The Alterans' homeworld and the Ori's capital.

Celestis is the homeworld of the Alterans, and so of the Ori, in the Ori's home galaxy. On its plains stands the City of Celestis, seat of the Doci and of the Flames of Enlightenment where the Ori dwelt.

Background

The Alterans who became the Ancients fled it millions of years ago to escape the Ori. Ortus Mallum, the Alterans' original home, is also on Celestis, and so is Ver Eger, a village of Ori worshippers that Daniel Jackson and Vala Mal Doran visit. In Stargate: The Ark of Truth SG-1 find the Ark there.
