The '''Caprica Interplanetary Spaceport''', also known as '''Trojan Spaceport''', is a facility located within [[Caprica City]], {{RDM|Caprica}}. It provides off-world flights to locations within the [[Twelve Colonies of Kobol|Twelve Worlds]] including destinations to [[Twelve Colonies of Kobol#Picon|Picon]], [[Gemenon]], and [[Tauron|Tauron]]. The spaceport's official abbreviation is CCX {{CAP|End of Line|Retribution}}.


In {{BCH|58}}, [[Lacy Rand]] and [[Odin Sinclair]] arrive here from their respective colonies. They are met by [[Diego]], who leads them to the [[jump ship]] headed to the [[Monotheist Church]] enclave {{CAP|Things We Lock Away|Blowback}}.
In {{BCH|58}}, members of a [[Soldiers of the One]] cell led by [[Barnabas Greeley]], including [[Pann]], [[Hippolyta]] and [[Lacy Rand]], attempt to bomb the facility. The terror attack, however, is botched when Rand is caught by a spaceport [[Unnamed characters (CAP)#Security Guard|security guard]] who is promptly shot by Pann.  Unable to plant their explosives in time, the three STO flee in a getaway car driven by [[Keon Gatwick]]. The [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprican]] [[Global Defense Department]] is tasked with investigating the incident, with Agent [[Jordan Duram]] suspecting Sister [[Clarice Willow]]'s involvement {{CAP|Retribution}}.
 
[[Olaf Willow]] drops off [[Lacy Rand]] here for [[Gemenon Interplanetary Spaceport|her flight]] to [[Gemenon]] {{CAP|Things We Lock Away|Blowback}}


==Notes==
==Notes==
*The Gemenon Interplanetary Spaceport interiors were filmed at the [[Filming locations (RDM)|Vancouver Public Library]] in [[Vancouver, British Columbia]].
*The Caprica Interplanetary Spaceport was filmed at [[Wikipedia: Simon Fraser University|Simon Fraser University]] in [[Wikipedia: Surrey, British Columbia|Surrey, British Columbia]]. Photos of the location show set dressings labeling the port as "Caprica Inter-Colonial Spaceport".[http://www.flickr.com/photos/jtanenbaum/4077340868/in/photostream/]  The computer-generated exterior included architecture from the [[Wikipedia: Incheon International Airport|Incheon International Airport]] in South Korea.
*While not stated in dialogue, the spaceport's name, Oranu Spaceport, is seen on the flight notice boards in "[[Blowback]]." Furthermore, in the podcast commentary for "Blowback," the spaceport is mentioned as the arrival point for [[Lacy Rand]] on [[Gemenon]] before she takes a [[Jump ship|connecting flight]] to the [[Soldiers of the One]] training retreat. ''Caprica'' executive [[Tom Lieber]] reaffirms the spaceport's location in Oranu, supporting the brief on-screen evidence.<ref>[[Podcast:Blowback|Podcast for "Blowback"]], timestamp 01:12</ref>


== References ==
*Several ships bearing identical or near-identical configurations to ships seen in ''[[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)|Battlestar Galactica]]'' appear docked at the spaceport.  Among them are luxury liners of the same design as the ''[[Olympic Carrier]]'' and a passenger ship bearing a striking resemblance to ''[[Colonial One]]''.  A [[Phoenix]]-type jet, unique to ''[[Caprica (series)|Caprica]]'', is also visible in the exterior shot of CCX.
