[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] As soon as the Destiny jumped out of FTL and dialled the desert planet, a 12 hour countdown started. When the countdown was up and the wormhole was disengaged it jumped back into FTL. There's not explanation (yet) why there is a 12 hour time limit. Since Rush said they're essentially running on auto pilot, my guess is that it was pre-programmed by the ancients for some automated survey system and to keep the ship on a schedule so it doesn't get stranded in normal space. Of course if they had access to the bridge or control room I'm certain there's an override to the clock and the autopilot but for now they can only access a limited area around the gate room so they're more or less at the mercy of the ship's programming. There was a ticking clock for the air too (though not quite so literal) in that they only had enough fresh air for a day (prior to gating out) before the CO2 levels became lethal. [/QB][/QUOTE]
