From what I've gathered through watching both Stargate Sg-1 and Atlantis, ZPM's are powered by an artificial singularity. Just like the way a black hole would provide power for the gate to keep it open indefinitely, a smaller version of a blackhole, a singularity, would provide energy to whatever you're powering.
I don't have any doctorates, degrees, or diplomas in physics or astronomy, and I haven't read any books dealing with theories that concern subjects such as these, so I might need some help with defining a singularity and what not. Basically (I think), its so dense and has so much mass that it's gravity sucks light and everything else into it just like a blackhole, so obviously it is very heavy. My point is, how can you just walk into a room and pick up a ZPM like it's a five pound weight? Or does the word "artificial" have something to with it? If it does, I'm obviously going to ask for a theory on what makes this "artificial" singularity so light and non-destructive, needless to say also, how would you make it.
