Domia is a habitable planet located in an uncharted binary star system that is briefly chosen by the Council of the Twelve to be the new home for the human race ((Comics: Hades Hath No Fury)).[1] Its name, given by Colonial navigators, means "Home" in the Kobolian language ((Comics: No Place Like Home)).[2]
Overview
editDomia is one of two habitable planets in its system, with possible tylium despoits. It has a tropical climate, created by its two suns, which results in a dense, lush jungle covering most of its surface.[3] The planet is notable for its mysterious, ancient rock formations, which are later discovered to be the source of the hostile unnamed Domia creatures ((Comics: No Place Like Home)).[4]
Colonization
editAgainst the strong objections of Commander Adama, the Council of the Twelve votes to end their search for Earth and colonize Domia ((Comics: No Place Like Home)).[5] A landing party led by Apollo establishes a temporary settlement, including military barracks and civilian housing ((Comics: Hades Hath No Fury)).[6]
Shortly after the Council arrives for a dedication ceremony, the settlement is attacked by the non-corporeal Domia creatures, who emerge from the nearby rock formations. The creatures prove impervious to laser fire. The attack is only halted when Sire Obob, acting on a theory from Starbuck, destroys the rock formations with a shuttle's weapons. The resulting explosion devastates the settlement and forces the Colonials to abandon the planet ((Comics: Fire in the Sky)).[7]
