"GHOST FROM THE PAST"(part one)

SG1 (bar Tealc who is on Chulack in another diplomatic power struggle) are in the briefing room with Doctor Tabbot. Sam is currently speaking to the room about the race that had built the space station.

"The thing is sir just from the fact the station was completely new to me brings u the idea that there was a fifth very advanced race in our galaxy, not just the four races."

Doctor Tabbot is not at all happy with this as Sam is the ISGC's top scientist

"Are you sure ?"

"Yes ma'am. Certain."

The commander turns to Daniel

"Dr. Jackson is there any evidence of this on the planet below the station?"

"Well you see the thing is sir there is nothing on the planet below. Just swamp and trees….."

Vala butts in partly to annoy Daniel

"Actually sir I seen some ruins behind the forest but it could have been nothing."

The General's attention is now on Vala who has shocked the room that she noticed something Daniel and Sam missed.

"Ok then if its something you'll be coming back to tell me."

"But ma'am I have to finish the final testing for the -"

"I don't want buts Col you can take SG3 and SG7 with you."

The team (from here on unless specified means Carter, Mitchell, Daniel and Vala) heads through the gate onto the planet where they first encountered one of the space station to look at the ruins. When they reach the ruins the team finds a temple with a series of supports with a strange language on them. Sam gets worried as Daniel is looking very confused at this strange language.

"It looks familiar Sam but I cant put my finger on it"

"To me it looks like a cross of Ancient and Asgard."

"No! it's a derivation of Celtic! Now I know this much it wont take me too long to translate this."

Sam and Daniel both jump when they here Vala calling from another room.

"Guys you might want to see this!"

When SG1 is in the room they cannot believe their eyes. A room filled with what appears to be gate co-ordinates. Sam is looking at them when she realises that they all have eight symbols.

"I think these are to a new galaxy."

The team look stunned a her wondering how she got this conclusion so fast until Daniel realises this too.

"She's right. We had better copy some of these down and take them to Tabbot and quick."

Back at the ISGC Dr Tabbot is looking over SG1's report and she alls the into her office after a phone call to the president.

"I have organised for SG1 to be taken by the Balthamos under the command of Col Wilson to this new galaxy -"

"But ma'am if this is a new galaxy it would be easier to use the Stargate. We have a ZPM now remember?"

"Very true Col but the distance may drain the ZPM and that is something we cannot afford. So we are connecting the ZPM to the Balthamos . The Asgard hyper drive along with the ZPM will be easily able to cross the distance."
