Childhood's End - S1-E6

Corrected entry: After returning from Atlantis base Dr. McKay says he landed the jumper a little outside of the range of the EM-field. At the end of the show, when the field is reactivated, he says he found a way to increased the range of the device by some 50 percent. As the jumper has been landed outside of the area previously covered by the field, he should now be inside it again, however the jumper still is able to start (you can hear the engines coming on-line).

Christoph Galuschka

Correction: There is nothing to suggest the EM field is spherical with the generator at the center. McKay could have enlarged it in a triangular shape with the kids village at one point, leaving the jumper safely outside it.

Grumpy Scot

Correction: It is not an error if a character is wearing a necklace that does not match the character's own initials. There are many plausible reasons to wear such a neclace, such as the neclace belonged to someone she loved or missed.

Show generally

Corrected entry: Dr. Weir says that the Atlantis gate is the only one that can dial back to the Milky Way from Pegasus galaxy. SG-1 has already confirmed that any stargate can travel intergalactically if it has the power. That's what the 8th chevron does. You need a Naquadah generator or Zero Point Module to provide the extra power though.

Grumpy Scot

Correction: This is answered in episode #108, all the Pegasus Stargates are missing a crystal except for the Atlantis gate, this crystal allows it to dial to other galaxies.

Sol Parker

Correction: Why would you say that? While it's not a good idea to store a gun in a loaded condition, people accidently shoot themselves almost everyday with "unloaded" guns.

Sateda - S3-E4

Revealing mistake: When they are escaping in the beginning of the episode, watch Rodney dial. As he finishes, one of the DHD address panels pops out and falls off.

Dr. Rodney McKay: Did I mention that I know almost everything about almost everything?

More quotes from Stargate: Atlantis

Trivia: In the final episode, 'Enemy at the gates' Sam Carter says that the new ship is to be named the General George Hammond in memory of the character Hammond who had died of a heart attack. This is a tribute to Don S. Davies, who played Hammond, who sadly died of a heart attack in June 2008, shortly after filming Stargate Continium.

Season 1 generally

Question: Why can't they use every last iota of energy they've got and dial earth and ask them to send them any ZPM's that they could find?

Answer: Because even all 4 Naquadah generators (one was destroyed) together is only enough to dial Earth for approximately 1.2 seconds (As seen in the episode "Letter from Pegasus"). Further, if Earth had found a ZPM, they would dial Atlantis and let them know. After all, the SGC has no other use for a ZPM than to dial Atlantis.
