Additional Information

For this ship's Original Series counterpart, see Celestra (TOS).

The Celestra is an extended-duration research ship.

She is listed on the Roslin/Baltar presidential election tally boards (Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II).

The only time the Celestra is seen is in the episode "Water". Part of it is visible to the left of Colonial One in the shot before Roslin speaks to Lee Adama.

• The ship was mentioned on the official Battlestar Galactica web site hosted by the Sci Fi Channel.
• The Striker appears to be of the same configuration as the Celestra.
• The ship's name and design is an homage to the Original Series ship from the episode "Take the Celestra".
