if we had 3 ZPM's

[Homeslice55]

What would we do if we had 3 fully powered ZPM's?

Not considering show ending ramifications, should Atlantis fly back to the MW?

Should it fly around Pegasus?
Maybe a spin off and fly around a new galaxy.

In our never ending search for ZPM's, i ask, does it really matter? I dont think they would use them Atlantis because it would probably cancel the series, plus, it Might bring some random systems online (non of which could defeat the Wraith), so its kind of pointless. We could use them to power the Anartic Outpost.....for the Ori...maybe....if they ever come. It could make a couple ships go faster.... but theres really no other Ancient technology we have that is powered by ZPMs.....yet

Thoughts?

We'd have Mckay overlaod them by accident lol..

nah theyd have Mckay run a powercheck on howlong the systems would last if they moved the city.. then they'd move the city to a diffrent planet...(they wouldnt abandon the humans of pegasus... And once they learned how to make drones and more zpms by scanning the Database more thoroughly, they'd fly thru pegasus, picking off Hiveships, while Earth builds a retrofitted atlantis in Antartica... because we found the location of a shipyard in pegasus and it includes isntructionson building Atlantis lol yada yada yada long story short.. We destroy our enemies and Earth takes over Milkyway and Pegasus, and then the Orii Galaxy. and then when the Asgard die out, we let a few survive by building androids... and then we colonize their galaxies..

Yeah. Get it the hell out of there and away from the wraith.

They could keep the shield or cloak on all the time.

They could fully power the Drone chair and shields at the same time, currently I think they have to cut the shields back some in order to power the chair.

They could power all of the city.

They could send one back to the SGC and use it to power the Drone chair when it was needed. They could also use it to power the Gate to dial into Atlantis, thus ending the need to have Daedalus continually fly back and forth to Earth. That way, she could be stationed permantently in Pegasus.

Spoiler:

And kill the need to make the Intergalactic Bridge.

They could use it to augment the shields and hyperdrive on Odyssey or give it to the Asgard to power-up an O'Neill's shields/weapons, maybe enough to take on an Ori mothership.

they fly atlantis to earth and ask Xzibit to pimp it up.

and Xzibit pimps it, as Teal'c would say, indeed... lol.. When they take atlantis back to pegasus, the hydrolics kcik in... the Citie's popin out the water on diffrent parts, every wall has a TV, every device, every symbol o nthe gate, every window, everytihng is a tv.. The drones are removed and replaced with a giant Projector, and the Shield is altered to appear White, so They get a Big version of Imax lol... The Cities Com System is used for surround sound lol, the lifesigns detector is a remote/tv.. DHD is a remote.. the Gate itself is a round TV... the ZPM hasa tv on it.... and it completely drains and the entire city is unusable now, and the Gate is broken because its been turned into a TV, so theres no way off the city, so they send subspace message to Daedalus to tell them to bring some popcorn, and more naqudia generators... they fire up allthe naquidah generators they have and start watchin movies.

theyd take it for a spin and get a fill up of gas (ZPMs) they'll have a few gas stations and u'll get 30c off a ZPM coupon

god how silly of me,
they really need to get a Mr. Fusion

Apart from flying the city, they could use the ZPMs to explore the rest of the city, as they have only been able to explore half of it. This is probably due to power concerns.

[Groove]

^ No, they can power sheilds, weapons and go to Earth. Obviously they can explore the city. Hell - the naquadah generators can support the city; in fact recently I believe that Weir said it was just dwn to it being so damn huge.

Remember series 2, episode 1 of Atlantis? They tied the ZPM into the Daedalus and the shields and weapons were amazing. One of the ZPMs could be used for that.

That said, a flying city with loads of weapons and power would be amazingly powerful - but the other ZPM could be at Earth's end and used for going to Atlantis and in emergenies put at the Ancient outpost on Earth.
