Now that we have ships, we certainly should try to go back to the planet. All that "meaning of life stuff" could have great potential because just the philosophy and into the practical.

Really, for me its like, wow this is going to be interesting finding the answers. I never had a sense that this was just going to be a one off ep with no payout. I always felt that it was a little snapshot of what was to come.Joseph Mallozzi -"In the meantime, I'm into season 5 of OZ (where the show takes an unfortunate hairpin turn into "the not so wonderful world of fantasy")"
^^^ Kinda sounds like seasons 9 and 10 of SG-1 to me. Thor, ya got Aspirin?
AGateFan has officially Gone Fishin (with Jack, Sam, Daniel, Teal'c) and is hoping Atlantis does not take that same hairpin turn.

However I had to have a chuckle when Daniel reads Ernests journal which describes the castle as being like a 'United Nations of the Stars'. There was no United Nations when Ernest left earth in 1945.Joseph Mallozzi -"In the meantime, I'm into season 5 of OZ (where the show takes an unfortunate hairpin turn into "the not so wonderful world of fantasy")"

Wow, yes, one of my top fave episodes of SG1.
I also wondered if they could return in a ship. As Sam and Daniel agreed, being close to earth in the Stargate system is why they got a lock on it anyway. Even if the structure is in ruins, it has a buried Stargate that earth could try to retrieve for future use. And perhaps the other more protected rooms survived. Oh, well, maybe S11?
Just sayin', it was a grand intro to the other races, esp a nice one leading to Jack's encounter with the Asgard.MISSION: STARGATE REWATCH 2011-2012ENGAGEDDONE!

1, You should really learn to use capitalization and punctuation. Your post was kinda confusing.
2, Catherine didn't die in season 5, she died inSpoiler:season 8, at the very end of the season.Yes, I really do look like (a younger) Daniel. Don't believe me? Look for yourself.
Hey, Mitchell! You want a turn?

There is a new reason to go back to this planet -- The Ori.
While there might be some "meaning of life stuff" to be gathered, there is likely to be some technical and scientific insights available in examining the library device that might come in useful in fighting off the Ori.
It might even tell how to find the Furlings.
As for why there was no reconnection after SG1 returned, the part of the castle that held the stargate was undereatten by wave action, and so a large part of the building might have fallen on top of the stargate.
The Device, in another part of the building, is probably safe. Even if it fell too, it is tough, and would likely survive, as would be the Stargate.
Sending a ship to that world with a supply of earth-moving and diving gear could excavate the stargate and if necessary the library devise and Ta-Da, Meaning of life stuff and Ori Defenses.
