  • Ronald D. Moore has been chosen as a nominee for AskMen.com's Top 49 Influential Men of 2008. If you wish to vote, click here and look for the section on "Cultural Icons" where he is listed. So say we all!
  • In a press release issued by SkyOne on August 6th, SkyOne announces that it has acquired rights to air the 2-hour prequel Caprica on both SkyOne and SkyOne HD. It also gives the tentative date of November 2008 for its airing.
  • A video of the Battlestar panel at ComicCon can be watched on SciFi.com.
  • Battlestar Wiki's Joe Beaudoin Jr. will be involved with the Battlestar Props auction as a research assistant, leading a team of volunteer who are researching the various props, costumes, and set pieces that will be part of the official auction. This enables Battlestar Wiki exclusive access to behind-the-scenes content, which you will see added to the website in the coming months. As a result of this, Battlestar Wiki has created an independent wiki that chronicles the props, set pieces, and costumes used in the Battlestar Galactica television series, since there will be at least 3,000 different items that will be cataloged and part of the auction. If you wish to help us out, please start contributing to the Battlestar Wiki's Props reference located here.
  • A short promo for Caprica is available on SciFi.com. Also, BSG.cz has the first three high-resolution promotional photos from the pilot here.
  • Brandon Jerwa discusses his brand new four-issue comic mini-series, Battlestar Galactica: Ghosts, on Newsarama. That interview is here.
  • Read the "Battlestar Galactica" novel by Jeffrey A. Carver, now available to download in three various formats from Tor Books Freebies Bonanza.
