The STO's jump ship lifting off on Gemenon.

A jump ship was a type of suborbital vehicle employed by civilians in the Twelve Colonies prior to the First Cylon War.

One such jump ship was utilized by the Monotheist Church to transport new recruits from the Gemenon spaceport to the Soldiers of the One training camp (CAP: "Blowback").

As part of initiation into the STO, new recruits are subjected to a simulated hijacking of the jump ship in which polytheist rebels take control and demand they renounce the "The One True God" or face execution. Unaware that it was simply a test, Lacy Rand was the only recruit aboard her jump ship to go on the offensive, attacking one of the "hijackers" - STO training camp leader Kevin Reikle - and forcing Diego to end the simulation (CAP: "Blowback").

Part of the simulation included the actual physical contact between the jump ship and a larger aircraft (CAP: "Blowback").
