Why can't they gate-hop back to Earth?

[Erik Pasternak]

Not so much the gate. It's the Dialing computer + power source. The DHDs are not nearly as cool as the dialing computer in Atlantis.

Or, hey, the Ancients had no reason to make gates capable of multi-universe dialing accept for the one in Atlantis, so why would they bother?

I would assume that being able to dialdifferent galaxies is a standard gate feature, providing there is enough power.

[Erik Pasternak]

My best guess is it's just too far between galaxies. It's much easier to gate hop from world to world within one galaxy. Our closest neighboring galaxy is Andromeda which is 2900 k. light years away!

Hey, I wonder if Andromeda has a gate network.



SPIN-OFF TIME: Stargate: Andromeda!

Multi-galaxy, not universe.

We all knew what she meant, so lay off. AHHHHHH! I'm defending Mio! It's a sad, sad day!

[Mio]

Multi-galaxy, not universe.

First agreeing with me, then defending Mio... you should probably leave the computer now.

[EYU86]

Yea, take a nap, rest it off.

[EYU86]

[Mio]

We all knew what she meant, so lay off. AHHHHHH! I'm defending Mio! It's a sad, sad day!

I'm a he.

[aAnubiSs]

it's 11pm in godville!

[EYU86]

I'm a he.

Now hes not gonna defend you anymore. He only did it cuz he thought you were a chick. He was macking it with you, or so he thought.

[Mio]

Oh.

In an unrelated matter....I changed my sig.

[Erik Pasternak]

I'm a he.

I am very, very sorry. I think I will take aAnubisS's advice and leave the computer now.

[Erik Pasternak]

Now hes not gonna defend you anymore. He only did it cuz he thought you were a chick. He was macking it with you, or so he thought.

Turn off your dirty mind, I'll defend anyone, except you!


P.S. I'm back. (Long time to leave, eh?)

[Erik Pasternak]

Yep. Very nice.
