Aurora is the Roman goddess of the dawn, and possibly one of the Lords of Kobol. When Kara Thrace visits the oracle Brenn in Dogsville, she touches a small winged icon of the goddess, which is then given to her by the oracle.

She later gives the icon to Admiral Adama as a figurehead to place on the bow of the model sailing ship he is building (Maelstrom).

Notes

  • Her Greek counterpart is Eos. She belonged to the Titans and not the Olympians, after whom the Lords of Kobols seem to be modeled after.
  • One of the ships in the Fleet is named after her.
