Ok in the last man Sheppard steps throw the gate and is transported back in time. I’m not going to get into the stupid idea that McKay is going to try to upgrade the gate and dialing program because the ancients built the system and they were a lot smarter then McKay and had a lot more time to work on it. But putting that aside when you are transported back in time by a solar flair like what happened in the episode 1969 you will sling shot around the sun back to your originating planet aswell back in time. So when Sheppard stepped throw the gate he should have been transported back to the planet he stepped throw and not to Atlantic. Did this bother anyone ells.

Could have been a solar flare around the receiving 'Gate's sun in Last Man where 1969 had the solar flare around the sending 'Gate's sun.When the time comes to utilize Earth's best weaponry against an ailen threat. The weapon that will ultimately prove to be Earth's best will be the Zatnikitel

The whole idea behind the solar flare thing is that the gravitation of the star affects the wormhole and alters it in the time/space continium.
So theoretically, you could end up doing a complete loop, but you might not. The gravitation would have to affect it in such a way that the wormhole was redirected back to your original gate. If not, you could end up at any number of gates in the galaxy or even the one you were intending to being with, just in a different time.

Good catch!
So...in order to make canon work Sheppard needed to be LEAVING Atlantis instead of going to Atlantis.
lol.Grammar, Logic, Rhetoric.

okay, for one, sheppard was sent to the future. second, solar flares dont always slingshot you back to the planet. that only happened in 1969 due to the shape of the solar flare. ever flare is different, some send you forward in time, some backward. so sorry to say it, the flaws you mentioned.. werent flaws."There's nothing to be gained by second-guessing yourself. You can't remake the past. So look ahead… or risk being left behind"
Woolsey: That sounded like another explosion.
O'Neill: Yes. Yes it did.
Woolsey: What does that mean?
O'Neill: Something exploded...

And don't start about someone else's spelling when you don't even capitalize your first word either.

Did this bother anyone ells.People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but *actually* from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint... it happens to kinda look like the name 'Jeremy Bearimy' in cursive English.
