Editing Frodian galaxy

The '''Frodian galaxy''' is a location mentioned in a [[The Long Patrol/Deleted scenes|deleted scene]] from {{OS|The Long Patrol|prose=y}}, after the Cylons detect [[Starchaser]]'s transmission of [[Robber]]'s [[Aerian merchant code]].

=== Tie-in Material Information ===
* ''According to ''[[Encyclopedia Galactica]]'' (a non-canonical piece of merchandise published in 1979):''
: [[Earth (TOS)|Earth]] is the name given to the legendary thirteenth planet colonized by the humans fleeing their dying homeworld of [[Kobol (TOS)|Kobol]]. The [[Books of the Lords of Kobol|Books of the Elders]] at one point refer to it as the Third Planet of Nine, circling a yellow star at the edge of the Frodian Galaxy. It seems most unlikely that a group of the Kobollian survivors would undertake so long a journey so far from the other Colonies. The reference may be no more than a literary echo of the famous passage from the [[Book of the Word]].
<blockquote>
: The many shall go forth in time
: And many long shall search.
: And one shall find a garden
: in the rolling hills of Earth.
</blockquote>
: The passage, long taken to be a simple reference to spiritual renewal through contact with nature, has also been thought to indicate that humans were destined for a planet called Earth from the most ancient of days. <ref>{{cite_book|last=Kraus|first=Bruce|authorlink=|authorlinkurl=|coauthors=|year=1979|title=[[Encyclopedia Galactica]]|publisher=|location=|id=|pages=34-35}}</ref>

==Notes==
* The reference suggests that [[Earth (TOS)|Earth]] may be located in an entirely different galaxy from the [[Cyrannus (TOS)|Cyrannus]] where the [[Twelve Colonies of Man|Twelve Colonies]] are located, making the journey considerably more difficult than interstellar travel within the same galaxy.
