What if the gates are "anchored" in place?  Remember the episode in the
first or second season where the exploration ship got lost?  Maybe if
the  gates moved, it would make navigation more difficult.  Maybe that
distant gate was close to the planet when built, but the planet has
continued to move.

Another thought...What if the gate was built out there on purpoise. 
Someone unannounced,or not allowed came through, they wouldn,t see
anything.  So they could keep the great machine secrit.
