New Athos is a planet in the Pegasus galaxy, and is the third homeworld of the Athosians after Athos and Lantea.
History
The Athosians were moved there after some of the Lanteans from the Tria returned to reclaim Atlantis. However, after the return of the Atlantis expedition, the Athosians chose to stay on the planet, now named New Athos, rather than move back to Lantea. They had managed to make a permanent settlement there. However, a year later the Wraith Michael Kenmore sent an army of his Hybrids to attack and kidnap the Athosians. The army of at least 50 men attacked during the middle of the night, and kidnapped all the Athosians there. However, the planet was then overrun with Bola Kai.
The next day, Teyla Emmagan and Dr. Jennifer Keller came to meet the Athosians. They noticed that the settlement was deserted and discovered the Bola Kai. The following day, the First Atlantis Reconnaissance Team managed to drive the Bola Kai from the planet. The Expedition later sent a forensics team to learn about what happened to the Athosians. However, about six months later, the Athosians were found and rescued on another planet, and moved back to New Athos.

Guide eventually reveals that he had his alliance declare New Athos off-limits to the Wraith. Guide explains that he didn't want to get into a dispute with the Tau'ri over the territory and the Athosians had been so badly culled, they weren't worth a fight. However, after the fall of Todd's alliance and the rise of Queen Death, this protection disappears. (SGA: "The Lost")
New Athos eventually becomes home to the surviving Manarians and others whose homeworlds were destroyed by Queen Death. However, the planet is inhospitable and the Athosians had dropped beneath genetic viability. As such, Teyla suggests a scouting mission to Emege on Athos, the original Athosian homeworld, in the hopes that it contains an Ancient shield generator, thus allowing the Athosians to resettle their original homeworld. After discovering the truth behind the fall of Emege to the Wraith, Teyla and McKay return to New Athos with Teyla certain that her people will choose to resettle Athos.
