Storyline

With the threats of both the Replicators and the Goa'uld greatly diminished and the sister ship to the Prometheus, the Daedalus, now under construction, SG-1 is anxious to get a ride on the new ship. However, the mood is somewhat darkened by a phone call informing Dr. Jackson of Catherine Langford's death. After the funeral, Catherine's niece gives Daniel "a few odds and ends" that her aunt wanted him to have. Upon delivery it is discovered that almost her entire collection was shipped to Daniel's lab. He finds in one of her books a possible location of a ZPM, but scans of the area showed that it was no longer there. Daniel proposes that they use the Ancient time machine to take it from Ra at Giza in 3000 BC.

Goofs

When the "Puddle Jumper" travels into the past, Teal'c states "the stars are different." Carter also notes "Earth was in a different orbit around the sun 5,000 years ago." Significant changes in the earth's orbit around the sun occur over millions not thousands of years. Even if the orbit had changed this would not affect the apparent positions of the stars. In fact, as seen from the Earth, the positions of the stars and constellations have changed very little in only 50 centuries.

Promising Beginning

Daniel inherits Catherine Langford´s collection after her death and he finds that Ra had a ZPM five-thousand years ago. Sam decides to use the time machine and go with Jack, Daniel and Teal´c to 3000 BC to steal the ZPM from Ra. However something happens and changes the timeline affecting the present days. What will happen next?

"Moebius: Part 1" is a promising beginning of an interesting story divided in two parts. It is funny and highly entertaining. My vote is eight.
