}}The '''Space Park''' is an [[FTL]]-capable civilian passenger liner which originally was designed to simulate gravity through centrifugal forces for its passengers at a time where artificial gravity was too expensive to utilize on a commercial ship of that size.
 
These passenger ships were so versatile that versions were refitted as exploration and [[Colonial Fleet|military ships]], with interiors filled with laboratories, computer systems, power generators, and the like.
 
Some of the Space Park liners were later upgraded to include affordable artificial gravity in lieu of centrifugal spinning, but a few modernized liners maintained the rotation for aesthetic reasons.
 
At least one Space Park of [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Libra|Libran-registry]] was able to join [[the Fleet (RDM)|the Fleet]] and escape the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|destruction of the twelve colonies]]. After the discovery and settlement of [[New Caprica]], it was one of the few ships to remain in orbit, and managed to escape the Cylon blockade of the planet along with battlestars ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' and ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]''.
