Their goal is to try to determine the purpose of the mysterious ninth symbol of the Stargate, which they've never been able to lock in. In going through the Stargate, they are transported not to Earth, but to a very old apparently uninhabited spacecraft. With the group's commander injured, Lt. Scott and the chief scientist - Dr. Nicholas Rush - lead the exploration of the craft. Several areas of the ship have been damaged but it is basically functional. They are able to learn that they are, in fact, billions of light years from Earth. Part 2: Tensions rise as the new arrivals explore the ship. Dr. Rush comes under suspicion with his secretive behavior and attitude. He determines however that the ship is losing air. They find a damaged room that is partly exposed to space but the problem is that the door can only be closed from the inside. Who is prepared to sacrifice their life for the others?

Eli suggest that they use the stasis pods for the crew and jump to the next galaxy, a trip that will take three years.

Scott when using the stones which led him to suspect that Col. Young's wife was having an affair with Telford. As a result of that affair, Young's investigation will be suspect. Rush returns to Earth via the stones inhabiting Telford's body and Young returns as well to brief General O'Neill. On board ship, Telford knows something is up.

After a rocky start to their relationship, Ronon and Teal'c return to Earth, via the series of Stargates and a Midway Station, that McKay had previously designed.
