The Fleet Prepares To Jump | Battlestar Galactica | Science Fiction Station

Characters and special effects where superb but the entire series was simply ALOT of red herrings to things that never really had an effect on the plot

I loved it, and I think Starbuck is awesome!

One of my favorite about BSG is the more traditional weapons. Flack cannons and missiles instead of lasers or phasers.

Invasion. Is. Coming. Now. 👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👽

The remake sucks. That‘s the way it is when you lack of ideas. 😂

Can we install anymore glass like material on the Galactica bridge??!?

I'm confusedly trying to figure out why Galactica's CIC, which is presumably in the center of the ship for protection from enemy fire, seems to take so much damage and get shaken so much every time Galactica gets hit

So advance and high tech... they still use wire coms. 😂😂

I love that when he hears it's just Starbuck and Apollo left out there, Tigh doesn't hesitate to order the pods closed. He's the XO, he's doing what has to be done to protect the fleet and he knows Adama won't stop him. But he won't make Adama give the order to leave his son behind.

The way the Galactica turns and bring her back and her majority of her guns to fire their salvos is awesome. The way she setup herself to protect the civilian fleet and be able to safely launch her Vipers it's something that you don't see in any naval fights in TV or cinema.
BSG i salute you.

THESE GUYS USE WINGS TO FLY IN SPACE?

made whith love!

A wait a minute, couldn't you do something like that with the toys back in the day?

Damn, even today this scene keeps me on edge!

Admiral risked the whole ship for 2 people.💀

I was 8 years old when I saw Star Wars for the first time in 1977,...and I'll never forget that that Star Destroyer flying over my head. Fast forward to this episode in 2003 when I was in my mid 30s. It was the coolest thing I'd ever seen. Expecting lasers we got hard projectiles and incredible attention to naval detail,...

best SCI FI, ever

This scene is the very moment that got me hooked on the whole reboot of BSG!

actually it was obvious, producers spent so much money for this 1st episode. as far as i remember there was no special effect used within next 5 episodes 🤣

This battle is EPIC.

Did they smash?

This was the best episode everyone after was crap.

Love how they use kinetic weapons and missiles. Makes the action more realistic.

Noticed that the Vipers, reflecting their age and cyber-security downgrade, actually have electromechanical gauges.

If 1 obsolete Battlestar can suppress 2 basestars and their fighter squadrons imagine what would have been had the modern fleet been able to fight.

Anyone notice the Olympic Carrier was the last civilian ship to jump?

Seems like as the leading toaster fighters are hit and fragment into pieces there would be a growing, moving field of debris that would chew up the following fighters and missiles.

One of the best sequences in all science fiction.

Amazing battle sequence. This one and the one where the Galactica jumps into atmosphere of a planet, releases her vipers, then jumps out... that was equally if not more badass.

I love the way Galactica sets her back then takes the beating to protect the population ships. And the crew is in battle stations.

The first season of both Battlestar show were the best...

Why can't they bring this show back? Loved the music

this final couple of seasons dragged on but the first few were amazing tv.

The need to make a new series for this

This would all be over if the Colonial Fleet had Holtzman space folding engines.

One of the most epic space battles of all time

As many times as I've seen this, I just noticed that the Galactica changes direction several times during the battle. haha

Ahhh the Thrace maneuver. The angel of death herself.

I loved this scene in the miniseries.

I forgot how amazing the soundtrack to this show was. Brilliant use of music.

he says 72 fighters but im pretty sure there were like 500 :X

The NuGalactica kicked old Galactica"s ass.

One of my favorite scenes in BSG

The Cowboy woman with blazing machine guns was amazing and ...a life saver

Thanks ❤

Epic. As the whole series.

20 years later this is still one of the coolest scenes
