Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which character does Rainbow Sun Francks play?

Answer: Aiden Ford

Ford is the lieutenant, Sheppard (Joe Flanigan) is the ranking military officer, Teyla (Rachel Luttrell) is the resident alien and Weir (Torri Higginson) is the civilian leader of the expedition. Also on the main cast list is Rodney McKay (David Hewlett) and Carson Beckett (Paul McGillion).

2. Which galaxy is Atlantis in?

Answer: pegasus

The Stargate can only dial another galaxy if they have a ZPM (zero point module), so unless they can find one, the Atlantis team will be stuck in Pegasus forever.

3. What is the name of the alien race who are the main bad guys in the show?

Answer: Wraith

The Goa'uld are obviously the aliens from 'SG-1', the Ancients are good guys who originally lived in Atlantis, the Genii are bad guys, but not as much as the Wraith, since they want technology, not to suck the life out of people.

4. What are Teyla's people called?

Answer: Athosians

The Athosians lived in Atlantis for a while, before the mainland of the planet was discovered, and they - with the exception of Teyla - relocated there.

5. What did Sheppard name the gate-travelling ships they found?

Answer: puddle jumpers

Ford wanted to call them gate-ships in the first episode. Also, in "SG-1"'s season 8 finale, McKay wanted to call them gate-ships.

6. Which other actress has played Dr Weir?

Answer: Jessica Steen

Jessice Steen played Weir in 'SG-1's 'Lost City'. In my opinion, Torri Higginson makes a much better Dr. Weir than Jessica Steen did, no offense to Ms. Steen. The other three actresses were all in various episodes of season 7.

7. What is the premiere of "Atlantis" called?

Answer: Rising

"Rising" is a two-parter which has guest appearances by Richard Dean Anderson and Michael Shanks of "Stargate SG-1" fame.

8. Who played Cowen, the leader of the Genii?

Answer: Colm Meaney

Ari Cohen played Tyrus in "Underground", Robert Davi played Commander Kolya in "The Eye" and Garwin Sanford played Dr Weir's partner Simon in "Home" and "Rising". Colm Meaney is better known for playing Chief O'Brien in "Star Trek: The Next Generation" and "Deep Space Nine".

9. What is the name of the 'clip show' in season one?

Answer: Letters from Pegasus

In "Home", the Atlantis team think they've found a gate that will take them back to Earth, but it doesn't. In "The Gift", Teyla finds she has powers that make her able to sense the Wraith and in "Sanctuary" they find a world ruled over by an Ancient.

In "Letters from Pegasus", they are able to sent a few seconds of transmission through the gate to Earth, enabling them to send letters home.

10. What nationality is Dr Zelenka?

Answer: Czech

Dr Zelenka is played by David Nykl. The Atlantis expedition is made up of people from many different cultures on Earth, with Zelenka from the Czech Republic, Dr Beckett from the Scotland, McKay from Canada etc.
