|
| '''''Pyxis''''' is an orange-colored [[passenger liner]] in the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] that survives both exoduses. Its last captain is [[Jules Tarney]].
| | Its name is shown on the voting tally board in "[[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]". |
|
| |
|
| During the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|attack on the Colonies]], ''Pyxis'' was in orbit of [[Canceron]], before eventually joining up with the rest of the surviving ships near {{RDM|Caprica}} ([[TRS]]: "[[The Plan]]," [[Miniseries]])
| | The ship is later escorted by [[Raptors]] through a very dense star cluster to the [[algae planet]] ([[The Passage]]). |

|
| ''Pyxis'' is one of the many ships that are escorted by [[raptors]] through a very dense star cluster to the [[Algae_planet|Algae Planet]] {{TRS|The Passage}}. | | ''Pyxis'''s captain is selected to be a judge at [[Gaius Baltar]]'s trial <ref>In one scene from "Crossroads, Part I" his [[:Image:PyxisCaptain.jpg|uniform patch]] is visible.</ref>. Together with William Adama, he votes to hear Lee Adama's testimony ([[Crossroads, Part I]] & [[Crossroads, Part II|Part II]]). |
| | |
| The ship is lost in the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]] when a spiraling [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] [[Raider (RDM)|Raider]], damaged by Viper fire, impacts near the engines, resulting in catastrophic damage. The resulting explosion destroys the ship with 600 people aboard {{TRS|He That Believeth in Me}}.

| *The ship can first be seen joining Laura Roslin's convoy in the [[Miniseries]]. However, the name ''Pyxis'' is first introduced on the voting tally board in "[[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]," and the ship is not identified as such until "[[He That Believeth in Me]]."
| |
| *It appears to be of very similar design to the ill-fated ''[[Olympic Carrier]]'', and could possibly be another ship of the same class.
| |
| *The interior of ''Pyxis'' is shown in "[[The Plan]]" and in two deleted scenes from the [[Daybreak, Part I|two-part]] [[Daybreak, Part II|series finale]]. The inside of this ship has orange walls with seats identical to those inside ''[[Colonial One]]'', with one set of top-facing windows and one set facing the side, also similar to ''Colonial One''. However, the exterior of the ship features only one set of windows, creating a design goof, likely created through the redressing and reuse of ''Colonial One's'' interior sets.

It is perhaps supposed to represent the compass of [[w:Argo Navis|Argo Navis]]. | | *[[w:Pyxis|Pyxis]] is a minor southern constellation introduced by [[w:Nicolas Louis de Lacaille|Nicolas Louis de Lacaille]] under the name Pyxis Nautica.
