Asgard Tech Conspiracy Theory

[Atlantis_Man]

Thor once said they had taken a sample of the Ancient Library but only managed to scratch the surface, has it crossed anyones mind that maybe the technology they have is nothing more than backward enginnered Ancient Tech? Beam Tech from the ring transporters and transporter chambers. Shields, Energy Weapons Hyperdrive tech?

[Qasim]

Its possible -but they must have had some decent tech of their own to have been in the alliance

[LORD MONK]

I think it was mentioned to get a clear picture how advanced the Ancients are. The Asgard are advanced by their own tech. They try and learn from the Ancients but it is to complicated that they have only "scratched the service"

That's how I took it.

TBPH i don't think the asgard have the humans best interests at heart, i know sounds odd but look at the facts:

1. they come and go when they please
2. they dont share technology so freely and i think the only time they have is recently to the fans gipping i hope that they never help us guys out.
3. they do things to humans without consent.
4. i know they have had their own problems but the Goa'uld a plague to the galaxy they didt lift a grey finger to rid us of them did they?

think about it for a moment!

The Asgards have done more to help primitive races than any other advanced race in the show. Even with all of the Asgard's advanced technology, it was not easy for them to free all of the Goa'uld's slaves, sure they probably could have wiped out the Goa'uld in a week but it would have meant the deaths of millions or even billions of slaves, not to mention the chaos that would come after the fall of the Goa'uld. Most of the planets under Goa'uld control are poverty stricken and without the Goa'uld's leadership many would die of starvation, there would be civil wars all across the galaxy and there’s always the chance of the Jaffa rising to take the place of the Goa’uld as dictators of the Milky Way. If the Asgard were to free the Milky Way from the Goa’uld, they would also be forced to artificially advance every planet to the point where they could support themselves or the galaxy would be plunged into chaos, it would require massive amounts of resources not to mention the fact that artificially advancing a race is extremely dangerous if that race is not able to handle the technology.

[Zekk]

Way to defend those little gray buts dude.

Well maybe they didn't help because they were loseing a war for their very survival against an almost unbeatable enemy that would stop at nothing to consume their entire galaxy? And now that they have "won" the war they are reduced to insanely small numbers with barely the resources to construct and maintain a dozen ships. The Asgard are hardly in a position to help us out right now. I'm personally glad that they gave us a few things, things that without which the galaxy would be in bigger trouble than it already is. The Deadie would have been destroyed by a wraith fleet already, and Atlantis would either be in a million peices or would be being salvaged by the wraith who would be working on consumeing our galaxy right now.

I think that the Asgard have given us a great deal. I really think the only thing we could use is a dumbed down version of the Asgard energy cannons. Maybe some medical know-how, you know a cure for cancer, aids, and a few other pesky viruses and maladies?

Taking a page out of the Iraq situation, heh?

[Giantevilhead]

Iraq, Africa, China, Japan, America, it ain't the first time humans have made that kind of mistake, and it certainly won't be the last. Luckily the Asgard are a lot smarter than humans.

[general ben]

my opinon of the asgards is that we have done enough to at least have a weapon system from them i mean come on how many times have we SAVED them. i think a energy weapon (which in disclosure thor said they were installing) would be available to us. at least one of the strength that the gouald have i mean before anubis they couldn't touch the asgard so one of those would be nice.

So they give us a weapon, corrupt elements of the government either get it to some NIDesque operation or into our own military, Ba'al gets it perhaps? Etc etc...

Actually weve done the most for primitive races in the last 10 years than anyone. think aobut it, how many worlds have we saved/free/relocated/enlightened about falseness of gods.
on top of this look at the enemys we have stoped destroy the galaxy and the Asgard:
*anubis x2 - he could destroy AMS and has knowledge of thir tech and that of more advanced tech, he could of been a serious threat
*the replicators x 3 - unatural selection, new order, small victorie, reckoning - we have put in some major damage to the reps over the years and i highly doubt with those holes the asgard could have survived no matter what anyone says.
*the goauld - various + all of the SL's - need i say anything, if the bluff was called the asgard would be screwed, or at least any PP would be.#

so if we wiegh this up, weve saved the asgard 5 times and they havenever fired a shot for us, sure they gave us, shields, hyperdrives, beaming tech, scanners and laser batterie weapons but should we of gotten more, or at least recognition of it by them.

I said that the Asgard have done more for primitive races than any other advanced races, earth is not advanced. Plus we've rarely seen the effects of SG1's meddling, the ones we did see were pretty bad, the people of Cimmeria were being slaughtered by Heru'ur, the people from that planet in the episode with SG1's doubles got enslaved by Cronus, and the people on the planet from "Icon" nuked themselves.

Exactly giving weapons to earth means giving weapons to Kinsey and his ilk. The Asgard may trust the SGC but they know better than to believe that the entire government is as benevolent. Remember how Thor had to step in during "Dissclosure" - actually he probably got in alot of trouble back for that one - interfering in Earths internal affairs and all that

They have already stated why advanced races don't share tech. with so called primative races. (not that we are primitive, but you get the point) Although the Asgard has advanced are battleship with hyperdrive engines, shielding and beaming tech. so what's the point?
