Additional Information

Battlestar Triton, featuring integrated command and control systems, and featuring Dr. Gaius Baltar's Command Navigation Program (CNP) is reported as lost with many other battlestars of the Colonial Fleet during the Cylon Attack, along with the Columbia and Solaria (Miniseries).

While it is never explained how Crashdown escaped Triton or when he joined Galactica, Boomer refers to him as "a refugee from Triton" (33) and Crashdown's uniform insignia on that episode clearly shows 'Battlestar Triton' rather than that of Galactica.

Notes

  • The ship is likely named after a figure in Colonial faith or mythology, given the parallels of the Colonial faith and the pantheon of Greek gods. In Greek mythology Triton is not one of the Twelve Olympians himself (and as such might not be considered a Lord of Kobol by the Colonials), but the son of Poseidon and messenger of the sea.
