      I think its likely Rush accidently ended up giving a stone to the aliens as Young said.

        Well we know from "Air, Part 2" that the box came with 5 stones and an activation device:



        How many stones are ever seen at once after that? If it's 5, we know he didn't take any. If it's less, than it leaves the door open, but I find it hard to believe no one would have ever noticed that one of the stone spots was empty and not mentioned it right away.

          in this episode
          Spoiler:
          young confronted rush about possibly stealing one because that's the only way they alleins would have gotten the stone...young told him he would have kept the stone with him at all times after the "gun" thing so when he was left on the plaint the alleins would have found it on him...

              There's only the one case, so where would Rush have gotten another?

                  ok so Rush apparently had one of the stones before it was taken from him by the aliens. If this is true then he touched it while in his possession. Why then did no one ever swap consciousness with Rush when they used the stones to connect to Earth? Yet they show Young connecting via the same stone that was touched by the alien....

                    the alien touched it last. so it went to the alien not rush. and rush was unconsius at the time

                      Many explanations, for example:

                      1.) They could have used a different stone this time.
                      2.) The only alien that ever touched/carried the stone was killed by Rush, so the connection didn't get interrupted by them.
                      3.) The ship with the stone was not attacking Destiny, so it was far enough away that it didn't affect the other stones.
                      4.) The alien ships did affect the connection, just later, explaining why it cut out prematurely and left Chloe alone.

                      Also, all the stones seem to be accounted for, so we don't know if the aliens actually have one. It's possible they have a similar technology, though.

                        I don't mean in that episode (space). I mean in the whole first half of the first season, from when they arrived on board to before the encounter with the aliens. During that whole time they've been communicating with Earth. If Rush did have a stone then at some point someone would have swapped consciousness with Rush.

                        (unless as S09119 pointed out) 1.) They could have used a different stone this time.
                        (i.e. they never used the correct stone that matches with the one Rush had until the episode Space)

                          Perhaps Rush, knowing that this could happen, never really touched the stone with his skin.

                            i see what your saying...if rush had stashed one....but they use a *rag* when they move the stones around untell they go to use them...maby it needs direct contact to "link" to some one?...henc rush could have just used a rag or shirt or something to put in his pocket

                              Indeed. All he'd need is to wrap a tissue paper or something around the stone and that'd be it.
