| Additional Information | |||
The Pyxis is a ship in the Fleet and survives both exoduses. Its last captain is Tarney.
Pyxis is one of the many ships that are escorted by Raptors through a very dense star cluster to the algae planet (The Passage).
The ship is destroyed in the Battle of the Ionian Nebula by an out-of-control Cylon Raider that impacts near the engines after being damaged by a Viper, resulting in a chain reaction that destroys the ship and the loss of 600 people[1] (He That Believeth In Me).
Notes[edit]
- Pyxis is first introduced on the voting tally board in "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II". It is not seen until "He That Believeth In Me".
- Pyxis is a minor southern constellation introduced by Nicolas Louis de Lacaille under the name Pyxis Nautica. It is perhaps supposed to represent the compass of Argo Navis.
