		All races that appear to be 'human' in Stargate: Atlantis, apart from the Atlantis team that travelled through the gate in the first episode, are not in fact human but descendants of the original Ancients, that travelled to and colonised the Pegasus Galaxy.
		The characters on Stargate Atlantis use both Ancient and human SGC technology, as well as technology adapted from the Goa'uld, acquired from the Wraith, and given by the Asgard.

	SoundtrackNet : Stargate: Atlantis Soundtrack
		This is appropriate given the submerged setting of "Atlantis", though little of the show deals with this.
		About half a minute into "The Rising", Goldsmith throws in the second half of the main theme in a series of descending notes in the low brass and is a great example of the changing chords in this score.
		The soundtrack to Atlantis' pilot episode, "Rising", which is also available separately on DVD or in the Season 1 box set, contains all the themes, but also some of the less in-your-face score by Goldsmith that helps flesh this album out as a soundtrack and not a highlights album.

	DVD Talk > Reviews > Stargate Atlantis - Rising
		Earlier seasons of Stargate SG-1 established that the fabled Lost City of the Ancients is a bastion of hope (in the form of super-advanced weaponry) for an Earth besieged by the conquering Goa'uld.
		The discovery of a set of stargate coordinates for a site in the distant Pegasus Galaxy, and the ability to power a one-way wormhole to that gate with Earth's lone sample of Ancient power cells, gives Stargate Command the rationale for setting up a new mission for a new team: Stargate Atlantis.
		Stargate Atlantis: Rising is presented in a very attractive anamorphic widescreen transfer, at its original 1.85:1 aspect ratio.

		Stargate Atlantis: Rising provides a strong introduction to an original series that retains the positive aspects of its predecessor but does not simply copy its success.
		Stargate Atlantis aired 20 episodes during its first season and developed a strong foundation that should last for many years.

	DVD Verdict Review - Stargate Atlantis: Rising (Pilot Episode)
		The resulting spin-off, Stargate Atlantis, took the concept of the series and set it in a new environment with new characters.
		The Atlantis pilot was created with the partial purpose of drawing in new viewers, and to further that cause, that introductory episode is now out on DVD.
		But Atlantis has run out of power, and our heroes have to head right back through the Stargate again to find a solution before their new home collapses in on itself.

		The shield withstood the assault of the enemy's weapons for many years, but finally the Ancients decided that the only way to preserve the last of their kind was to submerge the city.
		Stargate Atlantis was originally conceived to be set on Earth, after SG-1 had ended its run and spawned the new series with a feature film.

	Home Theater Forum - HTF Review: Stargate Atlantis - Rising
		This particular DVD features “Rising”, which is the feature-length pilot (two episodes) that sets the rest of the events in Stargate: Atlantis into motion.
		Still, longtime Stargate fans should find some familiar ground, for this new series is not without a villainous alien race of its own — in this case the enemies being “the Wraith”, a powerful and carnivorous species that threatens the team and their expedition.
		The soundtrack for Stargate: Atlantis Rising, which is offered in Dolby Digital 5.1, does a fair job of reproducing the source’s audio information, although I would not go so far as to say I was impressed.

		Stargate SG-1 stars Richard Dean Anderson and Michael Shanks make appearances in this series premiere, but the focus is on the new characters.
