'''''Daru Mozu''''', also known as | '''''Daru Mozu''''', also known as '''Refinery 322'''<ref>[[:md:Image:Refinery 322.jpg|Nameplate on the ''Daru Mozu'''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. | ||
After the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]] it is found by [[Sharon Valerii|Boomer]]'s recon Raptor and brought to Roslin's amassing civilian fleet ([[Miniseries]]). | |||
The ''Daru Mozu'' is used to process the immense reserves of tylium mined from an asteroid [[Battle for the Tylium Asteroid|liberated]] from a [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] base ([[The Hand of God (RDM)|The Hand of God]]). | |||
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 ship is damaged in a collision with the ''[[Striker]]'' under the incompetent oversight of recently promoted Captain [[George Birch]], ''Galactica'''s [[CAG]] in [[Lee Adama]]'s absence ([[Home, Part I]]). | |||
A suicide bomber who is part of a [[Demand Peace|peace movement]] within the Fleet damages the forward section of the ''Daru Mozu'', killing several of its crew ([[Epiphanies]]). It is also be among the ships taking part in the settlement of [[New Caprica]] ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]) and later escapes during the [[Battle of New Caprica]] ([[Exodus, Part II]]). | |||
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]]). | |||
It would later be present in the fleet during the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]] next to ''Astral Queen'', the [[Space Park]] and a ship resembling ''[[Scylla]]''. | |||
==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. | ||
* In "[[Home, Part I]]" the ship is referred to as "[[refueling tanker]]", but the configuration of the ship is identical to ''Daru Mozu''. | |||
