M7G-677

From SGCommand

M7G-677 was a planet in the Pegasus galaxy. Five hundred years before the Atlantis expedition reached Pegasus, an Electromagnetic field generator, powered by a ZPM, was constructed as a means of protection against the Wraith. Because it could only cover a small area of the planet, a suicide pact was made as a measure of population control. To prevent overpopulation, each individual would kill themselves at the age of twenty five. As such, the planet was inhabited almost exclusively by children, with only a few teens and some twenty year olds leading the planet.

Atlantis 1, while exploring the planet, discovered the truth about their protection, and Doctor McKay was able to expand the field without a significant power loss. Later, Dr. Zelenka was sent to help repair the field, and appeared to have been accepted into the tribe. In 2008, the device had further troubles. (ATL: "Childhood's End", "Critical Mass", "Outcast")
