Yeah, that is a cool effect. I wonder what keeps the air from wooshing out of the gate room and into the vacuum on the other side, though. Probably better not to think too hard about that....
You have to physically push stuff through the event horizon. So if you had a big fan pushing air at the gate, sure. Otherwise not much air is going to go through.
Er, um. Air pressure pushes on the event horizon, just like it pushes on everything else, and with a considerable force, too.
Look what happened with the Russian water gate....
I believe they mentioned once that the gate acts as a baffle.
I could be mistaken

Maybe that "file from Afghanistan" actually meant "his court martial is under appeal."
The gate in space reminded me of the gate in the book
Broken Angels.
But I wanked the air/vacuum thing to some extent...whatever lockdown they were using that they had to have a code for (in lieu of the iris) would keep the air from being sucked out. Except of course when the ship was coming thru the gate. But whatever; I'm still trying to work out why the Ancients left through that gate to Earth and didn't put the same technology on the Earth gate.

That's cool.
