It always gets me that this whole episode, the Nox family they encountered were basically on a family camping trip...and they handled an intergalactic incident without bothering anybody else.

There's always the temptation to write characters like this as insufferably arrogant asses, so the more "practical" hero characters can show they tread the middle ground better. (Sort of how the Tolon came off) But they didn't do that with the Nox. They wrote them as completely understanding the middle way, but still rejecting it, in very "human" fashion of debate and experience. The Nox didn't have an ideology, they had personal principals, and they stuck to them.
Armin Shimmerman was just excellent for this role, particularly the way he delivers "Fear not."

This is one of the best scenes in the early show. Mind you, this is only 7 episodes in, the first couple dealt exclusively with the initial Goa'uld threat, so this is one of the FIRST exploration episodes in the show. It sets the entire thing up to be a civilization with primitive ways and technology. Sure, they can personally become invisible, but they still appeared primitive. This reveal, that ANYONE they come across could be an advanced technological race, even it they didn't appear it at face value. Just a magical reveal.

As soon as the ancients ascended they did nothing for the galaxy, only oma and she was never allowed to do much under threat of being banished forever... The ancients were even willing to let Anubis wipe out all life in the galaxy becasue they refused to get involved. The Asgard took it upon themselves to act but they nor any other species was under any obligation or had to... and they saw humans as nothing more than simple animals that needed protection, like one does for a stray dog. Again honor and morality are human inventions.
The Nox, they seemed so simple yet they just might be the most advanced race in all of stargate SG-1, if not definitely in the top 2.

Not really. Asgard and Ancients are far above them. LoL even Goa'uld learnt how to do "cloaking" and in the later seasons they managed to hide even motherships with it. The only feat that is actually unparaleled is their revival of Aphopis and even that could be done with Goa'uld technology(sarcophagus, which was derived from ancient healing device). Yes, they are certainly above most races, maybe even in TOP5, but certainly not the most advanced, nor the second.

@@KS-xk2so Can they though? I agree with Alterans(better said Ancients cause Ori were of the same origin, they split with Alterans cause of the religious views) but Nox? We have no idea if they abilities are natural or some form of tech advancement(artificial gene therapy or form of nanotechnology in their bodies or smt like that). But it is shame that they did not continue Nox storyline, cause all we can do now is guess. But let's just say you are right and they are the most advanced race currently in galaxy. Why they do not ascend? They are IDEAL race for it. They would be safe, their pacifism and non-interfence are EXACTLY the qualities ascended beings(like alterans) enforce. So why are they staying in the physical world? Even Asgard can open the gate without the "whoosh" as we saw doing Thor several times. Not to mention that we saw that Asgard has an ability to erase someone mind with just wave of their hands(as when they removed ancient knowledge from O'Neill's brain first time they encountered the that Repository). And technically, Tau'ri in the Stargate universe are also scavengers. Most of their tech is repurposed alien tech(asgard, Goa'uld or Ancient) so by this logic even Tau'ri should not be mentioned. Hell even Thor admitted, that some of the knowledge they posses were extracted from the Ancient Repository of Knowledge(and he also admitted that they are "studying it for as long as he remembers and they are still just scratchin the surface". Very few races achieved their technological level on their own(actually the only ones that come to my mind are Wraith, Tollans and Ancients(both Ori and Alterans)). (I am not counting SG:Universe cause i haven't watch it). But, in both Pegasus galaxy AND milky way, most space-travelling races were scavengers.

@@HanithSVK I'd assume the Nox haven't ascended because they don't want to. For an Alteran, a race so devoted to science, becoming the ultimate form of Energy would be a noble goal.

The best part is that I've used that line after imparting some wisdom to my friends and they've never questioned me about it (they don't watch Stargate)
Teal'c does the voice of Kratos in God of War. His voice is perfect for it.
Man, for all we know, they're just straight up teleporting back to their city when they disappear. Only hanging out on the planet surface when visitors are nearby.
You know I just realised that is Armin Shimmerman, the actor who plays Quark in DS9.
one of the best episodes.
Loved that episode and the Nox.
Just saw Richard Dean anderson imat comic con Holland, meeting a childhood hero, made me very happy
The best scene ever in Stargate.
It is amazing how so many people miss the point of this episode...or deliberately ignore the point while they take a piss on pacifism.
I really wanted an episode for when the tolans stayed with the nox untill they got their "new" home
one of the best sci fi show ever made.
Stargate was often underrated.
Never judge a book by its cover. Looks can be deceiving.

I never realized before that this is the Ferengi Quark (Armin Shimerman) and I saw both shows a thousand times. 😅
Quark moonlighting as a hippie techno-mage.
some things you gotta learn in the school of hard Nox
“Maybe one day you will learn that your way is not the only way“yeah there’s a lot of people who could be learning from those words today.
0:58 "Before you go, O'Neill... There is something we would have you see... It's the Rules of Acquisition, handed down from Grand Nagus to Grand Nagus over centuries. Now where's my latinum, Hu-man?"
This was one of my favorite episodes
at the end they were like: wait since when are you this wise o´neill...... and when he explained it: oh phew that makes sense
Ah, yes... season 1. With Daniel in a combat helmet. :D ^^ Even though the show would just keep getting better and better, I still have a soft spot for season 1. :) It's where everything began and I can enjoy it fully today knowing what it meant and what would come after.

Well, plus, the early installment weirdness is just hilarious xD
I hope the Nox will return in a future installment of the franchise. Not to mention it's about time the Furlings are finally introduced. (Yep, I know about episode 200, but that was a joke)
If only I was alive to see this show air on TV
When the last SG team disappear Through the morning mist, so clear They were seeking land, could they understand That they never would return? Out on the last crusade In quests after better days To conquer it all Viking funeral Live forever more.

SG-1 is proof that you can still have much to learn but still be wise.

Wisdom is a scam. Wise words will justify everything and it's opposite, not give any advice that is actually helpful for any given situation, but there is always some wise saying that applies in hindsight.
Nobody seems to take note of how the stargate was instantly dialed and silently activated by them.
We’ve sent your weapons back. Teal’c drop the staff!
The funny thing is: It is actually Quark the Ferengi is disguise ;)
This is kind of an interesting scene to juxtapose with the Asgard being not stupid enough to build weapons that can fight the replicators
“Maybe you will learn someday that your way is not the only way”. Maybe, except for the fact that SG-1’s way massively accelerated their advance in technology and destroyed some of the worst threats in the universe.

If we shadows have offended, Think but this and all is mended, That you have but slumber'd here While these visions did appear. And this weak and idle theme, No more yielding but a dream, Gentles, do not reprehend: If you pardon, we will mend.

Rule of Acquisition number 343 "Your way is not the only way"
Fear not... one day the Nox will acquire a good pair of shears.
This is what Snyder gets for expelling Buffy.
I wish they'd done more with the Nox, in the post system lord galaxy their pacifism would of been a good thing as it would of made them good mediators for disputes (because they'd wouldn't of wanted anything out of it) also the Ashen would of made for interesting recurring antagonists along side the Lucien Alliance.

The idea is cool. I suspect the first thing the Ashen would do is strike a deal with the Lucians. They would just hand over some of their tech to the Lucian Alliance and let them and the Tau'ri/Jaffa go at one another. And in exchange the Lucians would leave any conquered Aschen worlds alone. While they all fight no doubt countless worlds would end up in the crossfire and the Aschen could swoop in as their saviours. Heal the sick, defend them from staged Lucian attacks, rebuild their cities. Then they introduce their sterility vaccine as per usual to slowly conquer them. They could have dozends of Worlds subservient to them and only fight the Tau'ri/Jaffa once the Ashen have the upper hand. That could have been a great multi season arc.

@@pchowardltd2437 It's more likely that they used a spaceship and got rid of their stargate in space.
The biggest cliffhanger in Sci-Fi history.
Armin Shimmerman is almost unrecognisable without his Quark makeup.
