- According to an interview with executive producer David Eick, this episode is not quite a standalone, not quite an arc episode: it sets up/leads into the mid-season finale in episode 10.
- This is similar to how "Colonial Day" led up to "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I" in Season 1, "Downloaded" led up to "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part I", and (to an extent) "Flight of the Phoenix" introduced elements for "Pegasus".
- According to Bradley Thompson in an interview with the Chicago Tribune website, episode 9 "The Passage" is written by Galactica newcomer Jane Espenson. According to the interview:
- "Espenson’s episode arose when the show brought in Dr. Kevin Grazier, a scientist from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, who talked about how one would navigate through space; how one would figure out how to get from one point in the universe to, for example, Earth. Grazier's talk prompted the story at the heart of Espenson's episode."
- According to Ron Moore's blog (see "Official Statements", below), this episode "deals with a harrowing voyage of the rag-tag fleet and focuses on Kat."

Noteworthy Dialogue
Official Statements
In Ron Moore's blog on July 27th, 2006:
- "We were pretty excited to have Jane too. I actually took Jane's first pitch way back in my early days at Star Trek and I had the pleasure of buying what turned out to be her first sale. I hadn't seen her since, but I'd followed her career from afar and was very proud to see her do so well. Turns out that Jane was a huge fan of Galactica and really wanted to do a script for us, so we jumped on the chance. I think we're all hoping that we could get her on staff at some point in the future, but we'll have to wait and see how everything shakes out for Season Four -- and whether she's even available, she's very much in demand these days. Her episode this year is "The Passage" (originally Ep 9) and deals with a harrowing voyage of the rag-tag fleet and focuses on Kat."
