Did the Stargate program ever go public?

I'm curious to know, has the Stargate program ever been made available to the public? If so, when did this happen and what were the main reasons behind the decision? If not, are there any plans in the future to make the program more accessible to the general public, and if so, what are the potential benefits and challenges that could arise from such a move? I'm eager to hear your thoughts on this matter.
