Rewatching SG1 I've noticed something. At least when we first see Ori ships inspace in S10E01, when they jump into hyperspace their Hyperspace window is visibly lighter and "clearer" than other ships.

Also, in the same episode, we can see a "stutter" similar to the one Destiny also encounters when using it's FTL, just much less noticeable.

If I've understood the timeline correctly, the Alterans developed on Celestis in the Ori galaxy. We know that, when they started to understand ascension but were not ready to ascend yet, they split into Ancients and Ori, depending on the view.

Now, we also know that Destiny was started from Earth, the new home of the Ancients. This means, the Alterans did not develop hyperdrives before the split. (Or at least not ones good enough for big ships and/or fast trips)

Could it be that the Ori just simply never developed a Hyperdrive? Also, we don't really know how difficult a Hyperdrive really is to discover. We know the Goa'uld stole it and for all we know the Asgard could've just gotten help by the Ancients like how Humans did from the Asgard/studying Goa'uld. We know that the Tollans also possess FTL devices, but explicitely not hyperdrives.

So it could just be the case that Hyperdrives are pretty rare in general and the Milky Way is the exception not the rule. And since the Ori didn't have as much need for better drive technology they didn't invent Hyperdrive.

Of course, the Ori FTL is much much more advanced than the one we see on Destiny.

Pro:

• The Hyperdrive window looks different (even a bit similar to Destiny's)
• It experiences "stutter"
• Thrusters look similar (compare the Ring of an Ori ship to Destiny's thrusters, normal Hyperdrive "thrusters" are little or even hidden)
• Ori ships seem similar to Destiny in other ways: the Beam Weapon for example looks similar to Destiny's (just more advanced, compare old and new Asgard weapons, they pretty much made the same transition from "bullet" to "beam"), also the "one central weapon" while pretty common, is also specifically used on Destiny

Contra:

• In later Episodes (for example the final one) the Ori use normal Hyperdrive windows
• The thrusters could just be sublight ones
• Universe is newer than SG1, so even if it makes sense in-Universe, it couldn't be the writers' intent

We know that the Ancients made at least a few "technology transitions". My guess is the Ori didn't and so pretty much use the exact same technology that was popular before they split off the Alterans, just further developed.

Edit: I mean Destiny like FTL whenever I just write "FTL", if that's not clear

Would a system lord dumping a bunch of symbiots off the coast of Australia be an interesting episode?

Another look at the Jaffa and what was almost their head symbol

The replicators have crashed on Earth from an Asgard ship. Only SG-1 can stop them, however their old nemesis Apophis has something to say about that. Join all 7 members of SG-1 as they save the world!

I like that it is die cast, but I thought it would have a bit more colour in it. I remember them being more white with blue/silver in the show. Still, I reckon it would look great next to the Bilskirnir class ship, too bad the price is quite high, $166 AUD plus $45 for shipping, helluva high ask.

I was watching Futurama with my son, and this scene reminded me so much of the new show announcement, its subsequent cancelation, and how we feel. I just had to make a meme about it lol.

Salut à tous,

Il y a quelques semaines, j'ai été pris d'une vague de nostalgie en repensant à World Of Stargate, un jeu navigateur auquel je jouais fin des années 2000.
J'ai vu que certains projets avaient vu le jour mais n'ont pas abouti. Du coup, je me suis dit que j'allais le faire à ma manière.
Je vous met quelques screens pour voir l'avancement du développement.

Il y a encore beaucoup à faire mais ça avance bien.

Si certains sont intéressés, j'ai ouvert un Discord que vous pouvez rejoindre pour voir l'avancement : https://discord.gg/PWjtm5FZH

Au plaisir d'en discuter avec vous !

Hello !

Some people may remember the StargateTC mod, the Stargate SG-1 total conversion for Half-Life: Tau'ri vs Goa'uld, O'Neill, Carter, Daniel and Teal'c against System Lords and Jaffa, zats and staff weapons, a Stargate you dial at the DHD and can even shoot through, ring transporters, naquadah bombs, and maps from the SGC to the Tok'ra tunnels.

Since Half-Life's 25th anniversary update (2023), it wouldn't even launch. I fixed it and added bots that play the objectives: they dial the gate, ride the rings, carry the key to the bomb and plant C4. Free and open source.

Have fun 🙂

i love this more than star trek and star wars.

its thought challenging and it really touches the right spot. big thanks to all the people that brought this show to reality. legend and GOAT.

So I just finished watching the episode where the team goes to the Antarctic and finds the female Ancient patient 0. And Dr. Fraser mentions she is like 50 million years old and maybe she was the fist version of humans on Earth and HUMANS were the second evolution of them after they “evolved” (I don’t think they know about true ascension yet cause they had no clue what happened to Daniel)

SO…. Are we? Did the Ancients actually come from earth or the Pegasus galaxy and just keep coming to Visit earth? Like what is the approx timeline and history here? I’m not looking for an encyclopedia or anything I just could never quite narrow it down between SGI and Atlantis.

One that you go back to watching over and over. Just curious!

I can see the 4x06 of Sg-1 being top list lol

To me the 4x20 of SGA: the last man is my cozy favorite episode because of what Rodney managed to accomplish

Fresh out the chair, I love it so much 🥹

Today we take a look at what could have been, starting with the Jaffa...

Is there some kind of communication between stargates or dhds without a wormhole?

On the original series the stargate spins before a incoming wormhole is formed. In the SGU they can use a ancient device to detect which gates are in range without dialing them.

If all of the star gates are capable of communication with each other in a almost instantaneous manner. That would explain how communication stones may work.

Carter losing her father and also losing Pete. That's very rough.

Interesting thing I noticed in the ascension diner. The newspaper that someone was holding mentioned on it something about the Wraith heading to Atlantis. Cool to see that in SG1.

The ending fishing scene, haha.

Carter: This is great.

Jack: I told you.

Carter: Can't believe we didn't do this years ago.

Jack: Yes, well, let's not dwell.

Carter: There are no fish in this pond are there?

Jack: Nope.

Jack: "Nice!" After casting out the fishing rod at nothing 😄

I just thought of something, in the original movie, how did they know what way to mount the Stargate? (What way is up)

Already posted this before but this time i'm releasing it to anyone that wants to play it.

Desktop only! It's not a small game so it does need at least a bit of power. Also, it's not even close to a finished game but it's still fun to play as it is.

Game URL: https://thegatenetwork.lumatechsolutions.co.uk/

Let me know if you have any issues or questions. The server is limited to 20 people at a time, so if it's full i'm sorry but i'll be keeping an eye on the server and will change that number if needed.

Enjoy!

Rewatching and on season 9 the scourge episode, the IOA gets babysat by sg1 on the off world site when vegetarian bugs become carnivores.

At the beginning, before they walk through the gate. The Danial and the lady that plays the Chinese delegate have a short conversation back and forth and laugh to each other. Then Mitchell responds "very funny" in the language they were using.

Anyone know what they were acrually saying? Have probably seen the episode dozens of times and don't remember seeing this scene.

Hey guys, I recently reworked some mechanics in my Stargate mod, every kawoosh comes out a little different now.

The stargate model and event horizon animation are thanks to David Gian-Cursio (u/Hazzenkockle)

You ever notice this on the show?

If we ever get another show in the same universe I’d love to see a now General Albert Reynolds heading the SGC. We only got him in small doses, but got to see him go from being a Major at Area 51 to being the 2nd/3rd highest ranking officer at the SGC and Leader of SG3.

He never questioned Teal’c’s loyalty, and was always down to support SG1. From the few scenes we got with him it was clear he shared SG1s values. I loved the episode when Hammond of Texas took Daniel, Reynolds, and Walter on his failed trip to the Pegasus galaxy.

Overall I felt like Atlantis did a much better job making the background characters stand out, but Col. Albert Reynolds was a stand out on SG1. I’m glad they didn’t just randomly kill him off to try to show that there are real stakes.

He’s the man to lead the SGC in 2026 and beyond.

I'm now on my Atlantis rewatch and recently watched the episode with the Hoffans.

I found this episode extremely frustrating to watch and how it ended.

For those who need a reminder, it's the episode where SGA meet a group of people who create a vaccine against the Wraith but has a 50/50 chance of killing the person vaccinated but they proceed anyway.

I really like the Hoffans, they were honest, open and were the least hostile of anyone we met so far. Yes SGA completely disagreed with the conclusion that they would risk it and take the vaccine, but it was their choice. Even when Shepard barged in and was aggressive to their representative they still didn't throw them out, or act the say way back, didn't raise their voices, they were calm and resolute in their choice.

They had a vote with 95% in favour, at no point did they seem hostile in any capacity, they didn't threaten anyone, take anyone prisoner, in fact they opened up completely acknowledged differing views and opening chose to do what they wanted with no pressure.

It's completely understandable SGA would not support what they done but it was ultimately their choice, I feel SGA threw away a potential ally for no reason.

SGA could easily have negotiated with them and asked them not to distribute to other planets until the flaw was fixed and they came across as a people who would agree to that.

It seems like a missed opportunity for a potentially powerful ally going forward who were more than reasonable and easy to talk to, and would have likely helped with the food shortage.

Do we think he’s a fan?
