    Milky Way ZPMs?

    After all that happened in "The Pegasus Project," with using the Ancient database. I got to thinking, do you think that they could use the database, interactive program, to find outposts or other types of Ancient locations that used ZPMs? They could show all the Lantean settlements, then SGC could go and see if there is anything of interest, especially ZPMs.

        This isn't really about the ZPM's but the Ancient Database could be place were they find out about the 9th chevron.

            Although there was no indication that the Tower city ship or the base from Inferno existed in the database either, so maybe there are things that exist that aren't listed in the database. I'm not saying this is definitive evidence against it, though. Maybe McKay just hasn't read up to that bit yet.

              What do you mean? I agree with 2nd here I'm confused


              But maybe a lot of the data about where stuff is was destroyed by the Ancinets so the wraith couldn't get to it

                I think he refers to:

                Spoiler:
                the 3rd series, SG:U where (according to JM) the 9th chevron will play an important role. We don't know what that's for yet, but we will find it out in the new series if everything goes well.

                  That's what I was thinking, too. The Ancients might have erased sensitive information from the database (e.g. ZMP manufacturing, weapons schematics, Asurans etc) when Atlantis was under siege by the Warith - the kind of knowledge that could affect the fate of the Galaxy/Universe if fell into the wrong hands.

                    They didn't according to Weir in "The Seige, pt. 1"

                      Really? Where in the ep did Weir say that?

                        Lanteans leftthe MW to go to Pegasus somewhere between 5 & 10 million years ago.

                        They only returned 10,000 years ago. We know they didn't go back to Atlantis once they originally evacuated.

                        That means it would only be able to show ZPM's or whatever that are between 5 & 10 million years old. Would imagine that almost all would probably be well gone. Tayonas only survived because the shield collapsed & rock covered over it due to the eruptions.

                        Don't ever see them trying it because it'd be more sensible to search the DB on how to actually construct your own ZPM's or even any other form of Lantean power generation technology like those used in PJ's or the warships etc!

                          What they need to get is the Potentia (the Dagan ZPM). Get Chaya Sar or dress someone up like an Ancient to convince the Dagan fanatics that their Ancient has finally come to reclaim the Potentia. Give them a dead one to worship instead (McKay certainly has a few of those by this point).

                            I know they couldn't use it to find ZPMs after they left Atlantis, but they could do like Daniel did and list the earliest Lantean settlements and then they could eliminate the settlements that don't use that ZPMs for power. Then when they go and check it out.

                              In the part where Zelenka told her that they could only copy 8% of the Ancient database and she was talking about how hard it would be to chose between ascension research or weapons or ZPM construction or space travel information.
