The History of the Destiny (SGU)

www.amazon.com/shop/omegaorda... Support the Channel Check out my store :) Looking for Stargate Convention Clips Go here: www.metacafe.com/channels/star... #nowplaying #series #show Extra-galactic Ancient exploratory vessel launched from Earth several hundreds of thousands of years ago, prior to when many Ancients began to focus on ascension. The ship became home to a reluctant crew from Earth after they discovered how to access it using the Stargate's ninth chevron.
Destiny (translated from its Ancient name) was designed to be a follow-up craft to numerous seeder ships which preceded it in the universe. These automated ships were sent out to gather data, resources, manufacture Stargates and deposit them on habitable worlds. Thus there may be hundreds to thousands of isolated Stargate networks in the universe.

I've been working my way through the entire SG library. I'm really disappointed that SGU ended prematurely. As a series it had real depth beyond SG-1 & Atlantis. The style of cinematography would probably hold up better today than when it was produced. Amazing story line, so much potential that was unrealized.

[@cypherdk85]

They did have to do something with SGU to continue the series, the humans in the show were too strong at that time after Atlantis, with how advanced they had gotten with their Daedalus class ships and Asgard beam weapons, so I quite liked the change of scenery to kinda set them back to being the underdogs again. I personally love the music in SGU the most of any of the shows, and you could tell that it had a much larger budget from the other shows (something like 1 mill dollars per episode of SGU), the set design was amazing and they really did a great job doing it. In my opinion some of the story was lacking in the first season, though it really did become much better in the second season.

[@padraigrd315]

Still doesn't mean the show is guaranteed to return, but we're getting closer and closer to that being a reality.

I love all Stargate shows and movies. The world building was complete but it is a pulpy show. SGU hit the spot for me. It was going for the grittiness of BSG but in the Stargate universe and I loved everything about it.

[@bassgasmask]

I loved SGU, the whole survival-drama theme of trying to stay alive, people at each other's throats, with no help from some sort government or military to bail them out, exploring new planets, like a walking dead/LOST version of stargate.

[@user-ep8ns6hg4q]

They should have made atlantis that way as well, only with less broken city or the wraith not being as dominate in the galaxy or as advanced, or actually having a 3rd non-human party in the fight that weren't replicators or overpowered allies like the asguard but only slightly more advanced with far fewer numbers than the wraith, or less advanced with far more numbers.

I really liked this Stargate show. Other than the story moving a little too slow it felt like it was more of a show for adults. I was extremely pissed off when it was canceled. I really hope they try to reeboot it or go back to where they left off. I really liked the story of the hidden messages in the CRB. Imagine finding the "Builder" or "God" that created the universe if that's what they were going for. Great video bud. Im glad I found your channel.

[@StargateOmega]

I had to watch this show twice, I really didn't like it the first time. But I really did enjoy the second time. I hope they don't do a reboot. But a continuation, and at the very least a movie would be great! They could very easily continue it, by saying there was a problem with the stasis pods. And everyone age normally, and the trip took longer than three years across the void. Do to a navigational anomaly or something didn't see in their path. Thank you very much Scott, I'm glad you found it too! Have a great day!😎👍

You are most welcome Hank. I'm sure we would have got a full history about it had it been allowed to continue.😎👍

[@IvanTuroc]

ok, this ship has been traveling thru the universe at thousands of times the speed of light, for 100's of thousands of years, and only visited 38 galaxies? The current theory of galaxy numbers put the amount of galaxies in our universe at a decillion galaxies. Yes that's a 1 with 33 zeros after it, As advanced as the Ancients were, you would have to assume there was more than one of them flying around.

[@DavidLemmo]

The seed ships were doing the bulk of the work, Destiny was merely the research vessel, collecting and interpolating everything. Also, Destiny's mission required it to take things slower, as it was engaged in a long term research mission, to find the answer to the mystery of the pattern in the cosmic background radiation.

[@thediplomasta5891]

Actually, it was traveling around for 50 MILLION years; If you were listening. And it was also making thousands of stops. Well, the seed ships were, at least. The writers were brilliant throughout all 3 shows. I figured sgu shutdown because the writers quit, or were out of ideas. Lol.

[@therearefourlights6926]

Yeah, the numbers do seem a bit off. How about it had traveled to 380,000 galaxies (Rush got the decimal place wrong), all more or less in a straight line from Earth? If the ship had been traveling for 50 million years that would allow for over 130 years exploring/traveling per galaxy. Which is still a long time in terms of the show. (I seem to remember them traveling to several galaxies in the span of the show) Personally I had thought the point of the ship was to pass beyond the horizon of the visable universe and thus be able to see more of the message in the background radiation. The seedships were estabishing a series of stargate to habitable worlds in case of problems at the same time allowing the ship to daisy-chain a link back to Earth. Concidering the time frame involved redundancy would be important. I don't see why they would want to waste a lot of time exploring galaxies, the message in the background radiation is not going to be hiding on a planet. But the further they travel the more of the background radiation would be viewable.

[@user-ep8ns6hg4q]

@@therearefourlights6926 The ship served dual purpose, they intended to seed the universe with life anywhere that was ideal as well. I think you're right about reading the decimal wrong though, or how long destiny has actually been in space, I don't believe they ever clarified if it's records compensated for it's the time dilation it put itself in by traveling faster than light, if destiny saw itself at 50 million years old, perhaps the trip itself has actually taken 500 million years, if we think about it, Andromeda alone is 2.5 million light years away and Pegasus 3 and they were traveling FTL.

[@numberslettersass]

The entire Stargate franchise should be restarted with the first few episodes revolving around getting Destiny and a seed ship back to earth. Then the new show could be based on teams seeding new worlds with stargates on a new gate network created and used by humans and their allies. Use a pair of stolen Ori supergates to get the ships back to our galaxy.

[@DJJonPattrsn22]

What supergate are they supposed to steal? Isn't the only known supergate connected to a gate in the pegasus galaxy & being powered by a black hole? Assuming the get it turned off somehow... How are they going to get the supergates to the other side of the universe where the Destiny is?

[@TonyP9279]

I don't think Destiny follows the seeder ships, at least closely. The seeder ships have to go to each planet, analyze whether or not it can support humanoid life and drop a stargate on it. The Destiny ship has to travel far enough away from the planets so the stargate won't dial itself.

[@DJJonPattrsn22]

You are absolutely right about Destiny not following the seed ships closely. The one acquired by the Ursini was somehow damaged and then salvaged by them. Preventing the stargate from dialing itself not the reason Destiny's course must avoid getting too close to planets; where did you come up with that BTW? As far as we know, the auto-dialing of the gate on Destiny occurs specifically in response to the crew's need for a natural resource that was recorded to exist on a planet in range of Destiny. (I'm assuming you didn't actually mean the stargate dialing its own address when you said "dial itself" because we know that's pointless & does nothing.) It is actually stars (and therefore by default/proximity planets) that Destiny must not get too close to. Otherwise it will get caught in its gravity well, as we saw happen with the solar system that was apparently created where 8 scientists from Destiny decided to stay.

[@user-ep8ns6hg4q]

@@DJJonPattrsn22 I'm pretty sure he's referring to the same problem SG-1 ran into when they were near the second gate in Antarctica and tried dialing earth, they had no idea they were on earth trying to dial to the same galactic location that they were already at (although at the moment i wish i could recall why the arctic gate didn't take priority over the one that rah brought since it was the original and it was connected to a DHD), the dialing sequence is based on location in space relative to other astral bodies, you dial in the location and it connects to the stargate, but if the gates are too close to each other they essentially share the same sequence and you get the busy signal.

[@DJJonPattrsn22]

@@user-ep8ns6hg4q OK, I got you. That makes sense. That's party of what I was trying to explain... There are actually several plot holes involving the Antarctica gate, in that episode (solitudes) and later episodes... A really solid answer to that question is never really offered. Although, it is at least implied that the original gate's DHD being broken (presumably for a very long time and therefore not communicating with the other DHDs & giving/getting updates) was the reason for it not being the dominant gate. They also seemed to imply that it was really just a fluke that the wormhole jumped to that gate since the DHD was broken. The biggest plot hole would be the period after Ra's gate was buried. Why aren't any travelers to earth routed through that gate instead of materializing it stone & becoming a fossil... But that whole idea is problematic because the kawoosh would vaporize everything in its path. And I'm not sure but I wonder if a wormhole can even open if the kawoosh is suppressed. I don't recall if this detail is addressed.

[@DJJonPattrsn22]

If I'm not mistaken, the seeder ships work was expected to be rather slow because they essentially had to scout out and map each galaxy and analyze the best candidate planets to investigate closet and potentially visit & scan in order to deposit a stargate; those chosen planets must also be placed along the route Destiny was meant to follow. They would also be seeking to mine & process the necessary minerals to manufacture the stargates. It seems likely that the ancients sent out multiple waves of seed ships perhaps for a number of consecutive generations.

[@user-ep8ns6hg4q]

@@DJJonPattrsn22 I definitely can't recall the episode, but they have definitely closed the iris during a dial in, it would also have kept anubis from keeping them locked out during the siege, the gate on atlantis was also able to be dialed into while the shield was up, there's also the episode where they dial a gate that is face down and completely buried in sand and were able to connect.

[@ceciliaageofaquarius1225]

Now they should come out with more movies. SG1. 😁

[@loopslytle]

Another interesting and enjoyable episode even though you did repeat yourself a lot this time. I think Destiny had a lot of possibilities if it had continued. Several actors gave good performance including; Robert Carlyle, Elyse Levesque ,David Blue, Alaina Huffman, and especially Ming-Na Wen. The fact that the 1st season was pretty bad should not have surprised anyone. Most sci-fi series start off poorly. Every Stargate and Star Trek series was like that. The biggest exception was probably Battlestar Galactica reimagined. BTW have you done a vid on the Furling? I could not find one and they always fascinated me, they were such a mystery. Have a great day and God bless you my brother. PS I'm sorry I did this series backwards.

SGU was an amazing show because they had to work _so_ hard for everything they accomplished. Unlike Atlantis where everything magically worked for them all the time, Destiny had to be claimed bit by bit, and the stakes were almost always life or death. SGU remains the best series in the franchise.

@@johnsnow8186 Exactly, it was a far more adult show than SG1 and Atlantis - both of which I love, but both of which often dip into the camp territory that sometimes give Science Fiction a bad name - SG-U almost never did that. It was objectively a better series than its predecessors, even if it was often less "fun". Brad Wright went on to create the astoundingly good series Travelers, which whilst a very different series to SG-U, shares some of the same themes, tone and intellect (it too was cancelled, after 3 seasons - but did at least have a proper ending). Unfortunately SG-U didn't get a lot of love from Stargate fandom as they saw it as a usurper to the much beloved Atlantis, and I think it was perhaps a little too adult for some to view as a family show which probably also hurt its ratings.

I think there were various clues that was the case, but the Ancients planned to send a team to board the ship LONG before the Icarus team arrived!

And there are also many systems and features which were not automated, but which had not yet been discovered/activated.

[@cypherdk85]

Well there were repair robots, they used them in the show to repair the engines and the large dome. Though those needed to be sent out in order to make repairs. It is possible that the 2 they had in the show (I think it was 2) were "spares" and perhaps there had been more in the past that had automatically repaired the ship through other encounters, it is a very old ship so anything is possible, but that is just a thought I had on it.

It actually collects stellar material for power generation: stargate.fandom.com/wiki/Destiny#Power_generation I'd guess the technology is basically a fusion generator, and that this power system was chosen due to the abundance of stellar hydrogen throughout the universe.

[@mimib6253]

Dude that's what the Stargate Universe needs...lIke Stars Wars has theirs: an animated series!

[@StargateOmega]

definitely an animated series done like the clone wars would be great. They did do an animated series called Stargate Infinity, I think but it wasn't really that good.😎👍

[@DJJonPattrsn22]

Something doesn't add up... 50,000,000 years ago the Destiny was launched from Earth during that time it crossed 38 galaxies. During the 2 years of SGU Destiny crossed much of one galaxy, crossed the void to another and got through almost half of that galaxy.

Hey I got better equipment and more soul now loll. But I moved this show to my main channel omega ordained a few months ago 😎👍

[@raedgaj3878]

It's a pity they didn't go for another season, I thought the show was only getting started. Surely scripts were being written with endless possible scenarios, as is the universe, so it's shame none were able to tickle the money men's fancy, as that is the only reason they wouldn't give it another go ahead. Robert Carlisle played an amazing character, but I felt they never used his full potential as an actor.

[@scotiancoast4498]

I was so pissed when they canceled this show. Shows today get way less viewers and they get renewed for multiple seasons.

[@zack6192]

Instead of doing another Star Gate. They should do the ancients star gate instead. Go back in time to formation and building out of the star gates. The struggles they had the species they met and had conflicts with. And to end it.. they figure out how to ascend while at the same time sending Destiny out with a small crew to investigate the mysterious anomaly at some future date. Change it from Star Gate command to the real origins the gate builders and their struggle to survive. Keep in mind the final few episodes of the series before you start the series so it can ended well and not end up like SGU in a cliff hanger... where a lot of folks wanted more. SGU was designed to grow over time.. not be an instant hit. I figure these directors and producers want something instant instead of building out a franchise over time.

[@StargateOmega]

That is a fantastic idea! I would so totally watch that!😎👍

[@GalaxyGeassS2]

The Asgard ships in 6.12 went from the Milky Way to Ida galaxy in 3 hours. 2.5 Mly distance. Pegasus is 3 Mly. If the Destiny is, lets just say 10 Billion Lightyears away. (Quote from series " several billion lightyears from earth") 10,000,000,000 ÷ 2,500,000 = 4000 4000 x 3 (hours) = 12000 hours 12000 ÷ 24 = 500 500 days to reach the same distance the Destiny has in millions years. Honestly the Destiny seems like it was a early endeavour long forgotten by the ancients, considering they were meant to be at least as if not more advanced than the Asgard.

[@ranirahn]

Argard's history is 100,000 years old, so they didn't even exist when Destiny began his journey. Just like in the series, Rush said the journey is more important than the destination because the mystery needs pieces of the puzzle one by one. If some pieces are missing, you may not be able to complete the puzzle.

[@shawn-michealbrunet6353]

Just get Atlantis with 3zpm can just uses the wormhole drive and pickup destiny

[@battlesheep2552]

I always thought the Ancients didn’t put too much research into FTL because they relied so heavily on the stargates, so the Asgard had better FTL even though overall the Ancients were more advanced

[@user-ep8ns6hg4q]

@@battlesheep2552 And the asgard had gotten gates from the ancients, so they had no need to research gate technology only FTL. Sharing technology for the ancients and asgardians was more about proving yourself as a species rather than just being an advanced civilization, since they were all part of the same alliance based on mutual admiration and respect they had no reason to withhold technology from one another.

[@mrpurcountry]

A little less loud music would make it easy to follow your narration.

[@qdllc]

This was a ship (and show) that never made sense. Atlantis is over 2 million years old as it departed Antarctica that long ago. They had the Ancient gene activation tech and the tech in "today's" Atlantis matches the tech at the Ancient outpost in Antarctica. IN SPITE OF THIS.... Real space FTL rather than hyperspace...explainable only if the ship is intended to trace "the signal" while in flight at all times (not possible in hyperspace). Stargates MORE PRIMITIVE than Milky Way models...which are newer? No crew but has been in flight for MILLIONS of years with no crew or apparent way to perform maintenance and repairs. Since Ancient technology isn't self-repairing nor so durable it doesn't suffer damage, the only explanation would be an auto-repair system...which is never mentioned or indicated in SG Atlantis canon. Then you have a "crew" of people so dysfunctional that arguably they would never have made the cut to be in the SGC to begin with. Too much effort to appeal to the wrong crowd and a lack of attention to detail when designing the story line.

[@legopatbuilder]

the comics which provide a lot of the "lore" regarding the timings, is awful. If that stuff is ignored the timings make a lot more sense. In regards to the damage, the ship was presumably more advanced than all other tech it encountered, so taking minimal damage which only became severe over time, and it just so happened that the icarus crew arrived potentially near to the end of destinys life. in regards to how disfunctional the crew is, it would have been like living in hell for them, constant danger and struggle, lack of sunlight or proper food and stress would explain most of them, as well as them being scientists too. most of the military coped better than the civilians

[@acefire4050]

First thing is destiny has an additional dialing thing connect to a planet with that same type of dialing thing cuz no other Stargate can connect to it because they're different do you think you can make a phone call from a phone to a sonic wave communicator no you can't the two different things just like the Stargates are two different things destiny has a Stargate then all other Stargate and the only left a few behind and which was actually set it when the first ships left and set the stargates on different planets make a new phone numbers for each one only be able to connect to those ships and those planets. SO2 for them to call back home they got to find another planet the has the same Target that is on destiny with extra shenron but every time someone finds one of those they call destiny and go to destiny. But good thing is there's at least fifty of them in the Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda Galaxy because as they left they sent Gates down in certain planets all over the ten or twenty ships that left and they pretty much follow a similar path from one another just not the same path meaning there many of those Stargates in each Galaxy they went through but I don't know if destiny put down Stargates as well and if it does what you told once means there is another ship that is behind them yet that is traveling on a similar path praise looks the exact same as they are in destiny with another ship two years behind it. One of the first shows showed that of sending out another Stargate onto a planet as it was about to leave that spot to go to nother spot some who knows how far away. Which also means there is another ship the ancient had sent to take the same or similar travel through the stars and that there are many more ASL in front of it that are still setting Gates down plants and maybe moons . And it is one way for the ancients to plant life throughout the universe. Because they started in one Galaxy that came Milky Way galaxy started at there and then went to Andromeda galaxy and started it thier. So every place that the ancients gone they created more life in the last ones recreate it was the rath . I don't know which ancient decided to creates them but the other ancients regretted that and if they would have entered destiny they would have been keep creating life father and father out as a gone. And besides if they built another ship like that that's following destiny some ancients may be on that or their children because not all ancients were part of building those ships. Just like Earth is not all one Nation there are many different nations many different nations that do many different things temperature of the ancients had it the same way.

No the reason why they didn't enter the ship is not because sentient it is because maybe some of them grew old and died and because of all the different wars from the three different galaxies and other things that happened Ascension k many many many years later and many generations later and when they built that ship I'm building an Andromeda system they built it like maybe ten thousand years before it may not be ten thousand years before that just but many many many years before that several generations before that Eleanor generations might of not known about it without going through ancient old computer documents. And yes Atlantis was there first and that ship was kind of like a Xscape but they had ran from one galaxy to the Milky Way galaxy somehow started life there are many different areas and then they move to Andromeda and seated life there when they ask you should have been have gone to destiny instead of going to the Andromeda Galaxy like I said they forgot all about it.
