Avnil

P3X-513 is the designation of a planet first explored by Earth in 1997. The planet, without proper atmospheric protection, is greatly exposed to UV radiation, and is thus dangerous for people to travel outdoors during the day.

While exploring P3X-513, SG-9 members Jonas Hanson and Baker succumbed to power and control when they were thought to be gods by the P3X-513 natives. Hanson and Baker rose to power in the society and forced the natives into slave labor to build shrines.

The other two members of SG-9, Connor and Frakes, did not succumb to the lust of power and attempted to escape. Frakes was killed by Hanson and burned while Connor was able to hide. Later, SG-1 arrived on P3X-513 to determine the lack of communication between SG-9 and the SGC. The team discovered Hanson using the natives for slave labor and attempted to stop him. Samantha Carter and Jack O'Neill were captured and used by Hanson to activate an Ancient force field device that would provide UV protection for the natives. However, the planet had two of these devices, the other of which was discovered by Teal'c and Daniel Jackson.

Lowering the Stargate into a horizontal position, Hanson threatened to kill O'Neill and the recaptured Connor by pushing them into the gate with Earth's Iris closed, even though Carter had determined how to work the device. Intervention by Daniel Jackson and the native Jamala prevented the execution and the second device was activated, showing the natives that it wasn't Hanson who made the devices work. The natives threw Hanson through the gate, killing him and released SG-1, allowing them to return home. (SG1: "The First Commandment")
