Caprica Interplanetary Spaceport: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 19:33, 15 June 2025

The Caprica Interplanetary Spaceport, also known as Trojan Spaceport, is a facility located within Caprica City, Caprica. It provides off-world flights to locations within the Twelve Worlds including destinations to Picon, Gemenon, and Tauron. The spaceport's official abbreviation is CCX ^{(CAP: "End of Line" and "Retribution")}.

In 58 BCH (42YR), members of a Soldiers of the One cell led by Barnabas Greeley, including Pann, Hippolyta and Lacy Rand, attempt to bomb the facility. The terror attack, however, is botched when Rand is caught by a spaceport security guard who is promptly shot by Pann. Unable to plant their explosives in time, the three STO flee in a getaway car driven by Keon Gatwick. The Caprican Global Defense Department is tasked with investigating the incident, with Agent Jordan Duram suspecting Sister Clarice Willow's involvement ^{(CAP: "Retribution")}.

Olaf Willow drops off Lacy Rand here for her flight to Gemenon ^{(CAP: "Things We Lock Away" and "Blowback")}

Notes

The Caprica Interplanetary Spaceport was filmed at Simon Fraser University in Surrey, British Columbia. Photos of the location show set dressings labeling the port as "Caprica Inter-Colonial Spaceport".[1] The computer-generated exterior included architecture from the Incheon International Airport in South Korea.

Several ships bearing identical or near-identical configurations to ships seen in Battlestar Galactica appear docked at the spaceport. Among them are luxury liners of the same design as the Olympic Carrier and a passenger ship bearing a striking resemblance to Colonial One. A Phoenix-type jet, unique to Caprica, is also visible in the exterior shot of CCX.
