    The ZPM On Atlantis

    Is the ZPM on atlantis actually depleted? because if it is, they didnt really show any extra cool technology that came with it, as in when the ZPM was plugged in... only that they found the Aurora and that was pretty much it


    Spoiler:
    ZELENKA: How much power did we drain from the ZeeP ... M?
    (He trails off as he sees the screen. Jeanie looks at the screen and
    stares in shock. Its message reads, "ZPM Module depleted. 0%."
    McKAY (appalled): All of it. (He groans.) I drained all of it.
    JEANIE: You did the right thing.
    McKAY: Hmm. Well, I suppose I would've done the same thing for ...
    me.
    (All the screens go off, then all the lights go out and the room is
    plunged into darkness. A moment later some of the lights come back
    on again as the city switches from ZPM power to naqahdah generators.)
    McKAY: I am so fired.

    Yeah, dude, it's gone.

      The expedition is back to square one, but at least they have Daedalus.








      For now.

        theroticaly it should never run out, but we have had that argument in another thread so lets not have it here


        my question is what now? Weir gave them that list of planets with known ZPMs didnt she, should they start hitting those now?
        Under the Ice of Antarctica....
        O'Neill: I cant go on....
        Carter: You spent 7 Years on MacGyver and you cant figure this one out. We got belt buckles, and shoelaces and a piece of gum build me a Nuclear reactor for crying out loud. You used to be MacGyver, MacGadget, MacGimik but now your Mister MacUseless.

          They'll begin looking for a power source more efficient than a zpm.

            They've already checked those planets.

              I am pretty annoyed with this as <I>sparkygate</I> said at the start of this thread we have still only seen a minute very small fraction of powerful technologies that are hidden in atlantis and requires zpm power.

              The whole point of the atlantis story is so that we can discover uber cool technologies that the ancients had and use them against a very powerful enemy. But now well into season 3 were back to square one with all that shows potential laid to waste.

                well we know they
                Spoiler:
                get more because of the spoilers of the Tao of Mcay
                . im hoping that the writers aknowlege that the ZPMs cant run out of power and later put all the "depleted" ZPMs together and can withdraw a minor charge that would last indefinately.

                we would have around 7 to draw power from if they ever choose to explore this.

                  This is cause by the writers being in competent. If they where going to cancel a show why did it have to SG-1 there the stories actually make sense

                  The only redeeming quality SGA has is it has McKay on it, other than the rare good episode

                    listen even i'm a worn out zpm b/c people have been using me too much. Football = mckay using for his science projects.
                    school = database
                    senior video = monthly check-in with earth
                    graduation tests= mckay and mrs. miller equations being runned through my processors.
                    my mother being the SUPER-B*tch she is= the wraith shooting at my beatiful city
                    I'm ready to be depleted!!!!!!!!!!

                    Power status at 5%

                      The thing that needs to be found is a ZPM Charger or Creator.
                      Come see Kingomon's Stargate stories about:
                      Poseidon, the Ancient's King and
                      new enemy of the Ori

                          the tao of mckay sounds good and submersion it was possible mentioned that they were finding another source of power than a zpm. but i might be wrong

                            I seriously doubt they would be able to use it that would make too much sense for the writers to comprehend

                              No, it really doesn't, not unless you want Atlantis to end.
