Would 10 Minutes have Put Carter on Destiny?

[Ripple in Space]

For argument's sake, say that Carter got to the second Icarus planet 30-minutes earlier, and managed to round up the Lucian Alliance on the planet.

Say also, that SG-1 was aboard (Daniel, Teal'c, Cam and Vala) along with Shep's team (Shep himself, McKay, Ronon, Teyla, and Beckett) who were going somewhere on the USS Hammond's next stop.

If Carter determined that there was a 10-minute window before the planet exploded, where they could dial out to Destiny, would Jack risk sending SG-1, Shep's Team, Carter, himself, or any combination of crew to the Destiny to assist them and/or assume command?

What do you think?

I think it sounds like a bad fanfic idea

It's not a proposal, the OP is asking if Gen. O'Neill would opt to strand his flagship personnel on the Destiny in order to assist or assume command.

[jelgate]

All those assets would never be risked given their importance to Earth

[KEK]

I don't think Jack would send anyone unless he could get them back. Remember how reluctant he was to let Daniel go to Atlantis?

There's no way he would send the 2 flagship teams on a one-way trip. Maybe one person who would volunteer, but even then I doubt it. Remember, there's no way back once you reach the other side. Wouldn't make sense to sacrifice some of Earth's most valued SG team members.

No truer words have ever been spoken.

OT: No. If someone wanted them on the mission, they'd have already been assigned to it.

That's a good point, but remember Jack did send Dr. Weir, Col. Sumner, Dr. Beckett, Dr. McKay, and many others on a presumably one-way trip.

There's no way that would happen, where you take what has become your best set of people and you strand them somewhere, especially as how much help they could be is subjective, given the constraints of the SGU (not SG1 or SGA) universe.

^^yes, this

That's a good point, but remember Jack did send Dr. Weir, Col. Sumner, Dr. Beckett, Dr. McKay, and many others on a presumably one-way trip.

that's a construct as a way to start a new show, with new people, just as sending Young, Rush, Eli and others were.

then again, with as much of an issue Jack is having with Young's leadership, who's to say that he wouldn't take the opportunity to put a proven and trusted individual in command of the Destiny?

and what difference will any of them make? no one has control of destiny nothing will change.

[Skydiver]

On a mod note, hey, if you think it's an oddball sounding idea....whatever. One person's odd ball idea is another's brilliant epiphany. If you think it's a dumb topic, move on and find another.

but all young has to do is discontinue using the stones and he won't be faced with dealing with jack. or
