A '''jump ship''' is a type of suborbital vehicle employed by civilians in the [[Twelve Colonies]] prior to the [[First Cylon War]].

One such jump ship is utilized by the [[Monotheist Church]] to transport new recruits from the [[Gemenon]] spaceport to the [[Soldiers of the One]] training camp ([[CAP]]: "[[Blowback]]").

As part of initiation into the STO, new recruits are subjected to a simulated hijacking of the jump ship in which polytheist rebels take control and demand they renounce the "[[God (RDM)|The One True God]]" or face execution.  Unaware that it is simply a test, [[Lacy Rand]] is the only recruit aboard her jump ship to go on the offensive, attacking one of the "hijackers" - STO training camp leader [[Kevin Reikle]] - and forcing [[Diego]] to end the simulation ([[CAP]]: "[[Blowback]]").

Part of the simulation includes actual physical contact between the jump ship and a larger aircraft ([[CAP]]: "[[Blowback]]").

Some time later, Lacy Rand, [[Odin Sinclair]] and several other surviving recruits consider taking the STO jump ship and fleeing Gemenon ([[CAP]]: "[[Here Be Dragons]]").

-== Notes ==
-* The interior of the jump ship is a redress of the [[Metropolitan Levitation Mass Transit|MLMT train]] set from the ''[[Caprica (series)|Caprica]]'' [[Caprica pilot|pilot]]. Distinctive bulkhead patterns identical to those seen aboard the ''[[Galactica (TRS)|Galactica]]'' in the [[Re-imagined Series]] are present in both the jump ship and train sets.
-* In the podcast commentary for "Blowback," [[Tom Lieber]] explains that director [[Omar Madha]] used "old school ''Star Trek'' techniques" for the hijacking sequence. The actors would physically shake in unison to simulate the ship being jostled and captured, a practical effect that was then combined with CGI.<ref>[[Podcast:Blowback|Podcast for "Blowback"]], timestamp 04:38</ref>
