- ↑ Based on the age of Dirk Benedict during the filming of the Original Series. Starbuck is revealed to be from Caprica, as well as Chameleon being his father in "The Man with Nine Lives".
- ↑ Jamie Hamilton makes a slight error when she tells the Galacticans that "20 years later, in 1939, World War II broke out" in "Galactica Discovers Earth, Part I". However, she was reciting this from memory, so it's an understandable error.
- ↑ As confirmed by Jamie Hamilton in her conversation to the Galacticans in Zee's chamber (1980: "Galactica Discovers Earth, Part II").
- ↑ This calculation is based on Noah Hathaway's age during the filming of the Original Series. This would make Boxey seven years old in "Saga of a Star World" and 37 years of age in "Galactica Discovers Earth, Part I"—which happened to be the age of Kent McCord when he played the role.
- ↑ Described in "Galactica Discovers Earth, Part II".
- ↑ 6.0 6.1 Depicted in "Galactica Discovers Earth, Part II" and "Galactica Discovers Earth, Part III".
- ↑ Project Blue Book is mentioned in a disclaimer at the end of every Galactica 1980 episode. Colonel Sydell's new organization within the US Air Force in the series has a similar mandate, and the disclaimer was apparently put in place to assure viewers that Sydell's organization was fictitious, and not to be confused with the real project that had concluded years before.
