| Just as an aside, the hauntingly beautiful music track that plays just as Galactica enters the storm and concludes as hard dock is complete is called "The Storm and the Dead."

| Looking at the size of the anchorage compared to the Galactica, I wonder if there wasn't more to this station than just storing bullets. Could it serve as a fall-back fleet HQ? Did it have repair facilities? Medical equipment? It surely looks HUGE and has many sections to it. [[User:Bstone|Bstone]] 13:55, 1 February 2007 (CST)

| :It's left as one of the little mysteries of the show. Our armies certainly have depots where ammo is made. Apparently, its good not to make these on the base in case of contamination or explosion, and in the case of the Colonial Fleet, you also want a fallback that is difficult for your enemy to find or infiltrate. The size and its location does indicate that it did more than just act as a big storage pod, but we'll likely never hear of the Anchorage again. Too bad, too, because the [[Battle of Ragnar Anchorage]] is still my favorite overall battle as it shows how ''Galactica'' is still dangerous for an old battlestar. A part of the anchorage lives on in the [[Temple of Five]]; the same facility used for the Anchorage storage became the temple. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 14:37, 1 February 2007 (CST)

| ::Early drafts of the Miniseries had Adama say that Ragnar Anchorage was going to be scrapped two years ago, but they decided not to blow it up because that would be too expensive, so they just abandoned it. Therefore it may once have had a greater role, but since it was in disuse, they may have moved some of the useful (i.e. ammo-producing) equipment elsewhere. --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]] 15:07, 1 February 2007 (CST)
