BEHIND THE SCENES: GUN READY!

At Apogee, model maker and technician Jon Erland manipulates the lower cannon of one of the Galactica's formidable weapons bays, either for the filming or as a test, in this great behind the scenes image for Saga of a Star World.

REUNITED IN LOVE AND GLORY!

It's a time of joy for the Colonial Fleet as the legendary Cylon killer Commander Cain is discovered very much alive and well, alongside the brave men and women of his equally legendary Battlestar Pegasus. For Cain, its great to be reunited with other members of humanity, especially his lost love Cassiopeia, in this scene from The Living Legend, Part One.

'GALACTICA 1980': EARTH EXPLORATIONS!

The skies of Earth are now penetrated by a different kind of flying vehicle than the norm - the Colonial Vipers of the Battlestar Galactica, newly arrived to carefully check out the human civilisation and assess its technological strength, in a nice effects composite shot from Galactica 1980.

THE CAPTIVE HUMAN!

The ice planet Arcta's efficient Cylon outpost has successfully destroyed the majority of the Colonial Patrol entering its system with their pulsar weapon emplacement, and now they have a crash-landed, captive warrior ripe for interrogation. Watch out, Cadet Cree!

A memorable scene from Gun On Ice Planet Zero, Part One.

THE CONTINUING SPACE JOURNEY...

Another great, rarely seen angle of the massive Galactica model from the series' opening episodes, as one of its impressive landing bays prepares to receive an inbound shuttle.

I wonder how much more unused Apogee shot footage of the Galactica resides in the Universal Studios Archives...?

CLASSIC ART: WHEN CENTURIONS ATTACK!

Locking on to their human prey, the Cylon Centurions will not stop in their mission in this evocative fan art showing the series' classic enemies at their best.

If anyone knows the artist of this great piece, please get in touch.

INSIDE THE KINGDOM OF THE OVIONS!

The discovery of the Ovion civilisation inside the Tylium mine caverns of Carillon sees Apollo and his recon party encounter the aliens' mysterious Queen leader, Lotay, in a reshot sequence from Saga of a Star World.

It's a shame that the series couldn't reveal more alien creatures during its singular season run.
