ENIGMA - Eposode #16
SG-1 travels to a planet in ruins, whose lone survivors are dead and dying at the foot of the Stargate. SG-1 rescues the people who are still alive, taking them back to Earth. Needless to say, the SGC's new visitors are less than grateful to be there.
NOTES OF INTEREST:
- The last Tollan team stayed behind to seal the gate before going to a new settlement planet outside the gate system. Ten human refugees survived the destruction of Tollan and were relocated to the Nox home world.
- Sarita, the nearest planet to Tollan, with a similar technological level to Earth, used the Tollan device that produces unlimited productive energy to make war, resulting in the destruction of Sarita in one day, and a shift in the orbit of Tollan that caused instability and its eventual destruction.
- There have been no animals on Tollan for generations.
- Readings from the miniature UAV: Ground temperature 1700 degrees F. Air temperature 200 to 1500 degrees F. Atmosphere containing pyroclastics, basalt, ash. Lava flowing toward the stargate, to be buried within days.
- Sher-mal: Legendary Tollan figure similar to an angel, said to appear at the moment of death and take you to her dwelling in the stars
- Physicist Erwin Schrodinger theorized that a cat in a box with a can of poison gas activated by the decay of a radioactive atom would, at any one instant, be both dead and alive at the same time.
- Quilebrium physics, Tollan equivalent of quantum physics, a "misconception of elementary science", states that an atom's state is indeterminate until measured by an outside observer.
- Tollan technology includes devices to produce unlimited energy, to alter molecular structure of solid matter, and to record emotions.
- Colonel Maybourne from NID, replaces Colonel Kennedy, who was promoted.
