'''''Rising Star''''' is a medical transport and is the location of the first birth of a Colonial since the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]] {{TRS|33}}.
The '''''Rising Star''''' is a medical transport and is the location of the first birth of a Colonial since the [[Cylon attack]] ([[33]]).


[[Ellen Tigh]] is placed aboard a [[Raptor|MEDEVAC Raptor]] hailing from the vessel by [[Number One|John Cavil]] shortly before it departs from [[Picon]] during the Fall {{TRS|No Exit|The Plan}}.  She slips in and out of consciousness aboard the ship for three weeks and is attended to while being cryptically mocked by Cavil before [[William Adama]] locates her {{TRS|Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down}}. She later procures a day-long stay there for her husband and herself, where she apparently meant for him to meet with agents of [[Tom Zarek]] {{TRS|Colonial Day}}.
[[Ellen Tigh]] is placed aboard a MEDEVAC Raptor hailing from the vessel by a copy of the Humanoid Cylon known as [[Number One|John Cavil]] shortly before it departs from Picon during the the [[Cylon attack]] ("[[No Exit]]", "[[The Plan]]").  She slips in and out of consciousness aboard the ship for three weeks and is attended to (and cryptically mocked by) Cavil before [[William Adama]] locates her ([[Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down]]). She later procures a day-long stay there for her husband and herself, where she apparently meant for him to meet with agents of [[Tom Zarek]] ([[Colonial Day]]).

''Rising Star'' survives the exodus from [[New Caprica]], passage through the [[star cluster]] to the [[algae planet]] and the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]] before it would be flown into [[Sol]] after the discovery of [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]] {{TRS|Exodus, Part II|The Passage|He That Believeth in Me|Daybreak, Part II}}.

* A ship that looks like the ''[[Rising Star (TOS)|Rising Star]]'' from the Original Series can be seen in shots of the Fleet beginning with the episode "[[Escape Velocity]]." Another vessel of the same design appears in "[[Razor]]" as part of ''Pegasus''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s civilian fleet. "The Plan" is the first time the design was explicitly linked with the ''Rising Star'' in the reimagined series.

== Notes ==
* ''Rising Star'' first appeared in the distant background in the establishing shot of the Fleet shortly after escaping [[Ragnar Anchorage]], flying in formation between the [[Celestra (RDM)]] and one of the [[Colonial Movers]] freighters over a [[Gemon Liners]] [[Luxury liner]] in the distant background as almost a small blob in the background not noticed or distinguished until the release of the Blu-rays. ''Rising Star'' would be formally identified in "[[The Plan]]," albeit with a new color scheme.
* The ship's first mention would be in "[[33]]", with the first birth in the Fleet occurring here as mentioned by [[Billy Keikeya]]. The next mention would be in "[[Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down]]" then "[[Colonial Day]]," with a final mention at the beginning of [[Season 2 (2005-06)|Season 2]]'s "[[Scattered]]". The ship would then be seen properly distinguished in "[[Pegasus (episode)|Pegasus]]" flying just beyond [[Pegasus (TRS)|''Pegasus'']] and [[Galactica (TRS)|''Galactica'']]  in the first shot of the Fleet following Admiral [[Helena Cain]]'s arrival. It wouldn't be until [[Season 4 (2008-09)|Season 4]]'s "[[Escape Velocity]]" where it would be part of main Fleet formation shots.
* Another vessel of the same design appears in "[[Razor]]" as part of the civilian fleet ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' encounters.
* Both designs are inspired by the design of the [[Original Series]]' ''[[Rising Star (TOS)|Rising Star]]''.
