Carson😢The ending of Stargate Atlantis S03E17, "Sunday" hit me the hardest. Carson was a good man, a great doctor, and a true friend. He genuinely cared about everyone around him.
Rodney said: "The universe is a big place. Who knows? Maybe we'll... bump into each other again." - Yes, you did, Rodney. I'm so glad Carson returned later, near the end of Season 4.
The episode was written by Martin Gero.

First Mission: The Ghost Ship (Part 1) #Amalgaverse
An away team made up of Colonel Jack O'Neill, Doctor Daniel Jackson, Doctor Rodney McKay, and the android/AI Rommie has been dispatched to investigate a derelict freighter. After parking the puddle jumper in the ship's hangar, the team discovers that the bay doors are jammed open to space, forcing a call on how to proceed. They follow Jack's call.
The away team seals their helmets and exits into the airless bay. O’Neill cloaks their ride (just in case) and leads them to the interior airlock. Once it's sealed behind them, McKay triggers repressurization. Air floods in and fogs on contact, vapor boiling off the frozen walls. A breathable foothold at last.
The pressure hatch ahead unseals into a corridor running through the freighter’s underbelly, an industrial sub-level, narrow and dank, pipes sweating and venting coolant into the dark.
“I think I’ve seen this movie,”notes O’Neill to no one in particular. “It doesn’t end well for Samuel L. Jackson." Then, throwing a look to the others: “So where to?”
Rommie wants control before anything else. Waste no time in going straight to the bridge where they can immediately confirm that every breach is sealed and the entire ship secured before committing to anything deeper. The methodical call, it puts the freighter’s systems in their hands.
Daniel motions to his brand spanking new Starfleet-issued tricorder. A single faint contact flickers somewhere ahead - which should be impossible on a ship this dead. "Someone may be alive down here,”he says. "We have to investigate."
“SomeONE or someTHING?”counters McKay who is wholly focused on his own tricorder, and another reading. The whole ship scans dark but for one compartment, still bleeding the last of a dying reserve to hold a localized containment field. When that power fails, the field fails, and whatever’s inside likely with it. He wants a look before that happens. “And it’s on the way,”he sells it. “Just a tiny detour; a slight delay."
So where are you headed first?

Thor sends his disruptor satellite through the Stargate to the Alpha Site to aid SG-1 in destroying Replicator Fifth's ship. Teal'c puts the satellite into orbit using an F-302.

@BaronDestructo Let's try McKay's plan. I think they need to close the hangar bay door, and that way the hull should provide enough protection from the anomaly for Rommie and the Puddle Jumper.
