MGM/SciFi.com Official Summary
A test of the X-301, an experimental spacecraft adapted from two Goa'uld Death Gliders, goes awry, sending Colonel Jack O'Neill and Teal'c hurtling out of Earth's orbit. As the X-301 streaks through space at a million miles an hour, the SGC struggles to find a way to retrieve it. But after an attempt to alter the spacecraft's course fails, things look grim. Dr. Daniel Jackson seeks the help of offworld allies. He learns that the Tok'ra have a ship capable of reaching O'Neill and Teal'c, but it is on a covert mission in Goa'uld-controlled territory. With time ticking down and the lives of their comrades hanging in the balance, Major Samantha Carter and Daniel must locate the Tok'ra ship, intercept the X-301, and pull off a daring rescue.
