	Over a year later, an [[Lion's Head beacon\|ancient probe]], possibly the first tangible evidence of the Thirteenth Tribe's existence, is recovered by the [[Cylons (RDM)\|Cylons]] in the [[Lion's Head Nebula]]. The probe contains a [[Lymphocytic encephalitis\|virus]] that proves particularly deadly to the Cylons on the [[Basestar (RDM)\|baseship]] that recover it. The Cylons fear the virus so much that they abandon the baseship, moving their [[Resurrection Ship]] away to prevent any dying Cylons from resurrecting and transferring the bioelectric component of the pathogen to the Cylon populace. The probe is later destroyed after the baseship self-destructs ("[[Torn]]", "[[A Measure of Salvation]]").

	The Thirteenth Tribe apparently has used one planet as a waystation in their journey. They settled on a [[algae planet\|planet]] and built a [[Temple of Five\|Temple of Hopes]] to pray for a path to their new home. Later, this temple was renamed in Colonial mythology to the "Temple of Five" and described as being dedicated to five priests that worshipped "[[the one whose name cannot be spoken]]". It is uncertain when this modification took place or who did it. Over 4,000 years later, the Temple of Five is discovered by the Fleet. The refugee Colonials believe that an artifact called the [[Eye of Jupiter]] resides there, which is another marker on the path to [[Earth (RDM)\|Earth]] {{TRS\|The Eye of Jupiter}}.

	When the Five's Cylon "children" destroyed the Twelve Colonies, the Five ended up having to go through another nuclear holocaust, although they survived this one without downloading. The Cavils had expected them to die, download and apologize but none died. Tyrol and Saul Tigh were on ''Galactica'', Anders was high in the mountains doing survival training, Tory survived a blast outside [[Delphi]], and Ellen survived a blast on Picon, but was seriously hurt. Cavil, who was with her at the time, helped rescue her as he felt she hadn't learned the lesson he wanted her to learn and didn't want her to die and download until she learned that. Both Ellen and Anders said "this has happened before" after the attacks started, parts of their past apparently emerging, and Ellen even got flashes of memory of herself on Earth with Saul before they were killed, although she apparently didn't remember this later {{TRS\|The Plan}}.

	Anders, after getting shot in the head, had his memories restored, but after a surgery to remove the bullet, went into a sort of vegetative state before later becoming ''Galactica's'' [[Hybrid]] and was unable to communicate most of what he learned. The Five were reunited and helped battle the enemy Cylon forces in a battle that resulted in the destruction of [[The Colony]], the ship that the Five used to get from Earth which was used as the main Cylon base. Galen Tyrol kills Tory Foster during the battle for murdering his wife and Samuel Anders is later killed when he flies the Fleet into the new Earth's sun. With the deaths of Anders and Foster, there were only three remaning true survivors of the Thirteenth Tribe until they died of presumably natural causes later.

They settled on a [[algae planet\|planet]] and built a [[Temple of Five\|Temple of Hopes]] to pray for a path to their new home. Later, this temple was renamed in Colonial mythology to the "Temple of Five" and described as being dedicated to five priests that worshipped "[[the one whose name cannot be spoken]]". It is uncertain when this modification took place or who did it. Over 4,000 years later, the Temple of Five is discovered by the Fleet. The refugee Colonials believe that an artifact called the [[Eye of Jupiter]] resides there, which is another marker on the path to [[Earth (RDM)\|Earth]] {{TRS\|The Eye of Jupiter}}.

	No such artifact actually exists, however. The Eye of Jupiter is, in fact, the image created by the planet's dying sun. A strange and highly improbable sequence of events occurs when both Cylon and Colonial forces meet at this unremarkable "algae planet" to find the legendary lost temple near the moment of the star's imminent nova. After they leave the system, the Colonials discover that the nova resembles another older nova that occurred in the time of the Thirteenth Tribe's exodus, located in the [[Ionian system]], and believe that they have found a new marker to Earth.

	The Temple was apparently modified to allow an individual to see the faces of the [[Final Five]] as the star begins to nova. Ellen Tigh states that this modification was not done by the Final Five, though she confirms that the five of them did rediscover the temple on their journey from Earth.<ref>The modifier was apparently very good at creating holographic and vision mechanisms. The [[Tomb of Athena]] used an apparent 3-D projection, visible to all people in the tomb, to show the initial path to Earth. The vision in the Temple, however, is not seen by Baltar, which implies a different technology.</ref> A [[Number Three]] Cylon uses the device. Only [[Gaius Baltar]] witnesses this mechanism in use, but is reluctant to use it himself until it is too late, when the mechanism shuts down as the nova's light is replaced by the shadow of its shockwave {{TRS\|Rapture}}.
