If I understood this correctly, they're apparently about to get stranded on a ship that was built by the Ancients and is pre-programmed to "seed" Stargates automatically. Practically kind of a "scout" ship that built (and apparently still builds) the gate-network and prepares the way for people to follow. Just, nobody's following anymore since the Ancient are extinct/ascented/whatever.
Apparently you can reach that ship via a ninth chevron, no matter where it is, but don't hold me to that. I'm not completely clear on that.
