We all know that the scrappy Battlestar Galactica finally made it to earth in 1980 after 30+ years of dodging malevolent shiny robots called Cylons, because they got a ten-episode TV series out of it called Galactica 1980.
So what did the intrepid space travellers get up to from 1981 onward? I’m thinking they settled in Worcester, earth’s answer to a strange distant galaxy. The evidence is a bit flimsy, but Galactica’s interstellar typography has been spotted right here in Worcester:
Battlestar Columbia
No word yet whether they’re employing any futuristic manufacturing processes in there, but I’m holding out hope for a Lorne Greene autograph one of these days.
