Any sufficiently advanced QA department is indistinguishable from ascension.

Yeah, I had the timeline slightly wrong for how long it took them to get to earth. In my defence there's no evidence of them making Stargates pre Milky Way (he came up with the idea in the Ori home galaxy but they then spent a few thousand years looking for somewhere to settle), and we don't know how long the Alterrans lived, so it's just about plausible, but it's a bit of a reach.
- mjevans 11y agoWho says they weren't in cryo or otherwise suspended for most of that trip?
- Navarr 11y agoThe seed ships (SGU) had stargates though - I don't think those came out of the Milky Way, and I'm very sure they predate the Milky Way stargate system
- poopchute 11y agoThe show Stargate Universe is set on a alterran Galaxy seeding ship. The stargates in that show are definitely an earlier design than the milky way ones, demonstrated by their ability to only dial other gates within a few dozen light years instead of across the galaxy
- DRMacIver 11y agoTechnically they're an earlier design than the ones found in the Milky Way by the time of the show. But, um, honestly I hated Universe and didn't watch much of it, so it's not very surprising that this doesn't manage to be compliant with it.
