'''''Daru Mozu''''', also known as '''Refinery 322'''<ref>[[:md:Image:Refinery 322.jpg|Nameplate on the ''Daru Mozu''&#39;s hull.]]</ref> and operating under Tauranian registry, is the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]]'s [[tylium]] refinery ship. Refinery ships process raw minerals and metals gathered by a mining ship. Unlike a [[mining ship]], a refinery vessel has large processing and storage facilities, and can serve as a fueling vessel. In the storage compartments small excavators and chutes are used to move the raw, granular tylium to long conveyor belts on the lower decks. There manual labor is involved in refining it to a liquid fuel, but the exact further process is unknown.

Following President Roslin's imprisonment and Colonel Tigh's subsequent declaration of martial law, the crew refuses to continue refining tylium in protest ([[Resistance (episode)|Resistance]]).

The ''Daru Mozu'' is the site of a short-lived, but large labor strike threatening to spill over to other vessels in the Fleet. The strike is later resolved when a union, originally based on [[New Caprica]], is reinstated to aid with worker needs ([[Dirty Hands]]).
 
The ship's unique radiation signature is being used by the Cylons to track the Fleet to the [[Ionian nebula]]. The signature is described as "a leak" and, after its discovery, used to lead the Cylons away from the rest of the Fleet ([[Crossroads, Part I]]).  


==Notes==
==Notes==
* The ''Daru Mozu'' isn't identified by name until "[[Epiphanies]]" and earlier episodes just call it "refinery ship", but dialogue - especially from the episode "[[Dirty Hands]]" - continually refers to it in the singular. Combined with visual evidence, this indicates that the same ship is meant.
* The ''[[Hitei Kan]]'' is another, identical, refinery ship in the Fleet. The episode "[[Dirty Hands]]" strongly implies that the ''Hitei Kan'' is the only existing refinery ship and thus that the ''Daru Mozu'' has been destroyed or abandoned. If the ship was destroyed, it likely occurs as a result of the ''[[Cloud Nine]]'' explosion in "[[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]" or even as late as "[[The Passage]]", having not survived transit through the [[passage (star cluster)|star cluster]]. If abandoned, it must somehow occur between the jump to [[New Caprica]] and the [[Second Exodus]] ("Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II", "[[Exodus, Part II]]").
* In "[[Home, Part I]]" the ship is referred to as "[[refueling tanker]]", but the configuration of the ship is identical to ''Daru Mozu''.
* In "[[Home, Part I]]" a refinery ship is referred to as "[[refueling tanker]]", but the configuration of the ship is identical to ''Daru Mozu'' and ''Hitei Kan''.
* In "[[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]", the ship is noted on the [[:Image:Tally chalkboard.jpg|master tally board]] on ''Galactica'', but absent from the [[:Image:Colonial One voting tracker.jpg|whiteboard voting tracker]] on ''Colonial One''.

Additional Information

Daru Mozu, also known as Refinery 322[1] is a tylium refinery ship in the Fleet.

A suicide bomber who is part of a peace movement within the Fleet damages the forward section of the Daru Mozu, killing several of its crew (Epiphanies). It survives up until the presidential election that Gaius Baltar wins, and is presumably somehow lost to the Colonials between that point and the labor strike in the Fleet ("Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II", "Dirty Hands").
