I was going to write it down lastnight when I was watching it, but now I forgot. Maybe someone who taped the show can draw it for us?
Re: it is the 7th symbol in DJ's blackboard symbols.

Originally posted by SelmakI don't like the Atlantis PoO... it's not recognizable like Earth's PoO. I thought the Atlantis PoO should have been the one the looks like a doted Earth PoO. The Stargate Atlantis logo has Earth's PoO as one of the A's.. it doesn't make much sense if it is not the PoO of Atlantis.sigpic

Originally posted by ScruffNot "any" Milky Way gate, only Earth. The "At" symbol is Earth's PoO. If another planet in the MW Galaxy wanted to dial Atlantis they would use their own distinctive PoO. The first 7 would be the same though.
Please help clarify this.*Peter turns on the energy based iris while Atlantis is very low on power*

Originally posted by EYU86This always bugged me, if each planet has its own PoO, then there aren't enough symbols on the gate for every planet and it also means theres no definitive gate address for each planet, at least one symbol will always be different?

I always thought that the Point of Origin was always on the DHD, but it was always in a replaceable spot. One planet's point of origin is not on another planet's DHD, so there's really an infinite amount of space for the PoO.
But the red thing in the center could be it too. *shrugs*Thor: The Asgard would never invent a weapon that propels small weights of iron and carbon alloys, by igniting a powder of potassium nitrate, charcoal and sulphur.

They could just as easily just have skipped the 7th symbol and placed it in the activation button in our galaxy too, but I guess the Ancients didn't think of that. Then again, shouldn't one be able to open a wormhole from ANYWHERE if one could get a ship for a ship with a gate to transmit a signal to the one gate you want to go to where you are, and therefore eliminating the need for a pre-programmed point in space.

Its a weird goof.
Because there are 39 symbols on the gate and 38 on the DHD the 39th is autmatically dialed when the red button is pushed which is also the PoO. That means that each DHD has one symbol out of place and they all aren't the same? I dunno, makes no sense to me.*Peter turns on the energy based iris while Atlantis is very low on power*
