[[ | [[Image:Galactica Museum.png|thumb|right|400px|Panoramic shot of the Museum, showcasing many of the exhibits.]]The main exhibits of the museum featured many significant wartime scale models, replicas, and artifacts. Those include: | ||

After fleeing the Colonies, many of the museum pieces find full-time use throughout the [[The Fleet (RDM)|fleet of surviving ships]]. The Vipers continue to defend the fleet, the landram is used for mining operations aboard ''[[Majahual]]'', and flight deck operations aboard ''Galactica'' {{TRS|Scar|Escape Velocity}}. However, the museum itself is never converted back to use as an operational flight pod, despite ''Galactica'''s increased load of Vipers inherited from the [[Mercury class battlestar|battlestar]] ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' {{TRS|Collaborators}}. On one occasion it temporarily serves as a quarantine zone when a number of ''Galactica''{{'|s}} marines and pilots come into contact with Cylons carrying [[lymphocytic encephalitis]] {{TRS|A Measure of Salvation}}. | After fleeing the Colonies, many of the museum pieces find full-time use throughout the [[The Fleet (RDM)|fleet of surviving ships]].

The museum is heavily damaged and repaired over the course of four years. The first hit comes less than two months after the fall of the Colonies, when an out of control [[Heavy Raider]] crashes into the pod, depressurizing it. A handful of [[Centurions]] survive the crash and board ''Galactica'', marching over museum pieces as they force their way into the ship and attack the crew {{TRS|Scattered}}.

Four years after fleeing the Colonies, the final blow to the museum and the flight pod containing it comes after a handful of Raptors utilize their [[FTL]] drives inside the pod as they jump to the Cylon [[The Colony|Colony]]. The distortions caused by the jumping ships blow a hole in the forward section of the pod, obliterating it. The surviving museum artifacts, if any, are flown into a [[Sol|nearby star]] with the rest of [[The Fleet (TRS)|the Fleet]] following the battle {{TRS|Daybreak, Part II}}. | Four years after fleeing the Colonies, the final blow to the museum and the flight pod containing it comes after a handful of Raptors utilize their [[FTL]] drives inside the pod as they jump to the Cylon [[The Colony|Colony]].
