*In 1928, near the Great Pyramid in Giza, Egypt, archaeologists uncover the "Find of the Century" - a series of coverstones decorated with complicated hieroglyphics. Beneath the coverstones is a giant metallic/quartz ring - The StarGate - which is determined to be ... not from this earth! Having been hidden in a nuclear missile silo, the StarGate is now a Top Secret military project. After years of failed attempts by scientists to unlock the StarGate, a renegade "wunderkind" named Daniel Jackson succeeds in deciphering the symbols and turning on the StarGate! Along with a military team led by Colonel Jack O'Neil, Jackson discovers that the StarGate is a doorway to another universe which is ruled by a powerful Pharaoh named Ra... The Sun God.
