Ok, there are 2 things that i still cant wrap my head around.
First the more interesting one.
For example, when you go through the gate, or put your hand in to hold it open (SGU Air2 etc.), shouldnt you feel your hand being CUT OFF?
I understand that the process of dematerializing your body is probably very quick and painless, but if you hold your hand in, the hand goes to the buffer, its not longer attached to your arm.
So you should feel it being absent.
Actually it should feel incredibly painful if you hold a piece of your body into the Stargate, its the same as getting it sliced off, continuously. I don't see how this can be painless except if the Stargate is actually intelligent enough to feed your brain fake signals from your hand in the buffer.
Any official explanation for this?
Secondly the vortex in "A Matter of Time" bothers the **** out of me (not the kawoosh, its when the Stargate turns into a giant toilet-drain.)
In the episode the gate is connected to a planet about to be swallowed by a black-hole, meaning that the gravitation from it is seeping through.
I can sort of understand that the plasma from the event horizon would start being itself "sucked" into the wormhole, but why on earth was the event-horizon BULGING BACKWARDS?!
This would suggest that the wormhole is established somewhere behind the Stargate, which is asinine.
