There are several things that puzzle me about gate travel:
1. If a planet e.g. Earth dialled a wormhole to an other planet e.g. Abydos then could someone from Abydos come through to earth while that wormhole is active? you never see anyone doing this (if this was possible then they would also not leave the MALP on the surface of the other planet before sending through SG1......or at least return it before closing down the wormhole) and technically it shouldn’t work because if two people gated at other ends at the same time their molecules would get all screwed up therefore leading me to believe that the stargate is a one way device. Unfortunately this cannot be completely true as radio waves could pass through the gate from both Earth and Abydos.
2. My next query also concerns radio waves, the theory behind the iris is that it is flush with the event horizon (correct me if im wrong) therefore not allowing matter to reform on the other side of the gate therefore allowing nothing to pass into Earth. If this is the case then how can radio waves and signals such as the iris codes be sent back through the stargate when the iris is in place? Possibly the waves in both instances react in such a way that is different than other forms of matter in a way which allows these things to happen.
3. Again this concerns the iris and put simply when the gate is activated its bursts outwards (destroying whatever it touches.......used in Jaffa funerals) so why does this not destroy the iris (also about the iris, whenever the gate is activated offworld the iris is open to begin with and then closed by the chevron guy before the wormhole is established but why not just leave the iris closed because if it jammed before it was fully shut then Earth would be vulnerable.....plus why don’t they send a signal back to the SG teams in order to let them know its safe to come through after opening the iris as it may have jammed as they try to open it which would unfortunately kill that team(and about the chevron guy.....does he not sleep or something because every single time there’s an "unauthorised offworld activation" he is there lol)).
Hope un still reading........id have given up by now lol
4. Finally in the Atlantis episode "thirty eight minutes" in which the puddle jumper gets jammed in the orbital stargate they say that an object will not emerge from the other side of the wormhole before it is fully through the first side but would this not contradict what happened to Earnest in SG1 episode "the torment of Tantalus" in which he is inside a diving suit which is connected to a tube which is still sticking into the gate when it is closed down, yet he emerges on the other side of the gate.
Im also unsure why everyone speaks English and why when anyone travelled thought the gate to begin with they were all cold and icy but not anymore but I know that if they spent most of the episode learning a new language it would be kind of rubbish and it would take ages before anything happened and that it would be awkward making everything icy every single time the gate was used so I wont bother with those questions......ive asked enough already id say lol!
