Heliopolis is a fictional planet in the Milky Way on the series Stargate SG-1.
Heliopolis, is the nickname of the planet, designated PB2-908 on which Dr. Ernest Littlefield became stranded in 1945. He was sent through the gate during one of Professor Langford's experiments in trying to uncover the mysteries of the Stargate. During the experiment, the gate shut down leaving Ernest trapped on the planet for over 50 years.
On Heliopolis, the stargate was located inside a castle on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean. Dr. Littlefield was able to determine that it was once a meeting place for four great races to exchange knowledge and culture. The races were later identified as The Asgard, The Nox, the Furlings and the Ancients. Ernest discovered a DHD-like device inside one of the castles rooms. It activated a holographic projection of the basic elements, a universal language that Daniel Jackson believed held enormous meaning, possibly the answers to everything.
When SG-1 visited the planet in "The Torment of Tantalus", the castle was on the verge of crumbling under the force of a storm. The DHD fell through the floor and into the ocean. The stargate and the remainder of the castle followed shortly, just after SG-1 managed to manually dial the gate and return with Ernest to Earth.
