Nimbus is an ice planet within the Hasari sector.
The Colonials receive a message originating near Nimbus, promising information in their fight with the Cylons. Red Flight, a Viper squadron consisting of Captain Lukas, Shane, Rylo, and Tybalt, are tasked by Colonel Jen Kassia to scout ahead of Galactica.
Red Flight jumps to the planet, only to encounter a phalanx of Cylon Raiders in wait, who ambush them, with Rylo being the longest to survive before crashing into a chasm on Nimbus' surface. Following this quick dispatch, the phalanx jumps to intercept Galactica (2003 Video Game).
Notes
- The term nimbus is Latin for "dark cloud."
