    Industrialized aplha site

    I feel that earth should divert a certain amount of money to Industrializing alpha site. I mean...alpha site is where earth can rebuild its society or a haven for the tau'ri, what is the use when it is just a base with one or two f-302, at least have shipyards or factories from a private sector, like colson industries. And start building homes or developing town structures at the very least, so that if people really evacauted to alpha site, it won't become a refugee camp depending our allies for support.

    but if you can protect the planet ur on then the alpha site isn't so important. but you have a point, it should have a shipyard and a small town

      I think that it is important to develop the alpha site not for a new home incase earth is attacked but for a colony, at some point on earth there is not going to be enough room for every one let only enough food so why not colonise so planets out there to produce food, and everything else we need. I think the industrialization of the alpha site would be a good move. If its was reality but in the stargate universe it just won't move the story on so i doubt it will ever happen.

        I agree with you. It shouldn't be their main focus but doing that has some benefits. If ever they have to evacuate they'll have the infrastructure there to make it much more successful and they'll be able to support a larger group of evacuees.

        It's a tough job though. It takes a lot of time and resources and the SGC budget has been reduced.

          I think it's kind of funny that people don't realize how much food this planet actually produces. There hasn't been a famine since, I believe, 1914 in India that was natually occuring. (read that as: Governments causing their people to starve when local food supplies were disrupted and new supplies were made available from other nations or sources)

          I totally agree, though, that the Alpha Site, as well as other planets should be colonized. Hell, make an inhabitable moon (maybe the one from paradise lost) into a prison. Keep order on it from space, and when a sentence is up, Asgard beam the newly free person onto a ship.

            Yeah, like that moon with the living lights. The little balls of energy. All you need is to put an EM Field generator on the planet and bingo. Now that Jack is in a higher place of power he can push for the establishment of a colony more strongly. We can't secure our place in the galaxy until we populate more than our own world.

              A prison moon? Sounds like a good idea but that's a step closer to NE'TU (hell) (and being gould like?).

              Doesn't Earth have any off world mining colonies?

                  i thought they reduced the bugdet to allow for more money to be goin towards making more ships and i thought i remember hearing that the ships are made off world now so they don't have to be hiden from the public during construction. i can't remember what epsiode i heard that in. but if i am right then they could use the money for making the ships to help create a whole industrail area and manufactor ships and weapons (if and when they get the energy ones) they could also set up multiple science labs as well.

                    That would make sense but then there would be thousands of people off world and materials moving via the mountain. Thats also kinda hard to cover up.

                    I think that colonies will really start to kick off when the stargate is public knowledge, as then you could simply ask people if they'd want to go live and help out on a colony and there you go.

                      I totally agree with that. Once public, colonies will spring up all over the galaxy. But while still secret, it might take some doing, but it's still possible to turn the Alpha Site, Beta Site, etc into mini-Earth cities. Costly, yes. Beneficial, extremly. Plausible, maybe. Think on this.

                        it is a good point: IMO once we have say 12 DClass ships and some energy weapons earth will feel a bit more secure. once that happens it will start to develop things it felt were just a precaution in to full scale investment:
                        i see that in 10 years earth will have 3 or 4 small towns that are specialised an quite large ( approx 2000 ppl): these specialist colonys could be say naquadah production, trinium aquirement and F-302/3 construction all governed externally by a single deadalus production station on a planet other than earth.
                        then if earth is blown up the infrastuture for fighting back is still intact and atleast 8000+ people automatically survive + atlantis + ship crew +refugees.....i think the key now would be to get security that earth is safe then create the infrastructure to create a much larger galatic empire and trading network.

                          How do we know their not developing the Alpha Site. I mean they havn't been there long and their probably still cutting into the rock to make more room. Plus since you only see the runway outside there maybe another area beyond that. Besides, even then you can't blame them for taking money away from it now that they can build warships.

                            actually you can, to built ship onany kind of viable large scale you need viable and productive specialist inputs. without refined and co-ordinated imput your production and output quotas with be hugely inefficent. basicly is costing the US more to keep the alpha site as a camp and producing the 303's one by one than it would cost to go in to mass production.
                            maybe scourge will shed some light on the alpha site future.....

                              i would think that this would take care of itself cause u need to people to build ships as well as supplies for those people as well as housing and other stuff if u are gonna be productive u would have to have a full time force building so u would need everything a small manufactoring town would have unless the airforce always wants to pay the bill.
