Stargate SG-1

Stargate SG-1 is an American television series.

Summary
A team of explorers use alien technology to travel the galaxy.

Antarctic Connections
Antarctica was the place the Ancients stationed Atlantis. When they departed, they left behind the original, far more ancient Stargate there. When Colonel Jack O'Neill and Captain Samantha Carter emerged through this "beta gate", they believed they had been transported to an ice planet, but they were actually about fifty miles from McMurdo Station.

After discovering the Stargate in Antarctica, a research team was set up to determine the impact of this information against current knowledge of the Ancients and the gate network. This team found the remains of two Jaffa and the preserved body of a frozen being of the first Ancient race, or so it was believed.

Two years later, SG-1 uncovered the Atlantis outpost, the remaining station where the lost city of Atlantis once existed.

Antarctica was the location of the final battle of Earth's forces against Anubis. With Anubis disposed for the time being, talks were formed with eleven countries around Earth about the Antarctic Treaty and its relation to the scientific research that was to be conducted by the United States of America.
