    i think thats point.

    season 4 spoiler

    Spoiler:
    in last man mckay was talkin to shepherd explaining what happened soon as he left. micheal got the hybrids right after taking teylas baby. then started to build his armada of ships taking it to the wraith and infecting ppl.

    so when shepherd got back he had future info. and at that point micheal was on the brink of perfecting the hybrids and starting to build an armada.

    he was taking it to the wraith to kill them and only trying to infect humans with the wraith hybrid retrovirus.

    so he wud need atlantis to help him defeat the wraith. unbeknowing that they've made friends with wraith called todd.

      Also there is a lot of Milky Way to discover. We could use it to increase our knowlegde about stars and that kind of stuff.

      But we might also be able to send it to the egde of the galaxy, so that when Daedy and the Apollo reach it we could send over supplies and crew and decrease the 304 trips to Atlantis.

        We could also do that if Midway was replaced??????

          Who says Odyssey's ZPM is depleted? Just because the shields die doesn't mean their power source is gone. The generators can only take so much strain until they finally give their last and go out. Yes, it can power a shield, but that's a shield without being under the stress of a massively powerful bombardment!

            With a ZPM plugged in, the shield should remain active indefinitely until the module itself runs out of power. Since the shield failed, the obvious conclusion is that the ZPM is now dead.

              Thats suggesting that the 304 shield works like the Atlantis shield where it draws directly from the source, where as its been shown in the show to work on the Star Trek principle that the shield is charged and looses power when hit....that said (spoiler for season 5)
              Spoiler:
              In "Search and Rescue" Carter says something like they "should have beam weapons back online soon, but with the way Michael is attacking the shields they wont have enough power anyway"

              .
              Even saying that though, Im agreeing with the out of power crowd, or at least severly depleted, but its up to the writers if they ever pick this up if/when we ever see or hear of the Odyssey again.

              They didnt, they were told to leave by some of Atlantis' original inhabbitants...they did the right thing which squatters arent moral enough to do, get off someone elses property when asked to do so

                No it isn't, only the Atlantis shield draws power and shuts down untill the energy source is depleted. On many occassions we have seen the Asgard shields fail, but still had power. In No man's land the shields of the Daedalus fail during the battle with the hives, but we still have artificial gravity. If the powersource had shut down the team would be floating.

                  But you're forgetting that ships seem to act different and obey different laws with a ZPM plugged in. Things that used to make sense no longer do... like how in the world a better power source makes the engines faster, considering the conduits weren't built to handle that much power at once. A ZPM technically should just allow things to run longer, not become more powerful.

                    I agree with you, but the events in AOT would still point to the ZPM being taxed, never mind the attack they used it to power the supergate.

                      the shields were under huge strain and would eventually collaspe

                      in unending they had the power core and a zpm and still enough power to use a time dialation field for 50 years so the zpm was not depleted

                        What does that prove? For all we know, time dilation takes relatively little power...

                          it proves the zpm was not depleted since if it did they wouldnt of used it for the time dialation and also using the asgard core

                            I'm sorry, but your English is confusing me a bit. Could you try and restate that? What I got was "It proves the ZPM is not depleted because if it was they wouldn't have used it for time dilation... asgard core."

                            I'm not sure what this has to do with the ZPM being depleted during "Ark of Truth."
