Two upkeep triggers, which one goes first?

I have Gate to the AEther in play, and my opponent has Twilight Prophet in play. On my opponent's upkeep, which card triggers first?

Both cards trigger simultaneously. When they do, the active player (your opponent) puts their triggers on the stack first ( Twilight Prophet ), then each other player puts any triggers they control on the stack in turn order ( Gate to the AEther ). This means your Gate trigger will resolve before your opponent's Prophet trigger.
"603.3a A triggered ability is controlled by the player who controlled its source at the time it triggered, unless it’s a delayed triggered ability. To determine the controller of a delayed triggered ability, see rules 603.7d–f."
