Notes
- The name Columbia is a derivation of the 15th Century Genoan explorer Christopher Columbus. While at first glance such an Earth-based name seems an unlikely choice for an "alien" culture, it might be a hint towards a different version of the Twelve Colonies' ancient history. It's also not the only use of clearly Earth-based terminology.
- In fan fiction, Columbia is considered the class name of the Original Series battlestars. This is not substantiated by any official sources. Battlestar Wiki does not support this or any other fan fiction.
