In 1994, mankind discovered a network of Stargates that took them to the farthest reaches of the universe and unlocked some of history's greatest secrets. Since that time, they've carried us through travels to numerous planets and battles against relentless villains. They've brought to the surface the wonders of Atlantis and led us to conflict with the dreaded Wraith. Now, humanity is about to cross a new threshold with the activation of a new Stargate that links to incredible Ancient technology. Welcome to Stargate Universe. SG•U tells the epic story of a band of soldiers, scientists and civilians who must fend for themselves as they are forced through a special nine chevron Stargate when Icarus base comes under attack. The desperate survivors emerge on an Ancient ship, locked on an unknown course billions of light years from Earth. The Destiny has been travelling for thousands of years, and now humans have been placed upon it with no idea of the ship's mission, or or a way to get back home. They're lead by the despised Dr Nicholas Rush (Robert Carlyle) and the injured Colonel Everett Young (Louis Ferrera) with no map, no mission and barely a hope of ever getting back to Earth.

He has by no...
