Episode Notes
In this episode, the team discoveres Project Arcturus, on planet Duranda, which was an attempt to the replace ZPM's by extracting Zero Point Energy from out side our own universe (to gain massively larger amounts), instead of from a self-contained region of subspace as with ZPM's.



Episode Quotes
Dex: Yeah, well, I've got a pretty strong stomach.
Rodney: Hey, I can eat frozen dinners without thawing them. It's not as if it even affects me.

Zelenka: Come on, McKay, you read the equations. What else could it be? An Ancient typo?
Rodney: Well, we know they're not perfect, because they're all dead. Look, I just... I just don't want you to get all excited over nothing.

Elizabeth: ... putting your life and other people's lives at risk. You destroyed three quarters of a solar system!
Rodney: Well, five sixths. It's not an exact science.

Col. Sheppard: Best case scenario?
Rodney: I win a Nobel Prize.
Col. Sheppard: Worst case scenario?
Rodney: We tear a hole in the fabric of the universe... which is much less likely to happen than the Nobel Prize.
