Project Giza

Project Giza was a USA program, to learn everything on a device called the Stargate.

About
Around forty years after the 1945 Stargate experiments were given up, Catherine Langford requested number of USA administrations to build up a new research team and organisation to find out the purpose of the Stargate. All the material, including the gate and the Giza coverstone, were transfered from the Washington military armory to the Cheyenne Mountain Complex. The project was supervised by the US Air Force, leaded by Major General W.O. West. In 1982, the team began to build a dialing computer, using three supercomputers.

Langford hired different egyptologists, linguists and technicians, like Doctors Barbara Shore and Gary Meyers to decipher the meaning of the device and translate a strange cartouche. In 1993, Captain Samantha Carter, theoretical astrophysicist, joined the team and improved the dialing computer. Finding that the symbols from the cartouche were present on the Stargate, they enventually started to dial up the gate, but they failed after the lock of the sixth chevron. Catherine Langford tried then a new strategy, by attempting to recruit Doctor Daniel Jackson, a young misfit egyptologist rejected by his pairs, who has strange theories about Egyptian mythology (, SG1:, ).
