- "Kheb is an untouched wilderness with great mountains and a single temple in a valley distant from the Stargate."
- —Bra'tac
Kheb is one of the many planets in the Milky Way to hold a Stargate, and was where Oma Desala had established a retreat to teach others the ways of ascension. Long ago, Jaffa who could no longer take a prim'ta discovered Kheb. Believing that it was instructions on how to enter the afterlife, they told small numbers of their elders. Soon, however, the Goa'uld discovered learned of the planet and sent a group there, which was subsequently destroyed. Afterwards, Kheb was declared off limits and its Stargate address taken off official lists; however its address was still passed down in Jaffa legend. Amonet later hid Shifu on Kheb to hide him from the System Lords. While searching for him SG-1 learned of its location, and traveled to the planet. Kheb served as the site of Daniel Jackson first becoming known to the Ancients, and where would he begin his long journey towards ascension. (SG1: "Maternal Instinct")
