	* ~~As of this episode~~, the show's opening credits change to show the title ''Battlestar Galactica'' instead of ''Galactica 1980''.		* For syndicated versions where ''Galactica 1980'' was sold alongside the Original Series, the show's opening credits change to show the title ''Battlestar Galactica'' instead of ''Galactica 1980''. The home video releases reflect ''Galactica 1980'' in the opening titles for all episodes.
	* The ~~freighter~~ ''~~Delphi~~''~~, which is~~ the Fleet's schooling ~~ship~~, is shown in this episode. The stock footage that is shown is of the freighter ''[[Gemini (TOS)\|Gemini]]'' from the Original Series—and its markings, complete with the name ''Gemini'' in huge letters, are clearly visible. The freighter is destroyed by the Cylons. Ironically, the Gemini freighter is also destroyed in ''Battlestar Galactica: The Second Coming'', the movie trailer created by Richard Hatch.		* The Fleet's schooling freighter, ''Delphi,'' is shown in this episode.

	* The [[Uniforms (TOS)#Cain's Uniform\|pendant]] seen on Boomer's neck is the same one that adorned [[Cain (TOS)\|Cain]]'s in "[[The Living Legend]]". It makes its first appearance in this episode.		* The [[Uniforms (TOS)#Cain's Uniform\|pendant]] seen on Boomer's neck is the same style as the one that adorned [[Cain (TOS)\|Cain]]'s in "[[The Living Legend]]". It makes its first appearance in this episode.
	* In keeping with the mandate of programs in the early evening times lots to have educational value, the theme of this episode is environmental conservation, which also comes up in "[[Space Croppers]]". Other educational beats include information on atmosphere and gravity.		* In keeping with the mandate of programs in the early evening times lots to have educational value, the theme of this episode is environmental conservation, which also comes up in "[[Space Croppers]]".

	* ~~The~~ ''[[Delphi (ship)\|Delphi]]'' develops engine trouble and stops "dead in space". However, the ship should still have inertia, thus continuing to move in space, until slowed or diverted by a gravitational pull or other outside force.		* ''[[Delphi (ship)\|Delphi]]'' develops engine trouble and stops "dead in space".

	* The Colonial preteen population seems to be fairly small since the episode establishes there are only ~137 schoolchildren on "Delphi" or less than one child per ship. Perhaps this is due to the fact most first-generation refugees from the Twelve Colonies are widowers/widows/elderly people who had to leave the children behind, or due to strict enforcement of zero population growth policies.		* The Colonial preteen population seems to be fairly small since the episode establishes there are only ~137 schoolchildren on "Delphi" or less than one child per ship.

	* In a classroom on board, [[Dillon]] is instructing the children about gravity and atmosphere. During his lecture, he admonishes [[Moonstone]], who tries to cheat by looking up terms on his [[wrist computron]]. Another student is able to answer and Dillon moves on to discuss atmosphere, which [[Starla]] participates in, and Dillon notes that the kids might get tired sooner due to the thinner gravity. During his discussion, Troy enters, mentioning that due to the lower gravity, they would be able to jump higher and run faster than Earth kids.		* In a classroom on board, [[Dillon]] is instructing the children about gravity and atmosphere.
