| An [[Lion's Head beacon|ancient probe]], possibly the first tangible evidence of the Thirteenth Tribe's existence was recovered by the Cylons in the [[Lion's Head Nebula]]. The probe contained a microbial virus that proved particularly virulent to the Cylons on the Baseship that recovered it. The Cylons feared the virus so much that they disabled and abandoned the Baseship. The probe was later destroyed when [[Sharon Agathon]] programmed the Baseship to self-destruct after the marine squad sent by ''Galactica'' to investigate had evacuated ([[Torn]], [[A Measure of Salvation]]).

| Earth however was not the Thirteenth Tribe's initial destination. They first settled on the [[Algae planet]] that is later discovered by the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Colonial Fleet]] and built [[The Temple of Five]] there. They eventually abandoned the planet left behind an artifact in the temple known as the "[[Eye of Jupiter]]," which is said to point the way to [[Earth]] ([[The Eye of Jupiter]]).
