The coordinates for Earth are implanted in the minds of [[Apollo (TOS)|Apollo]], [[Sheba]], and [[Starbuck (TOS)|Starbuck]] during their encounter with the [[Beings of Light]], and is recalled during their conversation with Commander Adama about what transpired with Count [[Iblis]] on the [[red planet]]. "Earth quadrant alpha, 19 million sectars by Epsilon vector 22 on a circular reckoning course of 000.9, in a star system with nine planets and one sun." {{OS|War of the Gods, Part II}}. | |||

They discover humans who have no direct connection to the Twelve Colonies, in the form of [[Terra]] {{OS|The Long Patrol|Greetings From Earth|Experiment in Terra}}.Transmissions on an obsolete [[gamma frequency]] believed to be from Earth—the [[w:Project Apollo|Apollo Moon Landing]]—are intercepted and recorded by {{TOS|Apollo}} in the [[celestial chamber]]. Further analysis of the recording proved impossible as the only copy of the transmission is destroyed in an attack on a Cylon [[basestar (TOS)|basestar]] {{OS|The Hand of God}}. | ||
