The word "Tauranian" is the adjectival form of "Tauron", and has been applied to at least two ships in the fleet.
Lieutenant Felix Gaeta refers to a Tauranian refinery ship in the episode "Resistance". Circumstantial evidence has indicated that the Fleet possesses only one refinery ship, and it was named as Daru Mozu in "Epiphanies". The miniseries novelization, however, briefly refers to a refinery ship actually named the "Tauranian". At present, it is unclear whether the Fleet is meant to have two refinery ships, or whether this was the result of an error.
The word is also used in the name of the Tauranian Traveler.
