campylobactertraycer_ has posted an awesome entry at fandom_grammar titled "What is the Difference Between Alternate Reality and Alternate Universe?"
Here's my Stargate-centric visual guide based on traycer_'s definitions, using screen grabs/production stills from the episodes/movies. I probably am missing some eps, namely because I haven't seen all of Seasons 3 thru 8 yet, so feel free to point me in the direction of any relevant episodes & screen grabs that you think should be included.
Time Travel (usually travel to the past):
A solar flare intersecting a wormhole sends SG-1 back 30 years (2x21 "1969")
Alternate Timeline (what happens when you time-travel and change something):
Daniel, Sam & Teal'c in a dystopian future (4x16 "2010")
Dork, Nerd & Loser (8x19 "Moebius") [wallpaper by Del]
Spending 50 years in a time dilation bubble (10x20 "Unending")
Ba'al makes Qetesh his Queen for 50 years in "Stargate Continuum"
Alternate Reality (parallel universe):
Teal'c sports a battle pony in 1x02 "There But for the Grace of God"
Maj. Carter watches Dr. Carter say goodbye to Jack through the Quantum Mirror (3x06 "Point of View")
Alternate Universe (take your favorite characters and dump them into another genre):
Teal'c, PI (10x06 "200")
Alternate Universe (crossover to an established fandom):
Wizard of Oz/SG-1 crossover (10x06 "200")
