Taken by Propworx staff directly from The Bridge Studios, where MGM’s Stargate series were produced.
Light-up wall sconce used by Michael Shanks and David Hewlett as “Daniel Jackson” and “Rodney McKay,” respectively, in the Stargate Atlantis Season Five episode, “First Contact”. Daniel and Rodney tapped this and other lights in various sequences until the two determined how to use them to enter Janus’s secret laboratory.
