SCI FI PI

The third series in the remarkably successful Stargate franchise, Stargate Universe, will begin shooting February 4 for a Northern hemisphere summer 2009 premiere on the US SCI FI Channel. With Stargate Atlantis finishing strongly and the Stargate : SG1 movies selling spectacularly, the groundswell support for Universe is strong among the fans. There's also quite the 'what will the come up with next? quotient to the fan speculation for Universe as the bare detials eeked out by Stargate uber-honcho, Brad Wright, reveal little more than a human crew stuck on an ancient vessel far far far far far far away from Earth.

Whilst these pics may not answer immediate questions about Universe, they will serve to raise the excitement levels of Gaters everywhere, and cement the fact that yes, it is all actually happening.




Yep. It's a door. Cool.



Ancient console. Looking rather Ancient-y.



Ship interior corridor leading up to the famous door. A touch of Giger, don't you think?



The slightly organic feel continues on what could very well be the bridge.
