Battlestar
Galactica is a franchise of American sci-fi films and television
series, the first of which was produced in 1978. A series of book
adaptations, original novels, comic books, and video games have also
been based on the concept. All of the Battlestar Galactica productions
share the same premise: A civilization of humans lives on planets in a
distant part of the universe. "The Twelve Colonies” have been
at
war with a cybernetic race known as the “Cylons.”
The
Cylons launch a sudden sneak attack on the Colonies, laying waste to
the planets and devastating their populations. A few thousand survivors
flee into space aboard any spacecraft they can reach, but of the entire
Colonial Fleet, the Battlestar Galactica appears to be the only
military ship to come through the attack. Her famed commander and crew
take up the task of leading the ragtag fleet of survivors in search of
a fabled refuge known as “Earth.”
