* The ship is likely named after a figure in Colonial faith or mythology, given the parallels of the [[Religion in the Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Lord of Kobol|Colonial faith]] and the pantheon of Greek gods. In Greek mythology, [[w:Triton (mythology)|Triton]] is not one of the Twelve Olympians himself (and as such might not be considered a Lord of Kobol by the Colonials), but the son of Poseidon and messenger of the sea. | * The ship is likely named after a figure in Colonial faith or mythology, given the parallels of the [[Religion in the Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Lord of Kobol|Colonial faith]] and the pantheon of Greek gods.

* Quartararo's ship patch is incorrectly | * Quartararo's ship patch is incorrectly mislabeled "BST 39". The costuming department very likely assumed that "BSG" stands for "Battlestar ''Galactica''" and changed the last letter accordingly. However, "Water" and the patches for both ''Pegasus'' and ''Valkyrie'' establish that "BSG" stands for '''''battlestar group'''''. | ||
