From Syfy:
With the situation onboard the Destiny dire, General O’Neill and Home World Command orders Col.

While using the communication stones, Camile Wray is approached by I.O.A. representative Dale Strom who suggests that she steer opinion on the ship in favor of the plan.
Eli and Chloe are allowed to use the communication stones to visit Earth and their loved ones for what may be the last time. Their homecoming is not what they expected and the two try to drink away their worries at a club (featuring Janelle Monáe), but are unable to ignore the looming fate of the Destiny that they have left behind.

"General O’Neill and Home World Command" ...
Excuse me? I thought it was called Homeworld Security last time it was mentioned? Home World Command sounds like a mixture of the SGC and Homeworld Security. Did they dismantle the SGC under Cheyenne Mountain?
@darkthunder
Probably a typo when the episode synopsis was being written. I wouldn't worry about it.
I don't like Janelle Monáe. She reminds me of a Bond villian from one of the older Bond movies.
They dismantled the Stargate Command set to replace it with the SGU set. So they probably had to come up with a new command.
And technically, assuming Atlantis is still on earth, incoming wormholes would probably default to the Atlantis gate, essentially making it Stargate command by default anyways.
I thought I heard a rumor one time that they were planning to shut down the real Cheyenne Mountain anyways? I don't know if its true or not...but if it is, then I guess that would also make sense as to why they moved Stargate Command somewhere else.
@Billz
Lemme guess. May Day from a A View to a Kill.
I see that you've added the schedule for Canada and Australia, but haven't posted the news that SGU will begin airing in Latin America on November 25th with the first two-hour episode.
If I were watching the Sneak Peak without knowing anything about the show, I'd never guess it was a sci-fi series.
But then, maybe that's the point?
Stargate:Clubbing! Now that's the kind of science fiction that really makes you think!
It actualy makes me sad that the only thing I am looking forward to here, is Jack's appearance. I just miss good old SG-1 SGA episodes.... :(
Likewise, Gaia.
If you were a civilian stranded on a spaceship and were given a chance to visit Earth for a while would you just sit around at Stargate command or make your time worthwhile and have some fun?
