Crew Quarters[edit]

There are several different types of crew quarters located on Galactica. The two primary types are officer's quarters and duty lockers. In addition there are also "visitor's quarters" located on Galactica. Billy Keikeya is trying to find these while lost during the Miniseries.

Heads[edit]

There are several restroom facilities on Galactica. Some are used as general purpose bathrooms with just sinks and toilets (Six Degrees of Separation) while others appear to be meant as crew lavatory facilities. These meant for crew appear to have showers and multi-basin sink facilities (Miniseries, "Scattered"). Every public head seen thus far appears to be unisex.

Rec Room[edit]

A general-purpose room where officers can gather to socialize, relax, participate in games. The room has several tables and chairs. There are often triad games played here and in the Miniseries it's the scene of a triad game that turns into a fistfight between Kara Thrace and Saul Tigh.

Wardroom[edit]

A formal meeting room, this room has tables usually arranged in a U shape surrounding a podium placed at the front of the room. More formally decorated than most of the other rooms on Galactica, it contains the flags of the Twelve Colonies and is carpeted with a plush, blue carpet. It is the scene of the first "heart-to-heart chat" between William Adama and his son Lee and the first meeting between Laura Roslin and Saul Tigh (Miniseries).

Weight Room[edit]

Galactica has a fairly standard weight room to maintain the crew's physical fitness.

In "The Hand of God", Kara Thrace spends time in the weight room rehabilitating her broken knee on a leg press machine. Commander Adama uses this machine to show to Thrace that her knee is not yet fully healed and that she is not ready for the upcoming combat operation. Leg strength is particularly important for Viper pilots; acceleration can dramatically magnify the force needed to press the pedals.

In "Scar", Starbuck pushes herself lifting weights to vent her frustration about Scar and Kat, while Helo spots her.
