The Asgard database gave the Tau'ri access to extremely advanced knowledge and technology that, when combined with their access to the knowledge in Atlantis, gave them an unparalleled superiority over the other known races in the known universe. The Tau'ri have developed many technologies based on what SG teams have brought back from trips to other planets via the use of the Stargate on Earth. While the term "Tau'ri" originally applied to all human beings in the galaxy, it has come to apply specifically to those who currently live on Earth as the Stargate Program proceeded to explore the galaxy. In my head cannon (boom! Before abandoning the Milky Way for the Pegasus galaxy to rebuild their great civilization, the Ancients enacted measures to reseed the galaxy with life. Much of the early alien technologies that Stargate Command was able to procure was of Goa'uld origins. (SG1: "Unending"), Sometime in the same year, the Tau'ri discovered a reference to the nine chevron address minus the point of origin in the Atlantis database. The Tau'ri had a strong alliance with the Rebel Jaffa, after effectively being responsible for its creation, beginning with Teal'c's defection. Although the crew was eventually able to retake their ship, the Tau'ri have declared war on the Lucian Alliance, something they were seeking to avoid. Earths second spacecraft that made use of reverse engineered Goa'uld technologies was the X-303 Prometheus. As a result of that, Stargate Command and the Stargate Program were both reopened on a permanent basis so that they could continue to fight against the Goa'uld as well as any other future threats. The second time Jack gets his head grabbed by the ancient repository of knowledge he says that the symbol for Earth is the sound, "at." Arabic, Mandarin, English, Spanish, French, Russian, German and many others Press J to jump to the feed. Before their deaths, the Asgard gave the Tau'ri all of their knowledge and technology, despite strong reservations at the young stage of Tau'ri development, and self-destructed their home of Orilla; finally pronouncing the Tau'ri as the Fifth Race of the Great Alliance. Some alliances have been made in order to gain food to replenish their stocks and others have been made to fight the Wraith together (which usually end rather quickly). The reason that it is international is that it was felt that a project of such importance could not be the exclusive province of one nation, as well as the fact that according to American and international law, Antarctica is international territory and hence it would be technically illegal for the United States to operate any facilities without international participation or at least international knowledge. Language They will, however, often provide these cultures with humanitarian technologies, such as medical supplies. (SG1: "Company of Thieves"), In 2007, the Tau'ri were proclaimed the fifth member of the Alliance of Four Great Races by the Asgard, who left all their knowledge and history to the Tau'ri, thus placing on them the responsibility of being the first line of defense for preserving the hope of the future. The core of the planet then destabilized, destroying the Icarus Base and the planet itself. Because most of their forces were stuck in their own galaxy, the Ori turned to their Jaffa allies, who were eager to destroy Earth; SG-1 was able to foil their plot. This follows the race's naming system, Midgard being the Asgardian Gods' name for Earth. (SGU: "Human"), The Tau'ri would, almost a year later, acquire a relic of the Ancients known as the Ark of Truth. As a reward for their cooperation, China's People Liberation Army was given one of the advanced Daedalus-class battlecruisers, the Sun Tzu. In addition, Earth also commands several vessels of alien origin, consisting of: Atlantis, the Tau'ri base of operations in the Pegasus galaxy, The Atlantis Project, also called the Atlantis expedition, is Earth's international mission to the Ancient city of Atlantis in the Pegasus Galaxy. Upon their arrival, they settled on Earth, from which they created a vast empire spanning the entire galaxy and enduring for millions of years. (SG1: "Politics", "The Serpent's Lair", "The Tok'ra, Part 1", "The Tok'ra, Part 2", "The Fifth Race"), in the year 2000, SG-1 first encountered the Replicators, a small robotic insectoid race impervious to most energy weapons, yet vulnerable to projectile weapons. The Horizon warheads detonate over the surface of Asuras. (SG1: "Nemesis", "Redemption, Part 2", "Watergate", "Disclosure"), As a consequence of this, the eventual arrival of Anubis' fleet prompted President Henry Hayes to inform these 5 nations, as well as long-time ally Canada about Stargate Command's fleet engagement plans.

One of their most prominent alliances was with the Genii, a military dictatorship possessing technology that, while advanced compared to the natives of the Pegasus Galaxy, was nowhere near as advanced as that of the Tau'ri. The Tau'ri use their new Asgard beam weapons to destroy an Ori warship. These outposts were equipped with the latest technology available to the Tau'ri. After the Asgard ship Biliskner crashed into international waters, Russia was able to recover a Stargate that SG-1 had beamed aboard and used it to briefly establish their own Stargate Program based in Siberia, although this was eventually terminated and merged with the United States program running out of Cheyenne Mountain. Tau'ri weapons are capable of rivaling the Goa'uld Staff weapons and, interestingly enough, Tau'ri weapons were the only known weaponry to permanently damage the Replicators before the re-invention of the Replicator disruptor. However, unknown to most of Icarus personnel and those back on Earth, instead of emerging on Earth, they emerged on the Destiny, an automated exploration ship launched by the Ancients from Earth as part of an experiment to further their knowledge of the universe several million years ago. Many of the nations that are now aware of the existence of the Stargate still don't agree on many issues regarding interstellar and domestic policy. F-302s are stationed at several major off-world bases including Atlantis, and Alpha, Betas and Gamma Sites. The Asgard have donated several key technologies to the Tauri, such as Asgard transporter system, Asgard designed Hyperdrives for faster than light travel, defense shields and sensors for the Prometheus and the BC-304s. The United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who was "curious" about its potential, authorized experimentation to learn what it was capable of. Societal information Also with the original movie, they had different glyphs on the 2nd gate, which adds to the confusion of all this. The Tau'ri also command several outposts throughout the Milky Way and Pegasus galaxies. In addition, the Tau'ri also command three powerful Ancient outposts equipped with Ancient Drone weapons, Shield and many more in the Antarctic outpost and Atlantis or defensive energy weapon found on the Destiny. SG-1 however disobeyed orders and went through the gate to the co-ordinates Daniel found in an alternate reality. The Tau'ri, known simply as just Humans, are a humanoid race from the planet Earth, characterized by bipedalism and large, complex brains and are highly social and tend to live in complex social structures composed of many cooperating and competing groups, from families to political states. 10,000 years ago, a number of the Ancients returned to Earth after the end of their devastating war with the Wraith. However, SG-1 was captured, but was later freed by the efforts of Teal'c of Chulak, First Prime of Apophis, who permanently defected from the Goa'uld and eventually ended up joining the SGC and SG-1. Tau'ri Tollan society was destroyed, however, by Anubis when Narim and SG-1 destroyed the Tollan's super weapons. (SG1: "The Ties That Bind", "The Scourge"), The IOA seem to play an important role in the Icarus Project and later the Destiny expedition after the incident at Icarus Base. One without. It is wrong, it shouldn't be there, but its just that they use the same prop. In 1998, the Tau'ri made contact with rebel Goa'uld known as the Tok'ra, whose goal was to overthrow the System Lords. Some Tau'ri possess genetic markers (called the Ancient Technology Activation gene) unique to the Ancients that allow them to use Ancient technology, as a result of interbreeding with a group of Ancients that returned to Earth ten thousand years ago from their city of Atlantis when there was no hope of defeating the Wraith. It bugs me every time i see the Earth point of origin on a gate off world. After the System Lord Anubis became an increasing threat and his planned attack on Earth seemed to be coming in the immediate future, the United States and Russia informed the other three permanent members of the United Nations Security Council: the United Kingdom, France, and China. Although Jacob and Selmak both eventually died due to old age, the alliance between the Tau'ri and Tok'ra still stands strong thanks to Jacob's daughter, Sam now acting as the new liaison between the two races. The Tau'ri soon set up Icarus Base on P4X-351 to start research on the Icarus project, an attempt to dial the nine chevron address. However the discovery came at a heavy price as the Lucian Alliance attacked Icarus Base, prompting the Icarus base personnel to evacuate through the Stargate. The Asgard once described the Tau'ri as being well on their way to becoming the "Fifth Race", a reference to the Alliance of Four Great Races that both the Asgard and Ancients were part of, and had seen their great potential long ago. I understand they must have had few stargate props to put in the filming locations, so the symbol just slipped there. Those Jaffa factions who fought alongside the Tau'ri felt very indebted to Earth and wanted to establish a democratic system of their own.

ATA gene (some) Alive (SG1: "The Ark of Truth"), In early 2009, Atlantis came to defend Earth against a powerful Super-hive. Status Humans were initially seen as a weak species by the Ori, who viewed them only as a means to gain more power. SG teams have accidentally sparked planetary wars on industrial, World War II/Cold War-era worlds by informing their populations about the true nature of the Stargate, the most notable being Tegalus, where first contact caused a fundamentalist coup d'etat and full-scale nuclear warfare. Jack O'Neill speaking to the Asgard High Council through a hologram. In addition, the Asgard donated their entire database and latest technology to the people of Earth before they perished, and with Atlantis now on Earth and access to its database, the Tau'ri are now effectively the most advanced known race in at least two galaxies. (SGA: "Enemy at the Gate"), Days later,[1] Eli Wallace, a genius civilian, joined the Stargate Program. The Tau'ri later came into contact with the Asgard, who, at the time, believed that the Tau'ri were too young a race to ally with. They have caused the downfall of many other galactic powers, including the Goa'uld Empire, the Replicators, the Ori, the Asurans, and they are well on their way to ending the Wraith domination of the Pegasus Galaxy where even the Ancients had failed. My headcanon is that the At symbol is actually the symbol of Earth, and given Earth was the Ancient's home planet, it's essentially branding. Ra with attendants and Horus Guards in Ancient Egypt. The Tau'ri using the Dakara superweapon against the replicators. (SGA: "Rising", "Underground", "Coup D'etat"), In 2006, the Lucian Alliance, a highly organized group of drug dealing criminals that had stepped in to fill the power vacuum left by the Goa'uld, made an attempt to capture the Battle cruiser Odyssey, resulting in the death of its commander Colonel Paul Emerson. Really big and centered on screen.

The committee created to oversee the Atlantis Project has gone beyond its original purpose and has actively affected other areas of Earth's off-world affairs as the International Oversight Advisory, or IOA. It is still unknown what the major roles of IOA in the expedition are, however it could comparable to those of the Atlantis expedition. In the end, they did not build their own ships, but did receive a more advanced American-built Daedalus-class battlecruiser, the RFS Korolev. The greatest share of alien technologies that Earth uses for its spacecrafts and for defense is of Asgard origins. An uneasy truce was reached, however, when the Genii leadership changed, which the Tau'ri helped happen. The symbols you enter for a planet actually spell out its name. The Sangraal being constructed, which the Tau'ri ultimately use to destroy the Ascended Ori. All things dedicated to the 1994 Stargate movie and the MGM franchise: SG-1, Atlantis, Universe, Origins, video, RPG games and everything else. The impetus for the creation of the expedition was the discovery of the Ancient outpost in Antarctica. Many members of the Lucian Alliance, one of Earth's enemies, believe the Tau'ri to be a major threat to their organization, and that they have caused more grief to them than any other adversary, including the Ori. Eventually, however, Earth steadily grew into an increasing threat that the Ori had to either convert or destroy.

This gene, which occurs randomly among the population, has predisposed a large population of modern humans to use Ancient technology, thereby making the humans of Earth the descendants of the Ancients and the inheritors of their technology. One such piece of advanced technology was the Goa'uld Death Glider, which the Tauri utilized and reverse engineered several of its systems to develop the first space capable aircraft, the X-302 hyperspace fighter and its production variant, the F-302 fighter-interceptor. (SG1: "Frozen", "The Pegasus Project", SGA: "Rising", "Before I Sleep"), The Asurans view the Tau'ri with great envy and hatred due to the fact that they are from Earth, the former homeworld of the Ancients, their creators, as well as the fact that many are direct descendants of the Ancients and now inhabit Atlantis. It is composed of the representatives of several nations, but the leaders of the committee seem to be the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Russia, and China, however, numerous nations have sent people to Atlantis. It's possible there are only like5 different PoO for the whole Milky Way Network, each one representing a many possible things (when the gate was built, where, who was in charge at the time, etc). During the Ancients' habitation of the Pegasus galaxy, humans were able to develop and flourish on Earth for thousands of years. The heat of re-entry caused the ship to break up in the atmosphere. (SG1: "Frozen", "Lost City, Part 2", "Avalon, Part 1", "Avalon, Part 2"), In 9,177 BC, the Tau'ri were discovered by the Goa'uld Ra. That watchdog is generally accepted to be Richard Woolsey, the United States representative. Around 3,000 BC on Earth, a rebellion against the imposed Goa'uld slavery occurred, after which Ra fled from Earth and the Stargate was buried in Egypt. (SG1: "The Shroud", "The Ark of Truth"). Alliances In the year 2004, Earth discovered the address to the Lost City of the Ancients, known from their myths as Atlantis: a city that held numerous technologies that could give any who re-discovered it ultimate power in the Milky Way. However, only a few million years ago, a great plague swept the galaxy, decimating its population. (SG1: "Lost City, Part 2", SGA: "Rising"), After eight long years of fighting against the Goa'uld, the Tau'ri was eventually able to defeat the System Lords, along with the Replicators, aided by the Rebel Jaffa, the Tok'ra, and the Asgard, with the help of the Ancient Superweapon on Dakara. Thor, the Supreme Commander of the Asgard fleet. On these planets, various cultures of humans were able to develop independently of each other. Although initially refusing to provide Earth with offensive weapons technologies, the Asgard later design Asgard plasma beam weapons to be retrofitted onto Earth's BC-304s. Earth also operates a small, but highly and almost absurdly advanced, fleet of spaceships compared to other races in the known universe, consisting of: Earth also has several squadrons of F-302 fighter-interceptors (space-worthy 2-man fighters), but the exact number remains unknown. The Tok'ra have been instrumental in defeating both the Goa'uld and the Replicators, and also joined the fight against the Ori. The term used by the inhabitants of the Milky Way to refer to human beings from Earth. (SGU: "Air, Part 1", "Air, Part 2"). I thought each world had their own point of origin symbol. A few off-world bases have a number of military personnel for operation. Egyptian laborers lift the Stargate out of the ground in 1928. (SG1: "Disclosure", "Crusade"), Over the years, all attempts have been made to keep the existence of the Stargate secret, assuming there would be mass panic if the public found out. After the defeat of Anubis's fleet and the subsequent discovery of the Ancient outpost in Antarctica, an international committee was established to oversee it and the Atlantis expedition. It should be noted that Jonas has since returned to his native planet of Langara while Teal'c, Vala, Teyla and Ronon are all currently active members of their respective teams. Months later, the Tau'ri gained a great advantage over the Ori forces still present in the Milky Way in the form of a library of Asgard knowledge installed on the Odyssey. (SGA: "No Man's Land"). One with a moving ring. The Tau'ri are one species who resulted from this endeavor. Realizing the very real danger the Tau'ri now posed, Adria , the Ori's leader and also the daughter of SG-1 member, Vala Mal Doran mounted plans to launch a full-scale assault against Earth, but was thwarted when SG-1 learned of the Ark of Truth and activated it, thus removing their follower's belief in Origin. However, it was in another galaxy called Pegasus. By stumbling across the Pangarans, combined with their special relationship with the Tok'ra, the Tau'ri were also able to free the Jaffa from their mortal dependence on Goa'uld larvae by adapting the Tretonin for widespread use. The Tau'ri's first (successful) attempt of constructing an advanced spaceship of their own design resulted in the F-302 fighter-interceptor, an air and space superiority vehicle constructed in part using reversed engineered alien technologies procured through the Stargate Program. The Tau'ri have rapidly risen to prominence and have become a major superpower in both the Milky Way and Pegasus galaxies. Unfortunately, the alliance would come to an untimely and tragic end when the Asgard were unable find the flaw in their degrading genome, ultimately leading to their extinction. SGA: "McKay and Mrs. Miller", SGU: "Air, Part 1"), The Abydonians, the first group of humans encountered by the Tau'ri in 1996. The Ancients known as Morgan Le Fay subsequently engaged Adria in combat, and the two presumably destroyed each other, or locked themselves in an everlasting duel. Stargate Command sent an expedition through the Stargate to locate the city, using the Zero Point Module recovered from the Ancient outpost on Praclarush Taonas. He discovered that the nine chevron addresses were actually a code with Earth as the point of origin and the Tau'ri were able to unlock the ninth chevron. Various(193 United Nations member states) In addition, numerous aliens from planets in the Milky Way and Pegasus Galaxy have been allowed to join the main SGC and Atlantis teams, prime examples being Teal'c of Chulak, Jonas Quinn of Langara and Vala Mal Doran, three aliens who joined the SGC's main flagship team, SG-1 and Athosian Teyla Emmagan and Satedan Ronon Dex, two members of the Atlantis Expedition's flagship team, the First Atlantis Reconnaissance Team or AR-1 for short. Earth has several offworld teams, mostly under the control of Stargate Command, who are to open negotiations with other planets and procure advanced technology that could be used to defend Earth. ), it is as it represents Sol, which would be a point in space for the other planets, and therefore can be used to determine coordinates in the same way as other points in space are represented on our gate. From the onset, China has expressed its distaste at not informing the public about the Stargate's existence; however, this was largely a political posture taken in opposition to the United States out of displeasure that Washington never informed China about the existence of the alien threat; in reality, the Chinese have deferred to the United States' policy of secrecy, as they have seen that the revelation of the existence of an alien threat to Earth could create mass panic among the Chinese public. (SG1: "Origin"), In 2007, the Tau'ri managed to acquire a weapon capable of destroying the Ori, the Sangraal, and sent it to the Ancients' Home Galaxy in an attempt to destroy the energy beings, and prevent them from enslaving humanity. (SGA: "Progeny", "The Return, Part 1"). The potential effectiveness of these Forces in defending Earth against external attack is unknown, as SG teams using current military equipment have shown weapons such as FIM-92 Stinger missiles to be somewhat effective against Goa'uld vehicles. (SG1: "The Enemy Within"). I know we'd be sitting there all day dialling but it makes more sense if the constellations are the points in space between two areas. (SG1: "Unending"). However, the Lucian Alliance continues to be an ongoing threat to Earth, as evident by their attack on Icarus Base and their invasion of Destiny. Of course, in return for their silence, China expected to share in the technological rewards of the Stargate Command and Atlantis expedition programs. The Tau'ri and the Tok'ra eventually signed a treaty thanks to Sam Carter's father, Jacob Carter becoming a host to the Tok'ra symbiote, Selmak and they have been valuable allies ever since. After many missions, Senator Robert Kinsey attempted to shut down the Stargate Program because it was a global risk, ignoring the fact that Earth would be attacked by the Goa'uld as warned by Dr. Daniel Jackson. (SG1: "Reckoning, Part 2"). First, they released a plague on Earth, which was foiled when the ascended being known as Orlin returned to the lower planes to provide the Tau'ri with a cure (at great cost to himself). A small minority, including their leader Netan, are of the opinion that the Tau'ri are of no or little consequence however. (SGU: "Air, Part 1"), enacted measures to reseed the galaxy with life, The construction of the fleet of Earth-built space battleships, such as the. (SGU: "Air, Part 1", "Air, Part 2"). With their first attempts at removing the Tau'ri as a threat foiled, they determined that a different approach would be needed and turned SG-1's own Dr. Daniel Jackson into a Prior for that purpose. When they returned, some decided to live among the native population, passing on their Ancient Technology Activation gene as they interbred. The Hive ship was eventually destroyed, but Atlantis was forced to make a dangerous landing on Earth's surface. The first mission was headed by SG-1 and SG-2 who went to Chulak.

As a result, they are often treated with caution by other major races, and even one of their closest allies, the Free Jaffa Nation, has shown great mistrust towards the Tau'ri as many of their population believe that the Jaffa should remain independent and free from any non-Jaffa influence. The Russians currently operate their own SG team under Stargate Command's authority. All humans in the Milky Way galaxy originate from the Tau'ri, mostly brought to other planets by Goa'uld as hosts and slaves. (SG1: "Lost City, Part 2", "New Order, Part 1", SGA: "Rising"), The Destiny expedition, comprised mainly of members from the Icarus Project team, was an international research team attempting to dial the Stargates ninth chevron after a nine-symbol address (minus the point of origin) was found in the Atlantis database. This artifact would eventually lead to the final downfall of the Ori. Distinctions Drones destroying a group of Kull warriors in the Antarctic outpost. Anubis forced the Tollan to build him the weapons in return for their survival, however once the bombs were destroyed, Anubis became angry at the Tollans' acts of defiance and wiped out the Tollan. So it' s error due to production limits. However, many Jaffa believe that the Tau'ri merely accelerated the inevitable Jaffa uprising, a process that had started by the rebellion of the Sodan, continued by smaller rebellions such as the Battle of Tazek'sur on Chulak where several Jaffa, including Gerak's father, died for their eventual freedom. This was done in the hopes of pooling their combined military resources to defend Earth against Anubis' fleet. Stargate. Its core is composed of representatives of the Big Five: the United States of America, represented by Richard Woolsey, James Marrick and James Coolidge; the United Kingdom, represented by Russel Chapman; France, represented by Jean LaPierre; Russia, represented by Colonel Chekov, the Russian military liaison to Stargate Command (although it is unknown if he survived the Battle of P3Y-229); and China, represented by Dr. Shen Xiaoyi. Out of universe information (SG1: "New Order, Part 2"). However, in 2007, the Lucian Alliance set up a bounty on SG-1 because their drug dealing was being disrupted by Earth's elite Stargate team, causing Netan to become weak in the eyes of the Lucian Alliance; they then turned the strongest of bounty hunters against Netan to kill him and take his place of power in an attempt to set things right. This backfired on Netan as Anateo almost succeeded in taking the ship. Homeworld This has been shown by several alternate-universe experiences, as the reason of the survival of was due to Colonel Samantha Carter joining the military, and possibly Stargate Command remaining a secret.

Among the technology are defensive system, communication system, sensor system and several more systems developed by the Tau'ri. (SG1: "Point of No Return", "Lost City, Part 2", "Covenant", "Citizen Joe", "Ex Deus Machina",

The time of the Second World War (1939-1945) marked the first experiments with the Stargate. After the defeat of the Goa'uld, Daniel Jackson and Vala Mal Doran eventually contacted the technologically superior Ori and alerted them to the human presence in the Milky Way. The Asgard computer core, containing all the knowledge of the Asgard. SG-1 eventually crashed the visiting Asgard ship Biliskner, previously commanded by Thor, that had become infested with Replicators into the Pacific Ocean.

The SGC has been remarkably successful at this, even when Earth was under direct attack by Anubis, an assault which included the apparent destruction of the entire USS Nimitz Carrier Battle Group, and when a skyscraper disappeared in downtown Seattle with no apparent explosion. As such, the Asurans have attempted to destroy Atlantis numerous times, only for their efforts to fail. They eventually formed an alliance and fought against the System Lords. However, more nations have gradually come to take part in its use. The leader of the Alliance, Netan had sent a Second Anateo on what he had hoped would be a fool's errand, believing that the Tau'ri were too strong for the plan to succeed. The ambassadors of several major countries are informed about the Stargate Program. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. They extrapolate that each symbol on the gate corresponds to a sound in the Ancient's language. They had just two props for the gate. While it's implied that each planet has its own PoO, it was never directly stated that the glyphs had to be different for each gate. It should've just been 39 identical symbols and the PoO explained a bit better. I started rewatching a couple of weeks ago, and I noticed sometimes you can see the Tauri symbol on off-world stargates, in the background. (SG1: "Nemesis", "Reckoning, Part 2"). (SG1: "Shadow Play", "Icon", SGA: "Coup D'etat"), In the Pegasus Galaxy, where they have become known as the Atlanteans, Earth has made multiple relations with the less advanced humans there with the help of the Athosians, their closest allies in that galaxy. Ultimately, Earth came to pose the greatest threat the Ori had ever faced on the lower planes, in the form of devices that could negate the powers of their Priors and ships boasting weapons that could penetrate the shields of their warships in a handful of shots while at the same time resisting their ships' primary energy weapon for several minutes due to advanced shielding technology. The Ancients, one of the most advanced civilizations to ever live, were the original constructors of the Stargates and continue to affect the societies of the galaxy. The Tau'ri were a fairly advanced race even before the exploration of the Milky Way, capable of simple space travel and nuclear warfare.
