the best example of how this gate is less advanced is because the whole gate spins, but how?, the base is spinning it. when you see a gate in this season it is always attached to a base. in sg-1 the gates are seen by themselves and still operating because the inner disk rotates rather then the whole gate. in atlantis that gate doesnt have anything spinning and imo is not as cool as the milkyway version
@AntaresRam Actually Destiny and seed ships are started their journey from Earth, at least that's what they said on the show. The inner spinning gates are created in the Milkyway too. The gates you can see on SGU are just prototypes and created a few hundred years before the SG1 gates.
People who think this gate is newer are wrong. Destiny was sent away before the ancients reached the milky way. The destiny gate is actually one of the first models of gates the ancients made. It was developed while the ancients were headed to the milky way. Think about how much less sophisticated is compared to other newer ships the ancients had. The destiny was also equiped with an older gate. The destiny gate has a shorter range. After the destiny gate came the milky way gate then the pegasus
so this gate is suposed to be older and not as good as the SG-1 gates? Ok fair enough, so why does it light up (cool though it may be) similar to the Atlantis gate, which were ment to be the newest? Plus the ceverons are totally useless on this one if that nifty glowing ball does all the work, no?
@Matt2sugers The Milky way galaxy gates are older than the ones on Destiny. The gates in the Milky way galaxy are millions of years old. The destiny left the galaxy hundreds of thousands of years back... still younger than the MG gates.
@ketiw2 The gates are said to be less sophisticated. But it doesn't mean its older. The Ancients lived in the milky for who knows how long only to leave Earth 3 million years ago leaving Aiyana in Antartica. The Milky Way type gate had been there since that time. Destiny's gate was probably made as simple as needed for its function, since they are sending their technology to the far reaches of the Verse not knowing who might be able to access them. Don't want return call from a stranger.
@jutau The gates are older though, destiny was created before any other technology found in sga or SG-1, one note of this si that there is no 'special gene' which activates anything, Rush notes it's because Destiny is older than that technology.
@interes86 they already had stargates in our galaxy, which were later switched by the gates on SG-1. when the ancients left on a hurry, they didn't switch them with the new model that's on Altantis in the Pegasus galaxy.
@interes86 the gates in earth and across the milky way has 50 million years and more, and the destiny has only a few million years old like 1 or 2, and pegassus has 10 to 15 million years old, so the new ones are only from destiny ships.
@bartat404 ure wrong, milky way gates are older than 50millions years, cuz it was when the Ancients came to this galaxy which was their second galaxy they have been before they left his own, because of Ori conflicts, they came to our galaxy milky way like between 90 to 50millions years ago, and the first gate sg1 was using had more than 50millions years old, so what ive been tryin to say is, after that they started to travel all over the universe puting gates in every galaxy with destiny ships
@jutau Really , they are older :) Rush said that .. & they are smaller .) I think Destiny was made even far before ancients leave our galaxy. I think Destiny gate is 1st serial made stargate 2nd is Milky way SG and newest one is SG on Atlantis.
@Matt2sugers it maybe because of difference in galaxies, unlike SG-1 gates or SGA gates, these ones, were contantly changing addresses, so instead of putting a few cheverons, they put way more for more combinations and reuses of combinations... so cramped up together you MIGHT wanna see which one lights up so... yeah.
Or on my personal point of view, stargates with cheverons that lit up was the fashion, faded away and retro with SGA was back.
What if, If you zoom out the gate network, the whole universe with all the gates, on 1 screen, and connect the dots in some way, might it give a clue or say something. you never know, lol.
The new gate sucks IMO. It lights up completely, so you can't tell what chevron is being dialed, which makes it ironically less dramatic. I didn't even know there was a chevron indicator on the floor before- it's not obvious enough and a crap solution anyway.
hmmm, i have a question, if you look at the gate 0:31 the front face spins, not the back, but in episode 7, when they try to dial earth (Rush overloads it) the whole gate (front and back) are lite up and spinning... is it only suppose to spin front?
its an actual spinning gate, making the front plate spin is cheaper than making the whole spin, the rest of the gate spinning is added post-production
@wowman142@wowman142 Well, as Bartimayus said, the gate in the actual episode has been post-produced (changed with highly advanced computer graphics/animations) thus differs a lot from the one taken right off the set as seen in this small video.
The Chevron on the floor represents chevron(s) that have been locked, due to the whole gate being able to spin meaning that some of the time you wouldn't be able to know whether or not one of the symbols is locked without that chevron indicator on the floor. What gets me is why all the chevrons glow. I mean they should have a dim glow and only those with symbols being locked should have a brighter glow to them.
No there are only 9. The one on the floor is just to show all the the symbols dialed have been locked and turns on after the gate has finnished dialing and just as the gate activates. So you can only dial 9 chevron addresses. With the floor one only as a indicator. :-)
Yes. That's what I meant: 9 on the Gate, 1 in the floor -- the Gate TECHNICALLY has 10 Chevrons. I'm sorry, I never meant that I thought Chevron 10 was able to be dialed.

Shame people keep on arguing order of which gates were created 1st
Destiny & seeder ships created and sent to galaxies before the ancients came to our galaxy.
Older gate design - Everything needs to spin.
Ancients improve gate technology
Ori Galaxy - Inner Core Spins.
approx same time Ancients leave for Earth & replace with new model.
Ancients leave for pegasus much more advanced
Pegasus Gates - Chevron lights spin only.
It clearly shows an advancement of technology.

Destiny was launched from Earth and it was way before the gates present in SG-1 or even the Stargate movie were constructed.

Neither did I. So the Destiny Gate actually has 10 chevrons...
Shame the Ancients never kept this design. 10 is a nice, round, even number. Plus the gate is cooler than the other two.

No there are only 9. The one on the floor is just to show all the the symbols dialed have been locked and turns on after the gate has finnished dialing and just as the gate activates. So you can only dial 9 chevron addresses. With the floor one only as a indicator. :-)
