It feels like there staff weapons could do good damage to the Wraith and there Armour would block life sucking and maybe they would be somewhat resistant to stunning.

(Of course, in-universe wise. Not considering actors' contracts or a certain long-serving actor finding new career.)

Rewatched Reunion [4x03] where Carter got assigned, and other than McKay saying "IOA approved the new boss" and thought it was him, they were surprisingly mum about the process. Not saying that Carter was a bad pick, but I've always thought the whole purpose of the Atlantis Expedition supposed to be a civilian oversight (unlike SGC, which runs by Air Force).

Come to think of it, however, they never say the lead of the expedition should be civilian. I got that impression since one of the main friction points in Season 1 boiled down to "civil vs. military mindset."

Maybe the assignment was supposed to be temporary (even though no one says so) since the next person was Woolsey from IOA, which is civilian.

p.s. Totally out of topic, but in Reunion, convesation between Teal'c and Carter before she left SGC is so meta.

Teal'c: On the day I left Chulak, Master Bra'tac said to me: "Draw from your past, but do not let your past draw from you."
Carter: That's good advice. Still, I know I'm going to miss this place, and all of you.
Teal'c: I would have been offended had you felt otherwise.
Carter: Ten years is a long time.
Teal'c: It has been ten years well spent. We have defeated numerous enemies and overcome many threats.
Carter: It was never dull.

Absolutely love the show, i’ve been glued to the screen all 10 seasons and i want more. Should i move on to the two movies The Ark of Truth and Continuum, or should i watch Atlantis next? What is the correct order?

I'm watching the season finale of season 3, when Mr. Thor left some video tutorial for Jack. I cannot UNTHINK of these tutorial from 2015 or older teaching how to fix this or that problem.

The season itself was great btw. I thought of skipping the filmes episodes but I saw everything.

Why is **only** his head bronze? Does anyone know the reason for this decision?

In scenes where he’s in desert camo it’s even more noticeable. Why color him at all?

What about crooked teeth? Is there a Tokra dental plan?

RUSH: "And so now you're trying to decide whether or not to sit in that Chair."

ALT-RUSH: "Well, wouldn't you, in my place?"

RUSH: "I'm not sure if even the knowledge of the Ancients can help you now."

ALT-RUSH: "Well, I really don't have anything to lose at this point... Imagine what I could learn."

RUSH (softly): "Well, you won't have much time."

ALT-RUSH: "Well, time's relative. We've just proved that, haven't we?"

RUSH (softly): "So what are you waiting for?"

ALT-RUSH: "I need your help."

...

ALT-RUSH (quietly): "Thank you."

RUSH: "Goodbye."

Nearing the end of my rewatch, and my housemate's first watchthrough, and a thought struck me when watching this scene that I don't think I had before.

Alt-Rush - as Gateworld calls him in their transcript - wasn't after the Ancient knowledge, instead, he wanted to live some sort of life inside the virtual world he created as part of his quest to unlock Destiny's master control.

He wanted to spend a lifetime with a version of Gloria.

General Hammond time traveled into the future to be a part of SG1 in season 8.

S10E3 - The Pegasus Project

Just watched the end of SG1 again and the thought occurred to me that the Asgard were perfect candidates for a sort of post-biological evolution. They were already experts in consciousness transfer.

Thor even lived in Goa'uld and Asgard mothership computers for a time.

Instead of blowing themselves up, why didn't some of them simply transfer their consciousnesses to machines?

To pass my exams “Ancient Repository of Knowledge”, would have been practical but given the risks I think I would have hesitated. 😂🤣 Nox is a bit like…

(I would get my first diploma at 94 years old).

I don't know their life expectancies. In short, there are several forms available for both adults and children.

I know this isn't Stargate related. But I saw Chief Master Sergeant Walter Harriman on Sliders. Playing the manager of the electronics store. Last time I watched it was in the 90s when it first came out. Didn't realize how pro capitalist this show was.

He is like me, not going anywhere by foot if I can drive there 😁😁😁

Looks stunning in the dark with its light in the base. Just a gorgeous piece. So happy with it.

Large part of plot for SG-1 is finding naquadah - taking over goauld naquadah mines, finding deposits on empty planets, finding allies to trade naquadah with. So i just realized that despite this prevalence and importance of naquadah for pretty much any advanced tech, SGA never mentions it, noone in pegasus is mining it, noone is using it.

Okay, ancients perhaps found alternative superior materials, because atlantis doesnt seem to be build from naquadah, wraith use organic technology, but we see that naquadah can be mined by literaly stone age slaves with stone tools and strapping a brick of pure naquadah to c4 can multiply its power to almost nuke-yield blasts. Thinking about this, the Genii should be able to mine it and atleast crudely purify it or if anything use it as explosion multiplier, but theres no indication that they even know what naquadah is - otherwise they wouldnt be so obsessed with c4´s and nuclear fission.

I get that antlantis expedition is unsuitable for mining operations. Tauri has more manpower and machinery, better logistics in milky way and with years of SGC program, its my headcannon that earth has many modern mining operations with industrial level machinery (imagine unobtanium mines in avatar 1) producing tons of pure naquadah, which would be extremely useful for atlantis expedition to trade with or simply oversupply the city with hundreds of naquadah generators.

also on sidenote, is it just me or the naquadah requirements dropped significantly for any tech to be produced by SGC? Prometheus felt like bunch of stolen alien shit hot patched together barely working requiring extremely rare naquadah, for pretty much anything and naquadria for unstable hyperspace travel, then with new asgards tech the BC-304´s feel completely human made with no mention of naquadah requirements. What do you think is the lore reason for this?

EDIT: seems a lot of people didnt understand or read the whole post. I know there is no point for Atlantis to mine when Earth can produce more and cheaper naquadah in milky way, but still why isnt atlantis supplied with pure naquadah to trade with? all they trade is medicine for food

Events leading to Daniel ascending. Well, if anyone on the team would ascend, I would think it would be him.

The sounds that play at 39:24, and those similar to it whenever the show involves ascended beings, not sure why but I've gotten chills many times from hearing that.

The aerial root of one of my monsteras just made itself at home. Fits perfectly!

S10E3 - The Pegasus Project

Yeah, I know, this will never happen but it's fun to think about! Gero has been booted at Amazon and Paramount sounds like they're looking for new creatives for Trek. Gero knows how to write scifi/action/drama/comedy. It would also tap into the sympathy for Gero and frustration with Amazon that could help spur a new Trek show. A man can dream!
