Background

Daniel Jackson stays there at the end of the film with his wife (Sha'uri in the film, Sha're in the series), the daughter of the Abydonian leader Kasuf. In Stargate SG-1 it is among the first worlds the Goa'uld brought humans to. Anubis destroys it in season 6, and Oma Desala helps its people ascend in Full Circle.
