The '''Cylon homeworld''' is the planet which the [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylons]] established as their main base after rebelling against the [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)|Twelve Colonies]]. The Cylons presumably leave for this world after the armistice that ended the [[Cylon War]] ([[Miniseries]]). | |||
The Colonials estimate the general location of the Cylon homeworld, by using the [[Armistice Station]] as a reference. The station was apparently built at the [[Armistice Line]] which the Colonials agreed to never cross, and behind which the Cylons would settle ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]]). | |||
The escaping [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] and the Twelve Colonies are too far away from the Cylon homeworld for [[humanoid Cylon]]s or Raiders to resurrect. As a result, the Cylons built several [[Resurrection Ship]]s, which would serve as safety nets for Cylons located outside of downloading range during and after the attack. | |||

*When Ron D. Moore was questioned why the "Cylon POV episode", "[[Downloaded]]", took place on Cylon-occupied Caprica instead of the Cylon homeworld in an interview with [http://www.nowplayingmag.com/content/view/3206/2/ Now Playing Magazine] on February 23, 2006, he stated that the series will probably not show that planet any time in the forseeable future, explaining that: | |||
::"That episode ("Downloaded") will not have that, and we still don’t have any plans to do that...My instinct is kind of not to go there. I feel like I don’t have a great clear vision of it; at this point if we tried to do something there it would look very familiar and not as interesting as it is in your imagination." | |||
:Moore goes on to say that he felt it was more exciting when left to the imagination, because "It still has to be a place where bipedal creatures can walk around and do things": Presumably, it has to be able to support the humanoid Cylons, who are near-human enough that their home environment would be fairly similar to a human one, and not drastically exotic. | |||
