As an inspiring scientist in Atlantis. Jacob invents two new machines. A dark matter generator and a teleportation device. He was forced to skip all tests when Atlantis was attacked by a powerful enemy. In his rush; he put most of the power from the dark matter generator into the teleporter. He awoke in the middle of space. He scanned for any planets in his surroundings and only found one. The ship was damaged and he needed repairs, so he went to the planet. When he landed; he was attacked shortly after.
