Remember all the fuss about needing a ZPM during the Stargate series? Well this video will explain what a Zero Point Module is and how important they were during the series.
What is a Zero Point Module? A Zero Point Module, also known as a ZPM, is an immensely strong and very long-lived energy source of great importance throughout the Stargate series, capable of powering entire cities and intergalactic spacecraft. The ZPM was invented by the Ancients, and units have been found both on Earth and in the Pegasus galaxy.
The device itself serves as an enclosure for an artificially created pocket of subspace-time. Zero point energy is extracted from this pocket until it reaches maximum entropy, at which point the pocket collapses, leaving behind a useless shell.
Visually, a Zero Point Module resembles a large, translucent group of primarily coloured crystals approximately one foot in height with a roughly cylindrical shape. When activated, a ZPM emits a yellow glow from its center, with a small red circle at the top illuminating once the device has been fully engaged. This illumination ceases once the ZPM has been disconnected from whatever it was powering or has become fully depleted.
