During an expedition on a dead planet SG-1 find an orb that continually sends out electromagnetic signals. The team assume that it is a time capsule. Enthralled by its power source that seems to have lasted for over a thousand years, they take it back to Stargate control with them where they begin tests on the object. However, during the tests the object heats up to an incredible temperature, propels bolts at everything and sends out an alien organism which is affecting everything, animated or not. When the end looks nigh for the team and the project Carter suggests that they try to communicate with the object by surrendering O'Neill's body to it. Will this work or have they made a huge mistake.
