Yarborough was mentioned in an earlier draft of LPOTG. A liner, I think it was.

In the novelization of "Saga," the Atlantia's sister ship was the Pacifica, but it was also destroyed.

I always thought "Edina" was spelled "Adena." Or is the "E" spelling what shows up when you use close-captioning?

In the background chatter you can also hear mention of Triton.

Battlestar Galactica 1978 About the ships of the ragtag fleet...

It stands to reason that one of those two hundred and twenty ships, not counting the Galactica itself, just might have been a step down from a prison barge--namely, a garbage scow.

And who is to say that the Rising Star did not once belong to Baltar, BEFORE it belonged to Sire Uri, or that Baltar himself did not once have to salvage, restore, and/or convert a garbage scow just so he might have his own ship?
