Chances are it would be not be nighttime on the other side. He could dig himself in to survive the night until Destiny arrives We'd have two of him then! .. uhsigpic

When a person knows death is highly possible but a person takes a risk just on the off chance it works. That is what happened here
Spoiler:Like you said he took a chance. It was a risk he was willing to take to try & save his life & possibly the lives of others.
It wasn't a deliberate attempt to end his own life.

Seriously though I'm glad that Spencer went on an away mission. If he was deemed able to go through the gate it may mean that his mental state had calmed down which also may decrease the chances of him being the person that tops themselves.
Mind you having said that they might be making Spencer a slightly calmer person in order to intensify the shock if he does top himselfLast edited by Sgt Detritus; 18 November 2009, 03:00 AM.

Scott committed suicide by waiting for the wormhole to be affected by the solar flare before throwing the kino through, ensuring that he would be killed by the aliens since he could no longer return to Destiny. Rush did the same thing by jumping through the unstable wormhole, though he didn't know that it would end in his death at the time.
Whether or not they did it for noble reasons doesn't matter; it was still suicide.Click the banner or episode links to visit the virtual continuations of Stargate!Previous Episode: 11x03 "Shore Leave" | Previous Episode: 6x04 "Nightfall" | Now Airing: 3x06 "Eldest"The Continuing Stargate Wiki | Stargate: Avalon l The New "Ark of Truth" | Stargate: Universe Reviews | Banner designs by Alx

Imagine having to be somewhere and the only way of getting there is driving. Now imagine the roads being really slippery. To drive would be "suicide". You get in the car, with no intentions of killing yourself. But you slide off the road, drive into a pole and die. Suicide?

His decision to board the shuttle that was leaking air so that he could hold down the switch/button to seal it off was suicide. Self-sacrifice for others is not usually considered suicide, as the goal is not to kill oneself but to save another. Even if he was already dying he made a conscience choice to hasten his death.

“In the first three hours there are three deaths. It’s very heavy. There’s a suicide by episode six, as well.”
Of course, the episode six thing is no longer accurate, but the "as well" rules out that the suicide could be Senator Armstrong's death. Plus it just seems odd to say "suicide by episode six" when it happens in the second episode. Wouldn't you then say "There's a suicide by episode two"?

Also I was pointing out that we have seen a suicide. Now have we seen THE suicide which is likely to be a major focus in a upcoming episode? No. Frankly I find it disturbing that some people are almost salivating in anticipation.
From the production notes for "Time"...
Since this suicide has not occurred as of "Earth," we're speculating that Carlyle may have had all three hours of "Air" in mind as a single episode -- making "episode six" actually episode eight. Just when the suicide will occur, however, is uncertain. Carlyle also told Multichannel News at the same media event that the suicide might occur in episode five. Neither episode had been filmed at the time.
