Battlestar Galactica Terminology


Like the show, the comics or novels based on the Original Series, and its spinoff, Galactica 1980, use different terminology in order to make the universe visceral to the reader. This array of terminology, used by both the Colonials and Cylons, consists of military jargon, colloquialisms, sayings, and technical terms.

This page does not serve to regurgitate or repeat terminologies used in both series, but terms that only appear in both the comics and novels. Each section is separated by publisher (Berkley, Marvel, Realm Press, et al.), in order to make the continuities clear.

Berkley novelizations[edit]

  • germicide: part of a Warrior's medkit. Given the use of the suffix "-cide," this substance kills germs.[1]
  • viruscide: part of a Warrior's medkit. Given the use of the suffix "-cide," this substance kills viruses.[1]

Sergeant Omega hails from Sagitaria and is a long-time core command officer of the battlestar Galactica. Omega's task is more like that of an operations manager, and usually reports dire news in a consistent fashion to Tigh and Adama.

During the Battle of Cimtar, Omega replies to Tigh's question regarding his colony of Sagitara, sharing that "it is in flames" (TOS: "Saga of a Star World").

After the Cylon Attack[edit]

Omega is one of Apollo's groomsmen in his sealing ceremony to Serina, bearing witness to the lone star that lead them to Kobol (TOS: "Lost Planet of the Gods, Part II").

Despite being injured, he performs solidly when Galactica is rammed by two Cylon Raiders. He continually relays information from various systems to Colonel Tigh as they battle the raging inferno sparked aboard their ship. He acts as Tigh's right hand man during the ordeal, conducting emergency errands for mushies and well as maintaining a constant information flow (TOS: "Fire in Space").

Omega also appears in a variety of recruiting advertisements that are beamed from the Comm-Tel Ship for additional Warriors. One of these advertisements inspires Nomen Maga and Bora into finding a way aboard Galactica, on their quest to exact vengeance upon Chameleon. Omega is the first person new recruits appear to meet, introducing the batch that include Maga and Bora to Lomas during their initial walk-through (TOS: "The Man with Nine Lives").

He later attends, in full dress uniform, to the funeral service for Commander Kronus (TOS: "Take the Celestra").

Omega is instrumental in coordination of various sections during the Battle at Galaxy's Edge (TOS: "The Hand of God").

Commander Adama leads Kronus' funeral service aboard Galactica (TOS: "Take the Celestra")

Notes[edit]


This article has a separate continuity.
This article is in the Richard Hatch continuation separate continuity, which is related to the Original Series. Be sure that your contributions to this article reflect the characters and events specific to this continuity only.
For the character in the Original Series, from which this character is based, see: Omega.

Omega is the operations and communications officer on Galactica, serving on the ship for thirty yahren.

As of the events of "Armageddon," he is in his seventies and is one of the few bridge officers that have not retired from active military service.



Omega-Monthu is Baltar's basestar. Aboard this ship, he pursues Galactica and her Fleet to Earth. Having not attacked the Fleet in numerous yahrens, Baltar is able to lull the Fleet into a false sense of security, allowing this eventuality to transpire. From this basestar, he and his aide, Lucifer, launch an attack against the Thirteenth Colony and the remaining Fleet (Galactica 1980 #1#4). However, the tide turns on the Cylons, as Commander Troykus Adama integrates Earth's nuclear warhead technology into all the remaining Fleet ships—including the Vipers. Adama himself kamikazes his grandson's Viper into Omega-Monthu, destroying it and, it is assumed, killing Baltar and Lucifer in the process (Galactica 1980 #4).

Notes[edit]


This is a listing of sectors that are noted in the Original Series.

Beta sector[edit]

Beta sector is the location of a nearby habitable star system at the time of the Celestra mutiny. Mutineers from Celestra originally plan to escape from the Colonial Fleet to the 21st planet of this system (TOS: "Take the Celestra").

Delta sector[edit]

Delta sector is the location from where the last wave of Cylon warships approached the Colonial Fleet during refueling operations near the planet Gamoray (TOS: "The Living Legend, Part II").

Hatari sector[edit]

Main article: Hatari sector

Hatari sector is the location of Equellus, planet where Apollo crash-lands and later handles a lone Centurion who, commanded by Lacerta, terrorized a town (TOS: "The Lost Warrior").

Omega sector[edit]

Omega sector is a region outside the Cyrannus galaxy containing the Delta-class planet Attila, as well as two other planets.

Previously controlled by human descendants from the Twelve Colonies, the Cylons inevitably took forceful possession of the sector and its planets (TOS: "The Young Lords").

Ontarus sector[edit]

Main article: Ontarus sector

Ontarus sector is the location of Opelon (TOS: "I Have Seen Earth").

Sector Delta 5[edit]

Sector Delta 5, adjacent to the Tau Quadrant, is the location of the Otarsis Quadrant asteroid (TOS: "Lost Planet of the Gods, Part I").

Sector Sigma[edit]

Sector Sigma is the location of Arcta, itself apparently outside the Cyrannus galaxy (TOS: "The Gun on Ice Planet Zero, Part I").

Omega Station is a research outpost dating back to the First Cylon War, consisting of both humans and Cylons. The Cylons there, known as "companions," did not rebel against humanity.

The station exists to experiment with different ways of living in concert with the Cylons as equals (The Cylons' Secret).
