			* ''According to ''[[Encyclopedia Galactica]]'' (a non-canonical piece of merchandise published in 1979):''

			: The Nova of Madagon is a space corridor near the heart of the [[Cyrannus (TOS)\|Cyranus Galaxy]] densely packed with small, bright stars. The stars' brilliance and their complex gravitational interactions make navigation through the Nova extremely dangerous. The Nova was thought to be wholly impassable after being [[Cylon mine\|mined]] by the [[Cylons (TOS)\|Cylons]], but a path was cleared by three members of the ''[[Galactica (TOS)\|Galactica]]''{{'\|s}} [[Blue Squadron (TOS)\|Blue Squadron]]: [[Apollo (TOS)\|Apollo]], [[Starbuck (TOS)\|Starbuck]] and [[Boomer (TOS)\|Boomer]]. <ref>{{cite book\|last=Kraus\|first=Bruce\|year=1979\|title=[[Encyclopedia Galactica]]\|pages=43-44}}</ref>
