Decisionstargate: Infinity : Season 1 Episode 1 -
Thorne is brought to a sub-Antarctic facility where a "Decision Engine" —a piece of Ancient technology recently unearthed—has been integrated into the Stargate. This device doesn't just calculate wormhole coordinates; it calculates probability . It has identified one specific planet, Aethelgard , that holds the "Seed" required to stabilize Earth. However, the Gate refuses to lock. It requires a "Decision-Maker"—someone whose neural patterns match the Ancient creators.

The Stargate behind them is buried in silt. They are millions of light-years from home, with no way back, and the "Decision Engine" is now embedded in Thorne’s own consciousness.
Thorne doesn't choose either. Using his "unorthodox" instincts, he interfaces with the Ancient tech manually. He feels the vastness of the Stargate Network —a psychic map of billions of souls. He realizes the "Decision Engine" isn't a calculator; it's a test of intent .
The story opens on , a pilot who washed out of the Air Force for "unorthodox decision-making." He’s recruited by a shadow wing of the SGC (Stargate Command) for a mission that shouldn't exist. Earth’s core is cooling rapidly—a side effect of decades of Naquadah experimentation—and the planet has less than a year of habitability left.
