For information on the specific dating system in the Re-imagined Series, see Colonial calendar.
This article or section has been marked for cleanup and revision.
Should there be a need to discuss the merits of the claim, discuss them on the talk page.

This article attempts to plot the events illustrated or mentioned in the history and prehistory of the Twelve Colonies in the Re-imagined Series.

All dates use the day of the Fall of the Twelve Colonies as the central time marker for all events in the series. Items that occur before the Fall are marked as "BCH," or "Before Cylon holocaust."

Ancient History

  • 4,000 years BCH: The Thirteenth Tribe leaves the planet Kobol, later leaving a beacon in space and building the Temple of Five (The Eye of Jupiter)[1]
  • 3,600 years BCH: Pythia records her prophecies
  • 2,000 years BCH: The remaining Twelve Tribes leave Kobol
  • 2,000 years to 52 years BCH: The Twelve Colonies grow and prosper. Each colony acts as a sovereign nation, complete with inter-colonial wars

Recent Colonial History

Events of the Miniseries

  • Zero Hour:
    • The Armistice Station is destroyed by Cylon forces
    • Laura Roslin is diagnosed with inoperable breast cancer
    • Galactica is decommissioned
    • The Twelve Colonies are heavily bombarded by nuclear bombs
    • Picon Fleet Headquarters is destroyed
    • Galactica's last Viper Mark VII squadron is destroyed

    • Roslin's caravan survives two Cylon attacks and meets at Ragnar
    • Galactica changes from battle stance to civilian protection, escorts civilian fleet from Ragnar, towards the Prolmar Sector

Season 1

The timeline assumes that the days shown on Caprica with Helo corresponds to the timeline on Galactica. This is supported in the season 1 finale "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II," when Starbuck travels from Galactica to Caprica and discovers Helo.

"33" through "Hand of God"

Colonial Day

  • Day 46 - 49:
    • Delegates selected for the Quorum of Twelve, including Tom Zarek
    • Gaius Baltar selected to represent Caprica
    • A victory party leads Baltar and Thrace to interact[2]
    • Helo and Caprica-Valerii infiltrate the spaceport. Helo discovers Valerii is a Cylon and flees

Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I

  • Day 50:
    • Boomer and Crashdown stumble upon Kobol
    • Roslin unsuccessfully petitions Commander Adama to send the Cylon Raider after the Arrow of Apollo on Caprica.

Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II

  • Day 51:
    • Survivors of Raptor 1 escape the wreck
    • Adama terminates Roslin's presidency and arrests her
    • Starbuck absconds with the purloined Raider and arrives at Caprica, retrieving the Arrow of Apollo and meets up with Helo
    • Boomer successfully destroys basestar over Kobol
    • Boomer's Cylon programming activates and shoots Commander Adama at point-blank range

Season 2

Season 2 dates are rough guesses at best, and are complicated by the season two timeline discontinuity. Dates for the first half of the season are based on the last dates given at the end of season one.

"Scattered" through "The Farm"

  • Day 53:
    • Saul Tigh declares martial law after Roslin's arrest and attempts to commandeer supplies by force
    • The "Gideon massacre" takes place
    • Tyrol poisoned by Baltar to gain information from Boomer, but is revived
    • Starbuck and Helo meet the Caprica Resistance and Samuel Anders
    • Cally Henderson kills Boomer (Resistance (episode))
  • Day 61:
    • Laura Roslin takes refuge on Kimba Huta
    • William Adama resumes command of Galactica
    • Kara Thrace is captured by the Cylons and taken to a Farm
    • Cally Henderson is thrown into the brig for thirty days (The Farm)
  • Day 62:
    • Kara Thrace is rescued by the Caprica Resistance
    • Thrace, Helo, and Caprica-Valerii leave Caprica for Kobol
    • The doctor who tended to Thrace at the Farm is revealed to be a Cylon agent (The Farm)

Home, Part I

  • Day 64:
    • Roslin's expedition begins search on Kobol for the Tomb of Athena
    • Elosha dies
    • Adama decides to reunite the Fleet and begins preparations for searching Kobol for Roslin's party

Home, Part II

  • Day 65:
    • Commander Adama's party finds and joins with Roslin's party
    • Tomb of Athena is found and data gathered
    • Roslin reestablished as lawful President, Fleet reunified

Final Cut

  • Day 75: D'anna Biers produces a documentary aboard Galactica on the crew

Flight of the Phoenix

The events of this episode likely occur over several weeks with the construction of the Blackbird, and it was designed to have a vague timeline per the episode podcast. However, In "The Farm," Commander Adama gives Cally Henderson a 30 day sentence on Day 61, the same day he resumes command of the Fleet. It is likely that Henderson's release marks day 91. Precise date stamping is problematic regarding most other events outlined in the episode.

Between Days 91 and 175

  • Laura Roslin is given a few weeks, a month at the most to live.
  • Traces of the Cylon virus (Valley of Darkness) reemerge as a logic bomb and begin to disable Galactica's systems
  • Tyrol begins construction of the Blackbird
  • Galactica routs hundreds of Cylon fighters
  • Cylon logic bomb purged from Galactica
  • The Laura, the completed Blackbird, is successfully tested

Prior to the episode, "Sacrifice"

  • Admiral Helena Cain assumes fleet command
  • Day ~175:
    • Tyrol accidentally kills Pegasus Lieutenant Thorne and is arrested together with Helo
    • A standoff between the two battlestars begins over the treatment of the arrested Galactica crew

Resurrection Ship, Part I

  • Day ~175:[3]
    • The standoff between the two battlestars ends
    • Starbuck returns from an unauthorized surveillance mission to the Cylon fleet with data on the Resurrection Ship

Resurrection Ship, Part II

  • Day ~177:
    • The Battle of the Resurrection Ship occurs. The Resurrection Ship is destroyed
    • The Blackbird is destroyed in the battle

Downloaded

The originally aired episode contained an error in the form of a second time stamp title card which said "ten weeks ago" refereing to Boomer's death and resurrection, which placed the events of the previous episode, "Resistance," ten weeks prior. This was corrected to "ten weeks later" for the DVD release and subsequent airings, dating Boomer's death ten weeks after "Zero Hour", the attack on the Colonies. However, even this date may be incorrect for Boomer was killed on approximately day 53, which is just over 7.5 weeks from Zero Hour, not ten. While these inconsistencies within the episode makes the time of events problematic, given what was established before with the downloading process i.e. if not automatic it happens within a few hours at most, and even taking into account the flawed dates, Caprica Six and Boomer where resurrected well before the birth of Hera Agathon.

  • Day 1 (Flashback Zero Hour: Caprica Six is killed in a nuclear blast wave (Miniseries)):
  • Day 53 (Flashback: Cally Henderson kills Sharon "Boomer" Valerii (Resistance)):
    • Boomer is resurrected[4]

    • A Number Three "D'anna Biers" unit tasked Caprica-Six to help Boomer adjust to her Cylon nature.
    • Caprica-Six and Boomer resolve to persuade the Cylons to adopt a new approach in dealing with the Colonials.

References

  1. ↑ Galen Tyrol cites 4,000 years as the approximate age of the Temple. This is the oldest date noted in the Re-imagined Series timeline, but also conflicts with the prior date of Pythia and her works as described by Elosha in the season 1 episode, "Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I," where she notes that the exodus of all 13 tribes occurred 2,000 years prior.
  2. ↑ Roslin states that the chair will remain open for nominations for 72 hours on the morning of Day 47, but the next episode clearly takes place the day after the victory party, and is stated to take place on Day 50.
  3. ↑ The episodes "Resurrection Ship, Part I" and "Epiphanies" state that events in the episode "Pegasus" and the episodes immediately following it take place six months after the Cylon Attack. Ron D. Moore states in his podcast that it took Tyrol "weeks" to construct the Blackbird and a large amount of time passes in this episode as a result. While this figure was assumed to be 2 to 4 weeks, the only plausible way that "Pegasus" and "Resurrection Ship, Part I" can take place six months after the attack is if "Flight of the Phoenix" actually lasted three months from beginning to end. Roslin was told in this episode that her cancer had accelerated, and she had only one month to live. As Cally Henderson's "welcome back" party happened earlier in the episode, when she was released from the brig around Day 86, a considerable period of time (several weeks at least) pass between these two scenes
  4. ↑ 4.0 4.1 As alluded to by the future Sharon Agathon in "Scattered" after Kara Thrace killed a Number Six unit in a fight in the Delphi Museum of the Colonies on Caprica. She relates that the dead Six is downloading right now and probably reporting their position: "Her consciousness is being downloaded into another body right now. And when she wakes up, she'll tell them exactly where we are." From this we can infer that the process from death to resurrection is usually very short, measured in minutes if not seconds normally, hours at most if there are mass deaths, such as the parking garage explosion in "Downloaded" after Caprica Six killed the Number Three: "Boomer: How long till she downloads and tells them what happened? - Caprica Six: We had a lot of people in the cafe. At least 36 hours till they get to her. Long enough." These facts considered, it is a virtual certainty that Caprica Six resurrected on the same day of the attack and even more so in the case of Boomer. There likely were no deaths of other Cylons at the time of Boomer's death unlike when the Colonies were attacked and some Cylon agents deliberately stayed behind knowing they will resurrect in anycase.
  5. ↑ While the dates in this episode are contradictory, given that the second title card is most likely wrong even after the "correction", the Number Three unit's comment regarding Starbuck that "She was o­n Caprica a couple of weeks ago. She escaped with the help of another Sharon." could be one placement of events on Caprica in the parking garage a couple of weeks after Starbuck's escape from Caprica on day 62, making the parking garage scenes, if it could be assumed that a "couple of weeks" to be two weeks, to be roughly at day 75 and contemporary with "Final Cut". Another comment by the Three Unit earlier in the episode also provides a time frame. As they sit in the café on Caprica, just before the explosion, Caprica Six states (falsely) that Boomer asked her to help her move out of her apartment. The Three responds: "You know what? Which is what we've been asking her for weeks. I was kind of hoping that you'd see the light after talking to our friend here." "Weeks", not months or days but weeks, and that could be from two to four weeks. However, at four weeks or more than that, it would be most likely be couched in the term of a month. Boomer very likely went home to her apartment right after being resurrected on day 53 to be somewhere familiar. This time frame fits with Three's comment of Starbuck escaping a couple of weeks prior. Three's café statement would place the scene within weeks of Boomer's ressurection, aproximately three weeks earlier, again making the scenes roughly contemporary with "Final Cut". Alternatively, one could consider Number Three's comments errors, but the only thing that contradicts Three's café and garage comments is the second title card that has been proven to be mistaken once, and very likely twice.
  6. ↑ The date of Valerii and Agathon's child is speculated from the events in Season 1 and during the events of "Resurrection Ship, Part I", assuming that the Cylon agents share the same gestation period that humans do, and that the birth of their hybrid daughter is not premature. It is later confirmed that Hera's birth occurred on Day 270.
  7. ↑ While the time needed to get to Caprica may be considerable, the amount of fuel, rations and supplies would make it unlikely that the trip takes more than one-half day.
  8. ↑ This establishes that the rank of Major is the highest rank a Colonial soldier may have when not in command of a ship.
