  • Setting

    Stargate Atlantis takes place in the present time. In the original series, an object was discovered that allows people and equipment to travel between planets by wormhole. The Atlantis expedition has gone to the Pegasus Galaxy to live in and explore a city that is millions of years old, constructed by the now-extinct predecessor to the human race: The Ancients. The explorers, on their first mission to another planet, accidentally awoke a race of humanoids called the Wraith, who feed on human beings. The Atlantis expedition focus turns toward keeping the Wraith from killing humans in the Pegasus Galaxy, and preventing them from finding Earth.GateWorld: Atlantis
