The Stargate Program is a fictional special access program that plays a key role in the ''Stargate'' franchise: it surrounds the operations of the Stargate on Earth. The core of the Stargate Program is Stargate Command (SGC), based at the Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Station near Colorado Springs, Colorado. During the run of ''Stargate SG-1'', the NID is most critical of the Stargate Program, while the program is extended through the establishment of the Office of Homeworld Security/Homeworld Command and the International Oversight Advisory (IOA). The Atlantis Project as seen in ''Stargate Atlantis'' is part of the Stargate Program but works independently during season 1 of the show. Despite alien attacks such as in "Lost City" and "Ex Deus Machina", all attempts are made throughout the series to keep the existence of the Stargate Program secret, assuming there would be mass panic if the public found out. Several alternate-universe episodes address the public reaction to the revelation of the Stargate Program.〔"2010" (''Stargate SG-1'')〕〔"The Road Not Taken" (''Stargate SG-1'')〕 Nevertheless, some conspiracy theorists in the series assume extraterrestrial activity at the highest levels of the military.〔"Covenant" (''Stargate SG-1'')〕 A very few select civilians such as Pete Shanahan and Jeannie Miller are also aware of the existence of the Program. ==Earth and the Stargate== Following a backstory spanning millions of years, the modern history of Earth's Stargate Program begins when the Stargate is unearthed in Egypt in 1928. The device is eventually brought to the United States in 1939 to keep it out of Nazi hands and eventually installed in a facility in Creek Mountain, Colorado (Cheyenne Mountain in ''Stargate SG-1'').〔''Stargate''〕 In the events of the ''Stargate'' film, Dr. Daniel Jackson deciphers the workings of the Stargate as part of Project Giza run by Catherine Langford and under the oversight of General West, USAF. A team is sent through to the planet on the other side, where they encounter and defeat the malevolent Ra, freeing his slaves. Under the belief that there was only one possible destination through the Stargate, no further missions are planned through the Stargate and the program shut down. The ''Stargate SG-1'' premiere reveals the existence of another grave extraterrestrial threat to Earth, Apophis, and that there are in fact thousands of planets accessible through the Stargate. As a result, the United States establishes Stargate Command, under the command of General Hammond, USAF, inside Cheyenne Mountain and commissions nine teams (which increases to many more in the later seasons) to travel through the Gate to assess threats, open negotiations with other civilizations, and procure technology to defend Earth. The first SG mission to Apophis' homeworld, Chulak, sees the defection of Jaffa warrior Teal'c to Earth. In the early seasons of ''Stargate SG-1'', SG teams from Earth fights battles against Apophis and the Goa'uld System Lords. Along the way, they make offworld allies including the Tok'ra and the Asgard, support a growing rebellion amongst the Jaffa, and encounter a dangerous new threat from another galaxy, the mechanical Replicators. The Stargate Program also endures challenges from its own government; the ambitious Senator Robert Kinsey seeks to shut down and later control the SGC, and the activities of the unscrupulous N.I.D. threatens to destabilize Earth's offworld relations. Season eight of ''Stargate SG-1'' sees the final defeat of the System Lords and the Replicators, changing the political face of the galaxy. Dr. Daniel Jackson also discovers the address for the Ancients' Lost City of Atlantis in the Pegasus galaxy, and the international Atlantis Expedition is formed. In Pegasus Earth discovers more enemies, including the life-consuming Wraith and the nanite Asurans. A new enemy, the Ori, is introduced in the ninth season of ''SG-1''. Their story arc is concluded in ''Stargate: The Ark of Truth'' with the defeat of the last Ori, the Ascended being Adria, and the turning of her armies. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stargate Program」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
