10 points for the awesome idea!

Love that kino board idea. can also be used as stretcher too. Very nice.

can the kinos push Destiny 360 degrees toward earth? thinking ............

[Commander Zelix]

When I saw the episode I thought it was pretty cool and clever.

Yeah Eli loved that!

you mean 180 degrees. 360 would put them in the same direction

[YutheGreat]

....was that just a board supported by keno's?....if so any one ells have a problem with that i mean come on if that many keno's can support close to a tun so they say i think it should be closer to like 200 lb's

That is what it looked to me. I don't think two men manage to dig two tons of ice though. When they said a ton I think it was just figuratively.

[thekillman]

ice can be heavy, and it's approximately 1 kg per liter. what they put on the bord was maybe a few hundred liters.


Young: How much can it carry
Eli: i dont know, maybe a tonne. more than you two can carry.

I loved the pad I wish someone could invent something akin to that on earth..

Talk about possibility for commercial application

[Inquisitor]

It is starting to seem that way, there had to be a bunch of them under that sled. Though apparently the SGC had unlimited MALP's, so there is a precedent for unlimited "roving robots."

There's a difference, since Earth could manufacture MALP's, they can easily replace them. We also know they are sent back afterward, from episodes like Within the Serpent's Grasp and Urgo which are the first two which come to mind, so even if it's limited, they can still operate perfectly fine.

Who knows, maybe the Destiny can also manufacture them, or they just have a massive supply.

[Ed]

i imagine destiny has a couple hundred adn it looked like two layers of them under the board

Greers flame thrower was cool also

[missmobius]

there were at least 2 dozen kinos under there.

you should assume kinos are designed to work in extremely high gravity environments where people could not go, so it is not outside the realm of plausibility. I think it shows ingenuity and improvisation. They are going to need quirky solutions like that to survive long term.

Can't help but have MacGyver come to mind, cause that floating carrier sure was a MacGyver move

[missmobius]

Rush didnt seem to happy that Young didnt bring back more ice instead of Scotty boy.

actually I would have rather Young leave Scott in the cravassssss and bring in the ice!

[missmobius]

what's next a flying suit powerd by kinos, or maybe maths boy will get fatter by making himself a hover chair and stop walking.

come on now, there there, I like Math Boy

[Alteran of Atlantis]

Loved that idea with the hoverboard thing. Eli's a genious.

i have a feeling there will be nearly unlimited kino's

Yeah, the ship probably makes them itself somehow.

[thekillman]

seeing the size of these Kino's, they probably have a few hundred. even then, it wouldn't take up that much space compared to the total size of the Destiny
