Perhaps they had the view of the Destiny crew. i.e. Time Capsule. We're all going to die. We'll never make it home. For posterities sake...
Seems to me that the gate could recharge kino's for a duration. Now downloading the contents and storing them long term, it doesn't seem to me that they'd be capable of that for the first decade plus IMO. But who knows, maybe the remote(s) are really fricking big HDDs. And/or the gate(s). Plus that whole iMovie laptop thing.
A bunch of scientists and all, a wet paper towel and a penny can generate a charge. Enough of them and you've got a reasonable power source. Same with potatoes and copper wiring... and such things. Just like a little 3" x 3" solar panel isn't going to power your car, a grid of 100 x 100 of those 3" x 3" panels could.... (in theory).
