I don't believe the "If Earth could have sent help, they would have" argument. The only way to open a gate connection from SGC to the Pegasus galaxy was with a ZPM, and there are no more on Earth. They have no way to send help.

So they talk of taking a ZPM, but they don't talk of taking the one from The Brotherhood? That should have been the first suggestion.
The best part of the episode was the disposition on the inadequacies of Dr. Weir.
It also has a remarkably touching conclusion.
