Midway Station not finished? Spoilers...#The Return#

[Puddle-Jumper]

I was thinking will they finish the station so it can support life? and people can just step through and they can keep it manned and build an entire space station there. Ships can stop over there on the way to and from Pegasus, and it would allow easy travel to and from pegasus and it would allow an alpha site to be set up easily in pegasus not to mention save power on the ZPM and eventually work it into a shipyard someday (years away like if any series makes it that far) maybe...given how isolated it is the location is good

There are loads of threads already about the midway station. Try searching for them. Maybe the MODS can close this thread.

[BC - 303]

while its still open let me add, this is already going to happen

[Puddle-Jumper]

Yeah but I wanted to specifcally discuss its future........and I haven't seen any recently so...

That's entirely possible. I think it's safe to say that the station is nowhere near completed. In Return pt.1 they'd just finished building the supporting structure of the station to house the gates and they'd just started adding metal platings around the exterior. I got the impression that they'll turn it into some kind of a remote, habitable supplies depot, kinda like the ISS.

Yeah it would really open up communications with pegasus....and perhaps another to ida could be on the way??

It's actually completed, that's how, (spoiler warning: highlight text) Samantha Carter was able to gate to Pegasus to help Atlantis when they were floating through space, and how she gated to Atlantis after being assigned to lead the expedition.
They are also going to have an episode on it in season 4.

Spoiler:

Unfortunately, it looks like something bad is going to happen to it

"But in sci-fi nothing lasts forever and the best laid plans often go awry. So if you get your heart set on the Midway station, you may be disappointed."

Spoiler:

i think if the repliacotors know the location and it is likely they do then the least they can do is fit a shield

[Col. Shadow Quinn]

It's completed and there's nothing anyone can do about it!

[Vala_M]

If it gets destroyed, I hope at least that they will rebuild it as it's too valuable to lose.

Vala,

They can't take my Midway Station away! I'll defend it with sharp, and pointy objects!

Here's how it happens.

Spoiler:

Apparently, the Wraith find out where it is, get onboard and attack and use to to get to Earth in "Midway" and Teal'c and Ronon head to the SGC to hunt down the Wraith.

Vala,

If that's the case then it could be that Earth decide the Midway is too much of a risk and destroy it themselves, so it'll never be rebuilt.

I don't think so, they could move it a few lightyears away and it wouldn't matter (position-wise) or they could cloak it since they can do the same with Earth ships, I doubt a ZPM would be required for something as small as the Midway space station.

Vala,
