Spacegates are Stargates suspended in space, or in planetary orbit, particularly in the Pegasus galaxy.

Overview[]

They have around them three power nodes, which power them and act as stabilizers to keep them in orbit. Even if knocked a considerable distance, these nodes will quickly reposition the Spacegate. Spacegates were taken from uninhabited planets to form the McKay/Carter Intergalactic Gate Bridge.

Instead of using a connected DHD, dialing is accessed by a panel on a ship. Puddle Jumpers and Wraith Darts are the only known vessels equipped with such DHDs, and are among the few ships capable of actually going through this type of Stargate.
