Additional Information


The Yellow-hulled Vessel[1] was a transport ship in the Twelve Colonies.

At least three survived the initial attacks, but one was left behind to be destroyed by the Cylons. The twoFTL-capable one was seen throughout the Fleet (Act of Contrition) (Six Degrees of Separation) (Flesh and Bone).

One of the vessels was also seen orbiting Cloud 9 when Gina Inviere's nuclear bomb destroyed the luxury liner and three surrounding vessels, including the vessel itself (Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II).

The second would survive beyond the exodus from New Caprica (The Son Also Rises) and the Battle of the Ionian Nebula (Daybreak, Part II) where it was flown into the sun following the discovery of second Earth.

Behind the Scenes[edit]

  • The ship resembles the Kodiak from the game Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun.
  • The ship was often seen in the background and never seen up close until Daybreak, Part II just prior to Galactica leaving the fleet to rescue Hera Agathon from the Cylons.
    • It was suspected that the ship design had been lost following the destruction of Cloud 9 but the ship did make a reappearance in "The Son Also Rises" as Hotdog checks in with the LSO two weeks after Starbuck's death. This was believed to be a continuity error as it has been known for footage of the Fleet can be reused. The ship's full shot was seen once again in Daybreak, Part II.
