    Default This just struck me.

    Why don't they just use the asgard core to manufacture ZPM's?

    It took you this long? It's been discussed over and over again.

    You can't create energy, only transfer it around. So if you want to make a ZPM you need to be able to harness the energy of the ZPM from another source. If the core could do that then they should just install the core's power source in all the ships cuz it's way better then a ZPM.

    Actually, my bad. No need to be sorry, and I shouldn't have been so condescending. A little cranky after 6 hours of classes.

    well i am annoyed. its HAS been discussed into infinity. before you make a thread, use the search function. it would be a good idea however, to make 3 subspace taps, and a ACC producing ZPM's, and link them.

    And provided we know how/have the capability to build ZPMs in the first place, to which theres no indication thus far.

    Covering up scandals and keeping secrets is almost a racial trait.

    Isn't it funny how the word 'politics' is made up of the words 'poli' meaning 'many' in Latin, and 'tics' as in 'bloodsucking creatures’?

    actually the core cant make a zpm because it cant fill it with a pocket of subspace time which is what it draws it power from untill there is no more power to draw and it is depleted. m guess is the process of harnessing a pocket of subspace time is so complex and difficult that we cant manage to do it yet. after all the ancients were a very bright bunch and we really shouldnt be able to understand alot of things we do but zpms are proboly way beyond us, at least for now.

    But we could probably make a nice ZPM shaped paper weight.
