Carter pinpoints the world, she and Daniel 'gate there and are picked up by Transportation rings. Anise of the Tok'ra throws him a secret bone by saying she will not risk exposing a covert operative on a Goa'uld-occupied world, even though a Tel'tak is within a day or so of Earth. Daniel Jackson contacted allies capable of spaceflight. Unfortunately, the missiles don't have enough thrust and one breaks away from its mounting, hits the glider causing some damage, forcing O'Neill and Teal'c to reduce life support to freezing temperatures and very low oxygen levels.ĭr.
after a very long time.Īffected by the time lag it takes for radio signals to reach the X-301, Major Samantha Carter and Major Paul Davis at the SGC - with O'Neill and Teal'c on the glider - collaborate on a plan to slingshot them around Jupiter: The rocket motors of the AIM 120A air-to-air missiles, never fired during the weapons test, are still under their control.
Apophis' recorded voice states that he installed booby traps (aka Recall devices) in his gliders, so none of his betrayers would be able to use his craft, and they would return to his homeworld. Once they're moving at a million miles an hour through space, propulsion shuts down. I repeat, we have lost control and cannot eject. "We are no longer in control of the vehicle. Colonel Jack O'Neill joins Teal'c in the X-301, but they overshoot the attack run, heading directly out into space. The next test is aerial combat, with the SGC serving as Mission Control Center. General Maurice Vidrine is impressed (though not as much by O'Neill's sense of humor.) It can achieve escape velocity with virtually no G-forces for the pilots, and even Carter doesn't fully understand how it works. Teal'c is test-flying the X-301 Interceptor, an experimental United States Air Force fighter assembled from parts of two of Apophis' Death Gliders (recovered after Apophis' attack on Earth) and human tech. However, the Glider has a life of its own, when a Recall device installed by Apophis sends the ship back to Chulak, which will take several hundred years at their current speed, and they only have a few days of oxygen. Teal'c and Colonel Jack O'Neill test a Death Glider they acquired from Apophis in the past.
