A fortuitous discovery exposing the clues of StarGate - A Stargate is a bridge portal device that allows practical, rapid travel between two distant locations, within the unknown universe, which indicates the new and only possibility for mankind. However, the codes to dial specific Stargates are yet to be addressed. The secret of StarGate for decades, hidden on every planet. The elements of every planet contain a significant revelation of the codes of StarGate.
