Additional Information


Colonial Movers is a company that operates four container ships that survived the Cylon attack (Miniseries, et al.).

One of the Colonial Movers ships is used as a decoy during the attack on a Cylon mining outpost. Although appearing to be a helpless mining ship, it is in fact carrying Captain Lee Adama's strike force of Vipers hidden in one of its cargo containers (The Hand of God).

At least one of the Colonial Movers ships is seen jumping with President Roslin to Kobol when the fleet divides in two (The Farm). Also, one of the Colonial Movers ships is apparently destroyed by the nuclear blast that destroyed the Cloud 9 (Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II).

Notes[edit]

  • The Colonial Movers name and slogan (We Move Anywhere) are visible on the ship model.
  • At least two Colonial Movers ships appear in the original series as well, with a similar design and the same slogan. They can be seen prominently during "Saga of a Star World", when the ships are first escaping the colonies. They do not figure prominently in any TOS story line, however.
  • Plastic model enthusiasts may recognize the front of the ship as an element of the heat shield of the second stage engines of a Saturn V moon rocket model.
