| [[File:Lightaliens.jpg|thumb]]Small, unassuming balls of light, not much smaller than marbles, inhabiting the moon of [[M4C-862]]. The creatures are capable of traveling through objects at will, and appear to possess a rudimentary, instinctual intelligence.
| |
| The entities of light are perfectly harmless and do not pass through mortal flesh unless one of two factors occurs:
| |
|
| |
| 1. [[Cadet Hailey's theory]]: The planet's energy fields are in a state of magnetic flux when a rogue object, either a small asteroid or meteor, is pulled over the poles, causing the light aliens to go into an angry frenzy.
| |
|
| |
| 2. [[Major Carter's theory]]: The beings are capable of communicating and relaying threats to one another. Not only does this mean they're intelligent, but they are also terratorial and possibly sentient.
| |
|
| |
| Either theory is likely, but the S.G. teams being attacked by the creatures were not going to wait around and find out. When penetrating the body, the light beings essentially "cook" the surface of the flesh, and possibly the inside of the body as well. Repeated attacks can be fatal. Their first victim was a scientist named [[Thompson]].
| |
|
| |
| The S.G. teams determined an erratic disturbance in an electromagnetic field, such as a human's, repels the creatures. [[Jack O'Neill]] volunteered to be zapped by a [[zat'ni'katel]] in order to reach the [[Stargate]] and dial [[Earth]].
| |
|
| |
| For a matter of minutes O'Neill's bio-electric alteration repelled the creatures, but not long enough. It took a rescue by [[Teal'c]] with the zat gun to continue to fight off the creatures until the Stargate was active. Once done, the enormous super-conductor created it's own, greater field of electromagnetism, allowing the teams to escape.
