There's an amazing break down of how the gates work, with regards to 9 chevrons, explaining what happened here. Every single gate has a 9 chevron address, and dialing that address goes to _that_ gate specifically. That is why every gate has 9 chevrons to begin with. Every gate address less then 9 is a spatial coordinate to the rough location within a gate network, in a galaxy. The 8th chevron targets the specific gate network, Ori, Pegasus etc. The classic 7 chevron address references a location in space. The difference between the 9 chevron code and then the spatial addresses is the spatial sends a targeted subspace pulse to that spatial coordinate, finds the primary gate( the one connected to a DHD) or failing that just any gate there, and a wormhole is established. The 9 chevron address sends a radial pulse outwards, expanding, drawing more power until it hits the exact target gate. In the case of Destiny, they had no idea that radial pulse was reaching halfway across the known universe. With all of this in mind, I wish we could get the answer to if they could dial a gate from the SGC, to another gate on earth using it's 9 chevron address.

The 9th is specifically for Destiny, and most likely both to dial to and from it, since it's always moving.

What if there were potential for more than 9 chevrons, but needed to create a network and destinations first, maybe tearing more than a planet apart, maybe risking self annihilation itself as the Borg Queen put it... 'Shatter to mend'... Cells divide and can be altered/programmed, so maybe it borders creationism... Not to undermime god but God created things somehow. What's to say the understandings aren't being reached to a level of potentially doing what God did...? Makes you wonder about the relativeness between the concepts of the heavens and hells, and about god and where true gods may have come to be, may reside, and of our own origins and of our origins origins and so on.... 🤔

Notice how when they are dialing earth, chevron lock almost all happen mid sentence of the discussion, but when the ship dials another planet and Rush takes the lead, every single chevron lock happens exactly during pauses between explanations and/or questions.

@marvinmallette6795

This discrepancy might explain why it was so difficult to figure out the 7 chevron address system in the original Stargate. The "Point of Origin" signals the end of the "number" to "dial". If the point of origin is not entered correctly, then the gate may accept up to 9 chevrons before failing. In the miniseries "Stargate Origins: Catherine", they discover a 7 chevron address different from the one on the cover stone in the "Stargate" movie. The gate address on the cover stone being only six symbols, left them with three examples 6, 7, and 9. One has to wonder if Orion signals that a password to a specific gate was entered, or if any other 9th Chevron gate addresses might be completely random. 9 digit passwords with a limited number of presumably non-repeatable characters, should not be impossible to brute force. Energy requirements for gates located outside of the Milky Way, or the possibility that the Nox might have buried Stargates with direct connections removing them from the active Stargate network to be detected by the SGC, might have thwarted efforts to discover 9th Chevron addresses. Surely by the end of Stargate: Atlantis' run, and the beginning of Stargate: Universe, the SGC had sufficient technology and familiarity with Ancient technology to improve their ability to search for non-standard gate addresses.

The DHD is not just a dialing device. It contains a lot of software to operate the Stargate. Since those scientists had no idea what the 9th chevron is for they couldn't really program everything necessary into the dialing software. So hooking a DHD into the system should ensure that everything is in place. However, since we're still kind of improvising by using a planet as a power source (which was clearly not the original plan, because the Ancients had other power sources and probably intended to board Destiny from Earth), we still need our computer to do the energy calculations while dialing and making sure the right amount of energy is flowing into the system.

Destiny travels though FTL instead of hyperspace. It’s similar but I believe slightly slower than hyperspace travel. Also Destiny drops out of FTL automatically when it detects an incoming wormhole.

Also that crazy idea about Destiny is traveling to the very core of the Universe to answrr a signal coming from their, which if you havent figured out is actually Destinys own log transmission from when it finally arrives at the core , the ship is somehow traveling back in time to the Big Bang and the signal being recieved is their signal travelling millions of light years would be getting recieved in the present day.
