I bought those original television series "Stargate SG-1" episodes for research purposes. You know: because I see the sun shining in the sky.
Only just now a few minutes ago did I read the description about that production and I decided I might watch it now.

BA'AL
(a bit surprised)
SG-1 and General Jack O'Neill. Well, well.
O'NEILL
How's tricks, B?
BA'AL
I've been better, I'm afraid. And you?
O'NEILL
(jovially)
Not so bad, actually. Quite good.
BA'AL
(menacing)
How nice for you.
O'NEILL
How about those last words?

DANIEL
What's goin' on?
O'NEILL
You been shoppin' on line lately?
[Siler hands O'Neill a clipboard and leaves.]
DANIEL
Whatcha talkin' about?
O'NEILL
(handing Daniel the clipboard)
Well, you got a little delivery here.
DANIEL
(reading the clipboard paperwork)
It's from Catherine's estate.
O'NEILL
Yeah, kinda looks like she sent the whole thing.
[Daniel finally walks into his office, finding it completely full of boxes and artifacts.]
DANIEL
Holy… Looks like her entire collection.
O'NEILL
(patting Daniel on the shoulder)
I prefer stamps.
[O'Neill leaves; Daniel is in a state of shock.]
INT—SGC BRIEFING ROOM
[Dr. Cameron Balinsky is enthusiastically showing some cored-out rock samples to O'Neill as another scientist looks on. O'Neill is obviously bored, resting his head in his hand.]
BALINSKY
(holding up one of the samples)
Now, in addition, we discovered several grains of troilite, and a mesostasis phase which contained micrometer crystals.
O'NEILL
Hmmmm…
BALINSKY
Now it's undergoing further testing, but we hope to have the results on your desk first thing tomorrow morning.
O'NEILL
(shaking a piece of the rock, clearly not serious)
Don't you keep me waiting!
BALINSKY
No, sir.
(taking a different sample from his colleague and showing it to O'Neill)
Now here's where things get really interesting, because you will notice in this fissure—
[Daniel comes running into the room.]
DANIEL
Jack! We need to— We need to talk. Oh, sorry for interrupting.
O'NEILL
(grabbing Daniel very firmly by the forearm)
No! It's okay. If it's important, you must interrupt. You must.
[Balinsky nods, disappointed.]
DANIEL
(grimacing slightly)
I think we may have found a ZPM.
O'NEILL
(leaping to his feet)
Yes!

INT—SGC BRIEFING ROOM
[SG-1 and O'Neill are seated at the table. Carter slides some paper diagrams over to O'Neill.]
CARTER
We did an extensive satellite sweep of the Giza Plateau searching for an energy signature like the one given off by the ZPM we found near Taonas. Even if it's buried under dirt and rock, we should have been able to detect it. We found nothing. I'm sorry, Daniel, but if it's there, it's probably been depleted.
DANIEL
No, I don't think so. According to the text, it was a religious artifact, an icon. It was never used as a power source.
TEAL'C
It is possible Ra simply took the device with him when he left Earth.
CARTER
In which case, it could be anywhere by now.
DANIEL
(looking a bit sheepish)
We don't know where it is now, but we do know where it was. Giza, 3000 B.C.
CARTER
(shaking her head)
You can't be serious.
O'NEILL
(confused)
What.
DANIEL
It's the only way.
O'NEILL
What.
CARTER
No, we agreed.
O'NEILL
If I have to say 'what' one more time, heads are gonna roll!
DANIEL
We have a time machine. We can go back and get the ZPM.
O'NEILL
(annoyed)
She wouldn't let me go back and watch the Cubs win the World Series.

O'NEILL
You're on board with this?
CARTER
I'm not happy about it, but we don't have any historical evidence to show that any Goa'uld has ever used a ZPM. In which case, it wouldn't be missed. We would have to be extremely careful to minimize our interaction with the people of the period.
O'NEILL
Yeah, there's that. But I thought you said you couldn't get it to work?
CARTER
No one at Area 51 has been able to engage the time device. In fact, they've barely gotten the ship off the ground. But you were able to fly it without too much difficulty.
TEAL'C
Indeed. You have demonstrated an exceptional ability to control Ancient devices.
DANIEL
Jack, think about it. With a fully functional ZPM, we could power Earth's defenses and open up a wormhole to the Pegasus Galaxy.
[O'Neill looks at Carter, who nods in agreement. O'Neill looks thoughtful but unconvinced.]
EXT—SPACE ABOVE EARTH
[The Puddle Jumper with the time device is flying above Earth.]
INT—PUDDLE JUMPER
[Daniel and O'Neill are sitting in the pilot chairs as Carter works on the time device. Teal'c is standing behind Daniel.]
DANIEL
Now remember, Jack, 3000 B.C. After Sam hooks up the power to the time device, think about that date and nothing else.
O'NEILL
This thing's Ancient. How's it gonna know from B.C.?
CARTER
Your mind is controlling it. The Ancient computer should be able to extrapolate from your concept of time.

How long does it take Antarctica to notice the Northern Hemisphere is warming?
Filed under: Climate Science — eric @ 29 April 2015
Eric Steig
A series of large and abrupt climate changes occurred during the last ice age, most clearly expressed in ice cores from Greenland and other paleoclimate data from the circum-North-Atlantic region. Since the discovery of these events, we’ve been trying to pin down the timing of abrupt climate changes elsewhere on the globe. Were there corresponding events in the Southern Hemisphere? And did they occur at the same time? A new paper published this week in Nature (April 30th, 2015) provide a significantly updated answer to these questions. Many in the climate research community — both modern climate and paleoclimate — will find the results quite interesting.
The new paper is the culmination of a huge effort to develop the best-dated long ice core record from Antarctica, rivaling the GISP2 and GRIP ice cores obtained from central Greenland in the early 1990s, and the more recent NGRIP and NEEM cores from North Greenland (e.g. NEEM Community Members, 2014). The core was obtained at the West Antarctic Ice Sheet divide (WAIS Divide), led by the Desert Research Institute and the University of Nevada, with the University of New Hampshire. The new paper was written by a consortium of postdocs, faculty, and students at the Oregon State University and University of Washington: Christo Buizert, myself, and Joel Pedro (now at University of Copenhagen), with Brad Markle, Ed Brook, Jeff Severinghaus and Ken Taylor. We have more than 70 other co-authors — faculty colleagues, students, postdocs, logistics coordinators, and ice-drillers — who all made substantial contributions as well. These deep ice cores are a lot of work!
We published records from the WAIS Divide ice core in 2013, covering the last two millennia and the last 30 thousand years (Steig et al., 2013, WAIS Divide Project Members, 2013). Our new work, WAIS Divide Project Members, 2015, extends the record to the bottom of the core (nearly the bottom of the ice sheet at 3400 m depth), and an age of 68 thousand years. Details on the timescale for the core are given in the open-access paper in Climate of the Past (Buizert et al., 2015). The new paper in Nature provides a comparison of the timing of changes in Antarctic temperature with the timing of the abrupt warming and cooling events that characterize the Greenland ice core records. Note that the comparison is actually made between the records of oxygen isotope ratios (δ18O), but we have very strong evidence that these track temperature quite faithfully on the relevant timescales, so I’ll use “temperature” here for simplicity.
The abrupt events in Greenland, characterized by rapid transitions from cold “stadial” to warm “interstadial” conditions and back, and commonly known as Dansgaard-Oeschger (D-O) events, were felt across the Northern Hemisphere almost immediately, as far as we can tell. But the impact of D-O events in Antarctica has been ambiguous. We’ve known for some time that temperatures in Antarctica change more slowly, and with much smaller amplitude, than in the Northern Hemisphere. In general, the Antarctic temperatures begin to decline when Greenland warms abruptly, and to increase when Greenland cools abruptly (Blunier et al., 1998). This relationship is often called the “bipolar seesaw” and is commonly attributed to the redistribution of heat between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres via changes in the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC). We’ve also been pretty sure that each of the D-O interstadials has a corresponding warm peak in Antarctica, referred to as the “Antarctic Isotope Maximum” (AIM) events (EPICA Community Members, 2006, and Stefan Rahmstorf’s write-up in an earlier RealClimate post). But the exact phase relationship has been unknown, making it problematic to validate model simulations with confidence (see e.g. Roe and Steig, 2004, Steig, 2006).
The first paper to really start to pin down the phase relationship was that of Pedro et al., 2011, who showed that the most recent of the major abrupt events in Greenland cores (the Bølling warming about 14,700 years ago and the Younger Dryas cooling about 12,880 years ago), the direction of Antarctic temperatures changed at almost exactly the same time. (Note that the Antarctic temperatures don’t change abruptly — their slow trends simply reverse sign, as shown in the figure). But the uncertainties estimated by Pedro et al. were about 200 years on either side of zero. That’s impressively good precision for something that happened more than 10,000 years ago, but not quite good enough.

O'NEILL
Well, shouldn't we test it on a slightly smaller leap? Like say, to 1908?
CARTER
Actually sir, we were able to determine from the data log that the technology only works in time jumps longer than a couple hundred years.
[The time device comes to life after Carter's efforts.]
CARTER
I think that's it.
DANIEL
3000 B.C.
O'NEILL
(sarcastically)
Any particular day in the century for ya?
[Daniel closes his eyes, encouraging O'Neill to focus on the proper date. O'Neill closes his eyes and places his hands on the controls. Behind him the device comes to life, humming more and more loudly.]
EXT—SPACE ABOVE EARTH
[The Puddle Jumper is briefly enveloped in a distortion wave.]
INT—PUDDLE JUMPER
[The time device is becoming quiet again.]
O'NEILL
What happened?
DANIEL
I didn't feel anything.
CARTER
(walking forward, to Daniel)
The time machine pulsed. Try the radio.
