This is a chronological list of battles in ''[[Galactica 1980]]''. Exact dates are noted in Earth time and are based off the Fleet's arrival in the year 1980 [[w:Common Era|CE]].  
This is a chronological list of battles in ''[[Galactica 1980]]''. Exact dates are noted in Earth time and are based off the Fleet's arrival in the year 1980 [[w:Common Era|CE]].  


This timeline follows the implication given in ''1980'' that Colonial time units and Earth time units are exact, interchangeable analogues; e.g., 1980 CE is the year 7378 on the Colonial calendar. See [[Timeline (1980)]] for additional details.

| [[Battle at Galaxy's Edge]] || After July 20, 1969—1970 CE / Between Mid-Month 7 of 7367—7368<ref>In order to account for the interception of the [[w:Apollo 11|Apollo 11]] transmission, which is first sent on July 20, 1969, this battle would have to occur 19 years into Galactican Fleet's voyage. This assumption is absurd, however, as this would mean that the character moments in "The Hand of God" would have to be discounted. Ergo, this is a massive continuity error—and, to rectify this, the character drama between [[Starbuck (1980)|Starbuck]] and [[Cassiopeia]], and {{TOS|Apollo}} and [[Sheba]], would have to be ignored. Also, given that Starbuck is later abandoned on [[Planet Starbuck]] in "[[The Return of Starbuck]]," which transpires roughly 10 years before reaching Earth, it would have had to occur between late 1969 to 1970 CE. As radio waves travel [[w:Electromagnetic_radiation#Speed_of_propagation|at the speed of light in space]], ''Galactica'' would have to be very close to Earth—well under or around one-light year away. Also, some form of amplification of the radio signal may have occurred in order for the transmission to be intercepted by ''[[Galactica (1980)|Galactica]]'' during that time.</ref><ref name="months">The Colonials have no known names for denoting unique months or days of the week, hence its absence here.</ref> || "[[The Hand of God (TOS)|The Hand of God]]"
