    gate to pegasus

    couldn't it be possible for Earth to use the energy produced by a nuclear power plant(wire the gate to the plant etc...) instead of using a ZPM to dial a gate to another galaxy?

    or that's not enough juice?

    Doubt it would even come close, naquada generators dont come close and I would estimate that the two have similar power outputs.
    Equality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for. It's a necessity. Equality is like gravity. We need it to stand on this earth as men and women. And the misogyny that is in every culture is not a true part of the human condition. It is life out of balance, and that imbalance is sucking something out of the soul of every man and woman who is confronted with it.

      I doubt even a naquada fussion reactor would produce as much energy as requiered, and thats 400x more powerful than a naquada fission reactor.

        I think by using reactors based on the Mark IX we may be able to dial without a ZPM, but we would need a lot of them, and werent they Naquadria based? Very unstable

          naq generators are the same or better than nuclear. hell just replace those huge massive plants with one little from for the naq generator. bye bye oil dependancy. to bad the SG1 president isn't our real one

            A Mark IV reactor might be able to power the gate but probably limited. It was able to power the chair for a limited time so it might be possible to gate for like 3 minutes probably less.

              so i don't see what's the problem...couldn't they use a lot of those mark IV generators to power the gate from earth....or to power the odissey or any other ship...or better, when the ori show up, they'll be able to power up earth's defences with lots of mark IV :d

                I think eventually they'll reverse the damage cammy did to that ZPM. Then they could power the gate. Either that or they'll leave it and use it to make the Ori go boom boom.

                  Cammy? You're referring to Camulus, from Season 8.

                  I recall O'Neill calling him "Camel-Head" to Ba'al.

                      Didn't McKay say the mark IV generators power at a barely controlled overload? hence this is why it generates alot of power and only lasts for a short time. In Letters From Pegasus, he hooked up all the naquadah generators in Atlantis to open a a wormhole to Earth for a really short period of time, because it runs the risk of the generators going into overload. I guess it would be even more dangerous to hook up multiple mark IV generators to the gate.

                        so we had a ZPM and someone broke it?

                          then its unfixable, unless replaced.

                            No no no.

                            We found a ZPM on some planet back in Zero Hour, but it was tainted. We can't use it, unless we want to blow up the Earth.

                            And isn't it the Mark 2 Generator?
