'''Aurora''' is a past romantic interest of [[Starbuck (TOS)|Starbuck]]'s. Starbuck assumes that Aurora was killed on [[Caprica (TOS)|Caprica]] during the [[Battle of Cimtar|Cylon Attack]]. Much to his surprise however, Aurora has been working on the electronics ship, ''[[Celestra]]'', and has been listed in the Fleet's Computers as a shuttle pilot for [[Kronus|Commander Kronus]].  When he attempts to reacquaint himself with her, she blows him off, correctly stating that if he had cared enough, he could have found her via the Fleet's Computers.


'''Aurora''' is a shuttle pilot aboard ''{{TOS|Celestra}}'' following the [[Battle of Cimtar]].
During the award ceremonies, Aurora gathers navigational information from ''[[Galactica (TOS)|Galactica]]'' on a nearby planet located somewhere in Beta Sector so that she and her fellow mutineers, lead by her lover [[Damon]], may settle there away from [[the Fleet (TOS)|the Fleet]]. The impetus for this mutiny lie in the oppressive conditions imposed by ''Celestra's'' XO, [[Charka]].


== Biography ==
When Starbuck and [[Apollo (TOS)|Apollo]] just happen to thwart this mutiny, Kronus elects to take her and her compatriots to the ''Galactica'' to personally oversee the dispensation of consequences. En route, however, the mutineers claim that they mutinied against him because of the oppressive conditions imposed upon them by Charka; they assumed he did so by Kronus' blessing.


While Aurora's early life is unknown, she formerly had relations with Lieutenant {{TOS|Starbuck}} who, later, assumes that she was killed on {{TOS|Caprica|Caprica}} during the [[Battle of Cimtar|Cylon Attack]]. Much to his surprise however, Aurora has been working on the electronics ship, ''[[Celestra (TOS)|Celestra]]'', and has been listed in the Fleet's Computers as a shuttle pilot for [[Kronus|Commander Kronus]].  When he attempts to reacquaint himself with her, she blows him off, correctly stating that if he had cared enough, he could have found her via the Fleet's Computers.
When the guidance feed from the ''Celestra'' is terminated purposely (thus proving Charka's involvement), leaving the shuttle out into space unguided, the mutineers barter a deal: in exchange for a fair trial, they would enhance the sensors of the shuttle so they would be sensitive enough to detect the ''Celestra's'' low power emissions.

During the endeavor, Damon has doubts as to whether or not Aurora would ever be satisfied with him. However, Starbuck convinces him that he is no obstacle between them, thus receiving her appreciation.

* {{alt|Starbuck|TOS-DE}} mistakes {{alt|Cassiopeia|TOS-DE}} for Aurora after awakening from [[decompression sickness]], much to Cassiopeia's execration ({{comics|apocalypse|1}}).
* In Greek mythology, [[Wikipedia:Aurora|Aurora]] was the goddess of the dawn and counterpart of [[Wikipedia:Eos|Eos]].
