via the Stargate, so Daniel could talk to the newly promoted Colonel Sam Carter on
the Ancients' space travelling city-ship Atlantis, in the Pegasus Galaxy.
"Hello Daniel! How are you? Give my regards to Alan - my cousin!"
"I think we may have activated some ancient device in the catacombs on the moon. I'd like your help, Sam, to try
to understand what it may be", Daniel asked.
"Your description makes it sound like some hyperdrive device tested by the ancients. But different from the
ones we have seen before" Sam answered
"Oh no. I hope it isn't. We may well find ourselves in trouble", Daniel said as the connection started to get
interrupted.
Suddenly everything seemed to go hazy around Daniel and everywhere else on the moon. From earth's point of view,
the moon simply... vanished! Earthquakes started to be felt due to the sudden lack of the moon's pull on the earth.
Koenig insisted he was in charge of the military and it was imperative to find a habitable planet to
settle upon like the one the sensors had picked up.
"But we might find a way back", Daniel said, "Lets not hurry".
"The chance might be lost" Koenig noted."I'm in command here", Daniel insisted.
He conceded that a brief exploration might be in order so a couple of Eagles with Koenig in charge of them
were dispatched to the planet's surface. The Eagles were re-engineered cargo crafts armed with two
staff cannons - colloquially called laser turrets by everyone on Alpha. The staff cannons meant there was no
space for a cloaking device on board unfortunately. The crafts were derived from the Tel'taks
used by the Goa'uld. It was being planned to add extra technology to them, based on Asgard technology, before
BreakAway happened. The reason they used the Eagles rather than just gate to the planet below using the Stargate
was that this planet didn not have a Stargate, so they had no other choice.
Back at Stargate Command, General Landry was overseeing the efforts in trying to determine what had happened
to the moon and to find whether it still existed or not. Both Colonel Carter and Rodney McKay from the
Atlantis base were sent to earth to help the best minds on earth who were attempting to do the impossible.
Due the moon's disappearance there had been initial earthquakes and even an asian tsunami. The world had
been shocked, yet this phenomenon had been explained by various theories, including spontaneous wormhole
generation. Anything that would help people cope with the situation. Lovers all over the world missed the
moon...
Mists swirled across the alien planet they had called affectionately Terra Nova. The Eagles began to touch down near some woods and the away team
started to explore the area. Meanwhile everyone on Alpha in Main Mission was watching this landing.
Daniel communicated with Koenig on his mobile, asking whether they had seen any signs of life.
Suddenly there was some lightning and all contact was lost with the Away team and their Eagles.
Alpha went on Red Alert status, as ordered by Daniel. Something had happened to those men.
Another Eagle was sent with Dr Helena Russell and Daniel Jackson himself on board. They landed and
retrieved the men - who were unconscious still - and the Eagles of the first away team.
They found another man with the away team - who was presumed dead for five years. This man was
the late husband of Dr Helena Russell. How he got on this planet was anybody's idea. He had been
a member of a Stargate team for some time until he was presumed dead on an off-world mission, but
not on this world.
Back on Moonbase Alpha, the unconscious men were all taken to sickbay, and taken care of. All men
had a monitor which indicated their condition.
Helena explained to Koenig about how she had gotten to know about her husband's involvement in
Stargate Command. Koenig knew how that mission had gone wrong. It was radiation in the pel'tak,
which is the bridge of a Ha'tak mothership which SG-6 had taken control of, that had killed
him and others from the SG-6 team at the time. It had gone horribly wrong. They were in orbit
around the planet P5X-4847 and that world was millions of miles away. The moon was in orbit around the alien
world. Meanwhile, the instruments were indicating Dr Russell's husband Lee had no brain activity at all.
Dr Daniel Jackson held a meeting in the board room, to discuss the current situation. Sandra Benes,
communications officer I, said there was still time to continue with Project Exodus and evacuate
Alpha completely. Even Paul Morrow, chief communications officer, agreed with her. Jackson disagreed,
as did Koenig. Victor would decide later. He looked at some blood samples from Lee and was puzzled.
Nothing was unusual.
Daniel explained also how the Stargate was not operating normally. Something was interfering with its normal operation,
it could not dial out at all. Perhaps the "gate address" for this location, Terra Nova, was "blocked out" from the
Stargate network for some reason which only the Ancients who were the gate-builders knew...
After some time, Lee woke up and was talking to Helena. At first all he could say was
"Hell-en-ah". She explained how the moon had broken
away from earth lately and their present location. Suddenly lightning came out of Lee and hit
Helena. She passed out straight away.
After some more tests, it was clear to Victor that Lee had no body heat. And a few minutes later,
he had body heat once more. His body changed from dead to alive again in a few minutes.
Victor was thinking that Lee had drained some of Helena's lifeforce to do this process.
While Victor, Daniel and Koenig were discussing this, Lee attacked the guard outside sickbay and escaped.
Soon he was arrested again, and was taken to Dr Jackson's office.
After some further investigation, Victor discovers by analysing Lee's body's electromagnetic fields,
that Lee's body contains minute amounts of antimatter - antiprotons. "It's decaying in moments, but more is
getting created every few seconds", Victor explained to Daniel and Koenig.
"Wouldn't Lee explode if he had anti-matter within him?" Koenig asked.
"No, there's only enough antimatter to turn on a light bulb", Victor answered.
Lee told Daniel Jackson, "All the cosmos is yours but not this world. That is what aliens want you to know."
"Why should we even take care of what you are saying?" Koenig commented "We should just commence Project Exodus.."
"No do not land on the planet. It is a gateway to the antimatter universe. You would all be destroyed." Lee answered back.
"I think we should study the situation further before proceeding", Victor said.
"Indeed we should not." Commissioner Simmonds said as he entered Dr Daniel Jackson's office.
"Let's just send another away team and we will see what happens."
"I really disagree. There is something unusual on that world, we shouldn't have found Lee there anyway. We must complete a
full analysis of his body, too, before proceeding." Daniel replied.
"I'm the highest ranking official here, so I will decide. We send another away team." Simmonds barked.. He would have his way
then.
Later on, Helena was speaking to Lee in sickbay. He was sad that it had come to this. He really was sorry. Things would go back for the away
year, he said. It was difficult for Helena. He had been dead, so she had believed, and now he was back in her life. But was this
Lee or what... The body changes which were visible in the scans they had done had amazed all of them. He was not a normal human
any more. But he still was Lee, her husband.
"I had died, Helena. I was in a beautiful place. Full of light and colour. Then something happened. I was sent back. The aliens
- the Tesseracts - had reconstructed me. Though not completely human as I was before. I have some amounts of anti-matter within
me. I die every now and then and burst out anti-matter. I'm not safe here. I may destroy your systems. Please allow me to go back
to the planet. I will have to live my life there, Helena."
So the new away team landed on the planet Terra Nova, together with Lee. Daniel Jackson had insisted he be allowed to go. Soon after the Eagle started
to have electrical failures. The team began to detect various neutrino and other anti-matter emissions from the planet. While they were
discussing this, earthquakes started to be felt and everything started to fall apart. The cockpit console was burning and contact
was lost with Alpha.
Alpha detected various explosions on the surface and soon, the away team and their Eagle were no more.
"The explosions are increasing in intensity. Soon they will reach Alpha and we will explode too." Victor explained to Dr Jackson and Koenig.
"There is only one thing we can do. It's not safe to evacuate Alpha using our Eagles, we will end up exploding too. As the Stargate is still
not working, We must try to reactivate the hyperspace device. Koenig, go and reactivate it", Daniel said.
So Koenig quickly took the travel tube to the catacombs area. He went and touched the hyperspace device which had been left behind
by the Ancients. Suddenly all went hazy throughout the moonbase, and the moon disappeared from its present space. When it reappeared
elsewhere, it was somewhere plain dark - with no stars around.
Helena thought, this was it then. Lee was really dead now. But where was this place, with no stars, just a nothingness or complete
void. The Stargate aboard Moonbase Alpha was not working at all, even here. Where did they end up?
