Stargate: Universe - "Air" - tv series premiere episodes 1 & 2 of 3 - 10/02/2009
(from internet transcript, me)
(On a platform at the edge of a cliff, Senator Armstrong, Chloe, Eli and Doctor Rush are beamed down from the George Hammond. The platform is protected with rail guns and mounted machine guns but it's not these that immediately catch Eli's attention.)
WALLACE: Holy ...!
(He hurries to the edge of the platform to get a better view. It's hundreds of feet high above a plateau with a runway, along which is taxiing an F-302 fighter plane. In the distance are various mountain ranges. The mountain in which the base is built has other platforms, all of them full of weaponry. Colonel Young comes over to the group.)
YOUNG: Senator. It is my honour to welcome you to Icarus Base.
SENATOR (shaking his hand): Colonel.
(He introduces him to Chloe.)
SENATOR: This is my executive assistant, Chloe.
ARMSTRONG (shaking Young's hand): It's a pleasure to meet you, sir.
YOUNG: The pleasure's mine.
SENATOR: She's also my daughter.
(Lieutenant Scott finally arrives, a little breathless. Colonel Young looks at Eli.)
YOUNG: You must be the ...
WALLACE: ... contest winner! Yeah.
(He turns and sees the rail gun above his head.)
WALLACE: That is a big gun!
(He lifts his camera phone up to take a picture of it.)

Why Roland Emmerich Gave Up On Stargate
The original film director says he is done with Stargate, because the rights to the franchise are too complicated.
Darren
August 5, 2024
Today long-time Stargate fans and newcomers alike are waiting on the studio to issue any kind of public statement about their plans for the franchise — difficult or not. Will Stargate continue to remain on hold, because the rights are too complicated (or perhaps for some other reason still unknown to the public)? Or will they find a way to get it done and continue one of contemporary science fiction’s most beloved universes?
Fans are still waiting.

COCHRANE: I already know.
KIRK: You wouldn't mind telling us?
COCHRANE: You won't like it.
KIRK: I already don't like it.
COCHRANE: You're here to keep me company.
KIRK: You mean you brought us here?
COCHRANE: No, the Companion did. I told it I'd die of loneliness. I thought it would release me. Instead, it brought you here.
NANCY: No! No! No! That's disgusting! We're not animals! No! Oh, no! It's inhuman! No! No!

SO WHEN did NOAA transition to that package of triple-solid-state sensors?
And why the redundancy?
Failure, of course, to guard against
But what about discrepancy?
WHO decides which sensor to select from?
WHO is deciding what measurement is recorded?
I've heard it on the local live-tv news before with their own professional-meteorologists
There was actual disappointment that the weather did not break a record on any given past occurrence, I can recall thinking as I watched the tv report

Zefram COCHRANE: The temperature's a constant seventy two degrees. Let me get you something cool to drink.
MCCOY: Do you feel hot?
NANCY: I feel infuriated, deeply put upon, and absolutely outraged.
MCCOY: It was quite a hike here. You're tired. Just take it easy for a while.
NANCY: I'll rest later, Doctor.
