Which gate did Telford arrive through?

[generaloneill]

Just had a thought which gate did Telford arrive through once he went through the gate on Destiny, the stargate on Atlantis or the stargate at the SGC, most likely the IOA had Rodney or someone on Atlantis take the Atlantis gate offline so as not to disrupt gate travel going in and out of the SGC, or maybe they created a workaround like they did on the midway station to stop the Atlantis gate from taking precedent over the SGC stargate.

most likely atlantis is the new SGC. and due to having a DHD and a shield on the gate it would make more sense to use the atlantis gate for all earth travel. plus just having the abilty to cloak the city alone adds a huge safety factor.

and thus telford should have gone through the atlantis gate

If Atlantis is in the solar system, he would have arrived there. If it went back to Pegasus, he arrived at the SGC (or wherever Earth's analog gate is now).

Since Atlantis' status hasn't been mentioned since they arrived on Earth we have no way of knowing if they are still on Earth or if the city went back to Pegasus, i'd say it's more likely the Atlantis stargate was taken offline so the SGC gate could work it would be better than having to transport SG teams to atlantis every time a team had to go offworld, unless they used one of their ships and beamed them up and then back down to Atlantis, on second thoughts that wouldn't work either it would be time consuming beaming teams up and down not to mention a huge drain on power, and only one of those ships is equipped with a ZPM, and the ships may not always be available to beam teams up and down.

Or they could have relocated all the teams to Atlantis and shut down the SGC. Since I personally see Atlantis being back in Pegasus by now, I don't see that happening, but if it did stay on Earth (abandoning our allies in Pegasus and leaving us without a forward base to keep an eye on the Wraith), it would make sense to move operations there.
