The Icarus base was a Tau'ri facility located 21 light-year from Earth, on P4X-351, financed and used by the IOA in order to dial the only 9 chevron address found in the Ancient database. It has been destroyed along with the planet by Lucian Alliance forces in 2009.

"Air", Part 1 (2009)
USS Hammond brings several people from Earth on the Icarus base; Senator Alan Armstrong, his daughter Chloe who is also his executive assistant, Eli Wallace who found the equation of the puzzle of Dakara in the Prometheus game, and Dr. Nicholas Rush. Soon after their arrival, the base is attacked by Lucian Alliance forces. When Colonel Everett Young tries to defend the base on the ground, Colonel David Telford takes a F-302 to defend the airspace. Inside the base, Rush begs Wallace to find a solution for the 9 chevron address as the planet's core is in the verge to blow. Wallace finds out that the address has to be entered as this, with Earth as point of origin. Rush orders Sergeant Hunter Riley to stop the ongoing dialing sequence and to begin the 9 chevron sequence.
Aboard Hammond, Major Kevin Marks reads massive energy peaks on P4X-351. Colonel Samantha Carter orders do bring back all the F-302s including Colonel Telford team's. When Colonel Young learns that Earth has not been called but the 9 chevron address, he comes back in the corridors and orders Lieutenant Matthew Scott to make sure everybody takes the maximum of supplies for the evacuation. Young, with the help of Master Sergeant Ronald Greer, uses explosives to free Senator Armstrong and other base members who have been trapped in a wall collapsing.
Everybody, with their loads and Scott as lead, pass through the Stargate and retrieve themselves stranded in a remote Ancient vessel, several millions light-years away from Earth. Colonel Young is the last to "pass" through the wormhole, the very moment before the planet exploses, destroying all the Alliance attack forces and two F-302s.
Notes
Behind the scenes
- Icarus base set has been built on Stage 5 Bridge Studios at Vancouver, British Columbia, the very set of the SGC control and briefing rooms, which has been dismantled.
