Perhaps the only way to preserve your people now is to preserve their memory. If you die, they will be forgotten. Their deaths will go unrecorded, and the Wraith will have won. Or leave here with us now, and keep the spirit of your people alive inside you. Document their achievements, their struggles and triumphs. Tell their story to anyone who will listen. The choice is yours.

Tropes:

- Continuous Decompression: Played straight when Herick tries to vent all of the moon's atmosphere - then averted with McKay's chamber. When he sees the Ominous Crack, he just puts on his space helmet, holds onto the door handle for a few seconds while the air escapes, then opens the door and leaves.
- Driven to Suicide
- Ominous Crack
- Reentry Scare
- Teleporters and Transporters: The inhabitants of the Ark are stored in a Wraith beaming device.
