8 Chevrons

[iLemon]

When the Jack had all the ancients knowledge downloaded into his head, he dialed to the Asgards which requires 8 chevrons. He made a power supply that would have enough energy to dial 8 chevrons. But since then they've always dialed to the Asgards, how?
They didn't know how to make the device work without the ancients knowledge.

Maybe the Asgards gave them some gate addresses that would help them reach them without having to use 8 and extra power? They might have outposts and ships orbiting other planets that have gates closer to earth and those are the places they dial to reach the asgard and communicate to them.

[Bobby\Jolinar]

They can contact them through the hall of thor's might or the great hall in k'tau. Remember the ep Red Sky? They make mention later too that they go there to contact the asgards but they were too busy and had no success that time.

I’m sure the asgard gave Jack a communication device to contact them.

8 chevrons are for the dial for other nearby galaxy's like pegasus and the othalla galaxy (home galaxy of Asgard) the 9th chevron imo is the chevron to dial the gate to the end of the known universe cause the univers is expanding an few centimeters per year but that is only speculation

[iLemon]

And I'm asking where thay get the energy from to dial to Othalla. And if they were able to dial to Othalla, and still are then should be able to dial to Pegasus.

We dont contact them they contact us lol Sarcasm here

[Elite Anubis Guard]

and dont we use radio to get to em aswell. or subspace comunications or something!

How would there be a stargate there? I wonder if the 9th Chevron will remain a mystery, like the furlings.

[VirtualCLD]

we have never dialled the Asgards in their home galaxy without a power boost (aka Fifth Race and Point of View? ). Everytime we have tried to make contact with them since has been using an Asgard communication device and most travel has been via ship, not the Stargate.

A few centimeters? That's funny. Even if the universe is expanding at .01% of the speed of light, due to the inflationary model, that would be alot of centimeters.

300,000 km/s is the speed of light. So .01% would be 30 km/s. So 30 km/s * 365 days/year * 24 hr/day * 60 minutes/hr * 60 seconds/minute * 1000 m/km * 100 cm/m = 94,608,000,000,000 cm/year. And that would only be the 'radial' expansion, the real 'width' expansion would be twice that.

How fast does the stargate make someone travel?

The Stargate is pretty instantaneous from our perspective. I'm sure that there is some sort of time elapsed, but considering the wormhole is out of space-time its probally insignifigant.

In the movie it takes a long time as the wormhole is "tracking" but that (speculation) is probally due to tech they were using which was innacurate.

There is, cant be sure of witch episode, but carter said that if they manage to shut off the gate after like .3 seconds or something the person/object traveling along the wormwhole would materialise in deep space, or fail to dematerialse in either case they would end up in deep space, so i think the futher away the planet the slightly longer it takes

[MylesSGC]

We don't really contact them that much i didn't think they just have a habbit of whipping people up on to their ship when they want to talk Most people would come and knock on the door. But oh no, not the asguard, they have to abduct people instead... Also don't the SGC have one of those white stones that thor likes so much?
