Geography and ecology across galaxies: a comparison

[aesmael]

Although the galaxies depicted in Stargate: SG1 and Stargate: Atlantis exhibit a remarkable frequency of terrestrial, habitable planets, it is also notable that such worlds in each galaxy exhibit generally a distinct, consistent terrain.

Specifically, nearly every world on each show is a forest, and the same forest within the show, but a different one between shows. Clearly significant - this researcher thinks the Atlantis forest looks greener and has higher resolution leaves than the SG1 forest, and possibly indicative of seeding by a hitherto unknown precursor species separate to the Ancients, or possibly merely a shift in Ancient aesthetic.

Yep, the galaxies are full of worlds that look like Canada. ^_^

Good thing Canada is pretty, then.

Does that mean that the galaxies also have socialized medicine and gay marriage?

If they do, I for one intend to terraform a world in one of them and apply for citizenship.

Sounds like a plan to me.

Of course, moving to British Columbia would be cheaper... We could bug Jenn Dolari!

Actually, "Live in British Columbia" has been on my list of things to do for about eight years now. ^_^ I really need to make that road trip up to Stanley Park soon...

Kewl! I'll dust off the sofabed then, shall I?

Well, now that you mention it, I have been looking for more excuses to visit Vancouver, and I don't actually know much of anyone there right now. Perhaps I should make a point of that.

Ack? Why haven't I filled out that bloody passport application?

(Ah right--money!)

I'll be available to play tourguide for the first week of July : )

[pazi-ashfeather.livejournal.com]

Hrm. I'll let you know!

XDDD

And they all look like vegetation native to Canada! Or to be more precise, British Columbia xDDD
