About the picture: That's from "Hand of God" when Strikforce 2 is waiting in/on the freighter. But it doesn't really fit into an article about launch tubes. A good shot might be Kara in the tube from the Miniseries --Serenity 16:04, 13 September 2006 (CDT)
- Good catch. I'll scrounge for a more appropriate image. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 16:13, 13 September 2006 (CDT)
- I have something perfect in mind, I'll upload it later tonight. --Talos 17:15, 13 September 2006 (CDT)

Operational Status[edit]
Are all the launch tubes operational now? --Steelviper 08:21, 2 January 2007 (CST)
- Some people claim that Vipers launched for the starboard pod in "Exodus, Part II", but as far as I can see, you can't tell from the visuals whether it was the starboard or port flightpod.
- In "A Measure of Salvation" Apollo orders a Raptor to land in the starboard pod, but that doesn't have to mean that the launch tubes are operational as well. Could be, but there is no definite evidence --Serenity 08:49, 2 January 2007 (CST)
- Well, as part of the decomissioning, one would probably assume that those functions were removed (after all the coils were removed from Big G as well). After all it would really suck if some kid opened the launch tube and pulled a Jammer... -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 16:10, 2 January 2007 (CST)
Evidence[edit]
Where are the evidence for the info in the first para regarding the launch tube setup? All I've ever seen is one tube and one supervisor. --Cohnee 07:30, 8 January 2007 (CST)
- Good question. I suspect if it's legit someone may be getting their info from a sourcebook or some such. That's awfully detailed. Either way it deserves a cite of where it came from. --Steelviper 07:44, 8 January 2007 (CST)
- The 5*8 arrangement might be derived from the spacing on the CGI model. All in all, it seems to be from something like the BSG magazine though --Serenity 07:50, 8 January 2007 (CST)
