Well, I only saw that coming since last week. *sigh*
Was the episode itself any good? I'll only be able to see it on Tuesday myself.

I thought everyone had seen it.
I think it is pretty well done, the outcome is predictable, but they capture the feelings of those who think their about to die:

Even though Rockey called it last week I still thought it was an excellent episode. By now anyone reading this thread SHOULD have seen the show. So that said this will be the last time I put a spoiler tag on this thread. Seriously, who reads a discussion about an episode without seeing the episode?

None. They always surrender right before they finish the job and never tell you why.

Re: SG:U 1X05 "Light"
I don't think the show airs in uk until tuesday after you get it in the US.
Anyway, I've seem it and thought it was a decent enough ep. Not spectacular but dr rush is starting to grow on me more.

Where does it get the materials for that? Naqahduh isn't found just everywhere.

It's also and incredibly advanced BIG fucking ship. So either they could have just brought a lot of them or maybe just like it refuels maybe it stops to mine asteroids or something from time to time.
If you think about it a Stargate isn't that large. In a space the size of a basketball court two decks high you could probably store a few hundred of them.

If you're ship can transport materials right out of a planet, I don't think its hard to do.

Re: SG:U 1X05 "Light"
I thought the other unmanned ships did that, and the Destiny is supposed to follow up and explore.Deepcrush wrote:

Re: SG:U 1X05 "Light"
The sensors I could see, but not stargate's, that was the job of the ships that came before the Destiny

Re: SG:U 1X05 "Light"
Destiny is like the second gen. Seems they come in waves. First one locates maybe a few planets for stargates in a galaxy. Second one, Destiny populates some more, then the next one fills in the blanks. Not the most efficient way of laying Stargates I think.
One more thing, in Atlantis we see a Lantean Battle Cruiser take the full force of a solar storm blasting against its shields (or was that an x303? I think it was a Lantean ship, but they're about equal in shields anyway). Does setting a ship to protect against weapon fire mean it can't fly into a star anymore? The solar flare didn't destroy the ship but it did damage it. Destiny wasn't even harmed. It didn't even shake.

Re: SG:U 1X05 "Light"
They probably developed systems unique to those ships to be able to fly into stars, that they didn't put on their other ships because they didn't plan on flying in to stars.
Also I think that there are only 2 gens of these ships, a bunch went out first to explore and deposit stargates, then Destiny went out to follow the most interesting course, that's why there is a stargate on Destiny so the Ancients could go to the ship once it was far enough away, and populate different galaxies.
