Yeah, the afterlife was dumb. Instead it could 2 way travel.

They probably have no idea what it does either. I'll go for "It's prettier this way"

They've done other cool stuff(but NOT Godzilla) - they've just got their heads up their backsides over SG1!

I think people are forgetting, that 8th Chevron isnt dial another galaxy, its add a distance to it. Im going to use a straight line as an analogy, to make it easier.
7 Chevrons
Earth-----------------------Abydos
8 Chevrons
Earth-----------------------(Direction of Abydos)-------------------------------------------------------------OthallaFOR PETE'S (no, not THAT Pete) SAKE, THE ABOVE POST (if offensive in anyway) WAS MADE IN JEST!

the ninth cheveron lets you do 1 of 3 things:
1) travel both ways through the stargate as in walk through the stargate get shot run back through.
2) to havve more than one stargate on a planet sorta like an extra point of origin.
3) shuts down the stargate network
* the quantum mirror is for alternate realitys not the ninth cheveron
** the quantum mirror also doe the time thing because u just dial a universe that in the past/ developed slower than your and ure back in the past.
*** also time travel is PJ territory leave the stargate out if this!sigpic
You are the fifth race, your role is clear, if there is any hope in preserving the future it lies with you and your people ~ 8years for those words

I think it would be good to give an idea about what is a local group:

i really think its just to add distance, the universe is big place.
even the acients didn't go everythere when the were corporeal.
but how far could it take u, u would need another stargate on the other end right? also it would probably take a crap load of power.
Well maybe it makes it possible to open a wormhole without a stargate on the other end and the reason no one ever used it it because it would take a z.p.m. to use it.
i doubt its a time machine cuz they have the puddle jumper for that.
the quantum mirror is for alternate dimensions.
2 way gate travel sounds like an idea but since the 8 chevron adds distance why would u dial further away to two way travel.
i think its possible to shut down the gate network aleady, maybe with a virus. but why they already have ships. gate travel is just convenient.
the cluster idea falls in with distance so it could possible be it but the question of if there is a stargate that far out or even if the ancients ever visited places that far away. if they did i think it might be that they were originally from there.
lol afterlife.
but all in all the best reason is just to add distance.

Huh... I guess I'm the odd man out. I think the 9th chevron has to do with how the Ancients seeded galaxies with human life. I don't know of any world in Stargate canon that had humans inhabiting it without having either a stargate there or once being there. We've come across many worlds were the Go'uald surplanted humans and a Stargate. I always imagined some great control station, hell maybe its in Atlantis, which accesses the Stargate network and activates all the gates within a galaxy utilizing the 9th Chevron and uses the Stargate to seed worlds with the essential building blocks for human life to form over time. I figure 8 Chevrons are used to chose the galaxy and the 9th to seed life in that galaxy. We've seen that Ancient devices can access multiple Stargates as we've seen in Window of Oppurtunity.
To explain how almost all of humans they've encountered speak English, I figure the Ancients could have encoded the building blocks of human DNA with something, maybe a passive genetic code, which causes all human life to slowly evolve to the point where we all speak a similar language as we get closer to their height in evolution.

for the wormhole without a stargate maybe u go thru it in a special ship that keeps u from breaking down.
acutally every human not on earth was put their by the gou'ald. Ra found earth and seeded the other world with humans. most freed themselves or are still enslaved. planets without stargates are ones they buried it a long time ago.
