    Asgard thechnology #Matter replicators # Unending spoilers

    BEWARE OF SPOILERS

    Sorry if this has been done before and if it has i apologize but i could not help myself.When sg1 got the thechnology from the asgard in the episode unending in the middle of the episode carter made modifications to something to create whatever they want out of thin air e.g.tretonin,chello,food.Couldnt that thechnology be used to create usable zpm's.

    Until we know what they're made of and exactly how they work, no.

      Agreed, Sam knew the construction of a cello and food etc so she was able to use the 'Matter Converter' she adapted from the beaming technology to make them - but so long as humans don't know what goes into a ZPM, they can't replicate one

        yes but that's all they have to do is look in the atlantis database and check up zpm's see what it's made of and voila.

          I think it goes deeper than that. I don't believe the converter could be used to create energy, only matter. For example, she couldn't use the converter to creat AA batteries or anything like that. I also wonder that since it's a converter, not a creator, why didn't the ship get smaller?

            that's a good point were did all the material come from for the converter.

              But they haven't found that information out yet, they are stuck in a time dilation field and they are millions of light years away from Atlantis - they have no means to create one. If the situation was different then possibly

                  Carter could have possibly used particles and molecules that were floating around in space - or even ones within the ship that were simply there. That would allow her to create items without taking the ship apart

                      If it were that simple, they'd have just found out how to create ZPM's themselves a long time ago...

                          I think it converted energy into matter, they couldn't just come out and call it a replicator now could they, but it was essentialy a star trek style replicator. She could have used it to create batteries easily as those generally use chemical reactions to produce power. She also could use it to create a ZPM shell, but I don't think they could create a fully charged ZPM unless they used more energy then a fully charged ZPM has, thermodynamics and all.

                            I suppose that is possible. I got the impression that the machine broke down matter to create something new. Energy is a possibility, and it would have much longer than 60 years to accumulate enough energy to power a ZPM.

                            My question is why could they not have created a shield to deflect the Ori blast. It would have taken less than 60 years to design and build.

                              Time was always the issue - they didn't have enough time to activate it - they managed to activate the time reversal macro alot quicker then a shield would activate. And Time reversal managed to allo most of the crew to stay the same age. Time reversal was the best option to them
