- "Hell."
- ―Colonel David Telford[src]
P3D-042 as designated by the Tau'ri cartouche, is a planet in the Milky Way galaxy with a Stargate. No one knows the planet's original name, but it is referred to as Hell by Lucian Alliance recruits.
Overview[]
The planet is a desolate, dry wasteland with a quarry. In the mine's depths, there are pools of hot lava. The planet also has a ringed moon and bright yellow sun. (SGU: "Icarus 3")
History[]
The planet is used as a naquadah mine and a breaking ground for new recruits to the Lucian Alliance.
When Colonel David Telford went undercover to infiltrate the Lucian Alliance, he was taken to P3D-042 to work the naquadah mines.
At some point, graduation day came and Telford and the other miners emerged from the mine to face combat with one another. The ten strongest ones would go through the Stargate with Balint and Herrer. Those who would participate would fight to the death to prove survival of the fittest. Those who wouldn't fight would be allowed to live but would have to stay in the mines.
Telford survived graduation day but his friend Wilfon didn't. Telford then left the planet. (SGU: "Icarus 3")
