Additional Information



Galactica is one of the Colonial warships built in direct response to the generational war with the Cylon Empire.

Abilities

In addition to Viper support, Galactica's defensive and offensive potential includes energy shields, a battery of laser turrets and fusion missiles (Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 2 #11).

Locations

Detention Chamber

As a military ship, Galactica features a Template:Inline capable of imprisoning Centurions for interrogation, equipped with a gamma frequency field generator to cut off the enemy from access to the Cylon's network. The chamber is outfitted with a restraining chair capable of holding a typical Mark V Centurion.

A sole survivor from a Centurion stealth team detached to Burania is imprisoned in the detention chamber following a failed incursion into Galactica's science deck, itself later destroyed — along with most of the chamber — after a test of the recovered nano-cybrid (Battlestar Galactica: Cylon Apocalypse #1).

Science Deck

Galactica's science operations are established on a science deck, where scientists like Dr. Wilker operate in various laboratories.

A surviving nano-cybrid sample from Burania is brought to Wilker's lab, leading to an incursion by a Centurion stealth team that breaches the hull connecting said deck in an attempt to recover the disastrous nano-cybrid from Colonial hands (Battlestar Galactica: Cylon Apocalypse #1).

Server Room

Galactica utilizes bubble memory in its server room in 7335 (Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #2).

While Boomer works to decrypt McKintosh's data chip, Diana destroys part of the server room to prevent this, as the data chip contains information that links Councillor Osiris into the attack at Umbra (Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #2#4).

History

By 7335, Adama commands Galactica, with his eldest son and daughter, Apollo and Athena respectively, serving aboard. Boomer, Jolly and Starbuck would later serve aboard the ship following their graduation in 7335 (Battlestar Galactica: Starbuck #1).

Fleeing the Cylon Tyranny

A "Second" Galactica

Galactica deploys its sensor shield (Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 2 #4).

Galactica was never commissioned in the alternate reality (Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 2 #3), as the divergent alternate reality's creation sprung from an overloaded temporal battery, thus removing Galactica from all existence in a temporal storm that only Apollo and Starbuck witness (Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 2 #1).

However, Galactica from the primary reality was transported—sans crew—into the alternate reality, becoming an incongruous element. It is discovered by pirates lead by the privateer Starbuck, who claim it as their own. Aboard her, Starbuck's crew of scientists and technicians acquire Cylon components, including an Imperious Leader, devising a variety of anti-Cylon technologies.

Such discoveries include the defensive sensor shield, rendering Galactica invisible to Cylon scanning technologies (Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 2 #4).

Galactica becomes the last known battlestar that Baltifer hunts for and nearly succeeds in finding, resulting in the Battle of Cache. After the temporally displaced Starbuck influences his alternate, Galactica becomes the lynchpin that allows not only the Colonial Resistance to seize its first decisive victory, but to repair history by saving itself from the Nebula Ambush (Classic Battlestar Galactica Vol. 2 #5).
