Untitled Stargate/Sailor Moon Timeline

(This might look somewhat familiar if you post on spacebattles too )
Ok, here's what I have so far. I'd kind of like to write some stories in this setting and possibly even start a round robin or something of that nature. Here's my timeline so far:

Sailor Moon/Stargate Fusion Timeline
~10000 BC: Last Alterans arrive on Earth from the Pegasus galaxy. As they slowly die off or achieve Ascension they notice that some of the locals are making use of an energy similar to, but distinct from, the powers of the Ascended. Most of the last living Alterans on the planet, practicing a policy of non-interference, make sure that their few remaining installations on the planet are stealthed against all possible detection by this energy before they die out. A small minority wish to aid the locals. Though any large scale help or transfer of technology would be quickly noticed (and quashed) they manage to discreetly teach a number of locals empiricism, the scientific method and reading and writing so that they have the tools to uplift themselves.
~9800 BC: The last Alterans have died or Ascended. Humanity's ability to use magic has grown by leaps and bounds thanks the empirical understanding of its nature that's being built up. The first pieces of Magitech (devices of mundane construction that make use of magical principles to operate) are being built. Magitech has three main impacts: it allows anyone to receive many of the benefits of magic regardless of their aptitude for casting, it greatly enhances the abilities of magic users and eventually, after much research, is able to perform feats that no human magic user could.
~9500 BC: The first Magitech spacecraft is launched. Soon a rush of colonization expands out into the solar system and artificial habitats are constructed on planets, moons, asteroids and as free floating space stations throughout the system.
~9300 BC: Independence movements form on several colonies but the central government on Earth, using limited concessions as a carrot and military force as a stick, is able to maintain it's grasp on the colonies.
~9100 BC: The situation finally boils over into a multiple sided civil war when The Colonial Governess of The Moon declares herself Queen of the Moon and calls the Earth King's bluff. The other colonies soon follow suit.
~9050 BC: With the creation of a Planetary Mana Tap(PMT) The Moon Kingdom not only secures it's independence from Earth, it gains the power to begin conquering the other colonies.
~9000 BC: The civil war is now over. The Moon Kingdom is now the uncontested ruler of the Solar System. Earth alone remains independent only because it was deemed too populous to conquer with only one PMT at their disposal and by the time the Moon Kingdom had subdued the other colonies and built the Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter PMTs* Earth had reverse engineered the technology and built their one of their own. Thus the Earth Kingdom was reduced to Earth itself and Silver Millennium was born from all it's former colonies.
*the PMTs for Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto wouldn't be built until years later
~8000 BC: Prince Endymion falls in love with Princess Serenity and begins to cheat on his fiancee, Beryl, with her. When Beryl finds out about this, not being the most mentally stable person to begin with, she cracks and summons Metallia. More or less caught with its pants down the Silver Millennium puts up no significant resistance as a huge percentage of its citizenry is converted into Youma which proceed to chow down on the remainder until Metallia sucks the magic out of the life support enchantments on each planet, killing off the few survivors that remained. Queen Serenity uses the Silver Imperium crystal manages to banish Beryl, Metallia and their minions to a pocket dimension (The Dark Kingdom). Knowing that that won't hold them forever and wanting to preserve something of her kingdom Queen Serenity sends the souls of her Senshi forward in time and hides the remains of her kingdom under powerful enchantments. The Silver Imperium crystal shatters under the stress and the strain of using that much power kills her.
The only survivors are on Earth and lacking the numbers, infrastructure and knowledge needed to maintain their civilization they quickly descend into barbarism.
~7000 BC: Ra arrives on Earth. (From this point on Stargate time-line follows canon, so he leaves in 3000 BC then etc etc etc...)
1969 AD:On July 20th Apollo 11 begins to land on the Moon. At ~500 Meters above the surface the Univeristy of The Moon (does anyone have a better name for this?) shimmers into view below them. Their discovery is broadcast to the world.

I'll post more as I write it. I'd really like some input on where this should go and criticism of what I've done so far.
A few things I'm wondering about specifically:
How should the Soviets react? How quickly should the US begin to decipher Magitech/Training methods for Magic Users? Should the Stargate be activated at about the same time it was in Canon? What sort of power level should the world be at when the Stargate gets opened and what sort of political state would you expect the world to be in at that time? And just generally, where do you want to see this go?
