A HUNDRED DAYS - Eposode #61
A planet that the SG-1 team is exploring gets unknowingly bombarded by a meteor shower and has to be evacuated. O'Neill stays behind to help find some lost natives and is trapped on the planet for 100 days.
NOTES OF INTEREST:
- Edora is the fourth planet in its solar system and its orbit passes through an asteriod belt. The resulting meteor shower, known as "Fire Rain" by the Edorans, occurs on the same nights every year. Every 150 years the irregularity of the orbits causes an impact event.
- Because the stargate was buried while the wormhole was active, the molten naquadah from the impact hardened above the event horizon like an iris, allowing the gate to still be reactivated. Subatomic particles from the particle beam generator bombarding the hardened naquadah produced energy and heat enough to melt the naquadah barrier and created a pocket of super-heated gas. The unstable vortex of gate activation expanded the pocket to create a cavern large enough for matter to reintegrate and for a person to get through.
- The Edorans are probably descendants of people brought to Edora by the Goa'uld thousands of years ago.
- Edora has valuable and abundant naquadah resources.
- The decay rate of naquadah is approximately 150 years, used for dating.
- O'Neill's grandfather is from northern Minnesota.
