Galactica 1980
Encyclopedia
Galactica 1980 is a science fiction
television series, and a spin-off
from the 1978–1979 series Battlestar Galactica
. It was first broadcast on the ABC network
in the United States
from January 27 to May 4, 1980.
. Because letter writing campaigns in favor of restoring canceled television programs were uncommon in 1979, it prompted ABC
to re-think their reasons for canceling the show. After some deliberation, they contacted Glen Larson to see about reviving the series, albeit in some modified and less-expensive format.
Both Larson and the network felt the show needed some major change of focus to re-launch it as a spinoff, and Larson and Donald P. Bellisario decided to set the new series five years after "The Hand of God
", the final episode of the original series. This would allow them to weed out many supporting characters who were now considered superfluous - Colonel Tigh
, Athena
, Cassiopea
, Boxey
, etc. - which would bring down production costs. The only major characters to return from the original series would be Commander Adama
, Colonel Boomer (replacing Tigh), Apollo
, Starbuck
, and Baltar. Baltar was to have somehow made atonement for betraying the Colonies to the Cylons
, and was now the President of the Council of Twelve.
Upon discovering a 'present day' Earth completely unable to defend itself from the Cylons, Adama decided to just head off into deep space to lead the Cylons away from the planet, but Baltar suggested using Time Travel
Technology to alter Earth's history so its technology would develop more rapidly up to a Colonial level. The Council votes this suggestion down, so Baltar steals a ship capable of time travel and heads into Earth's past to carry out his plan anyway. After some deliberation, Starbuck and Apollo are sent after him to bring him back or at least undo his changes to history. Episodes would feature a new "Time Mission" every week, generally with Apollo at some different time in the past, and Starbuck flying back and forth between "Now" and "Then" to give information and support to Apollo. ABC
approved this pitch, and gave the go-ahead to develop a pilot for the series.
However, Dirk Benedict
was apparently unavailable at the time of filming. Richard Hatch
(Apollo in the original series) apparently was sent a script for Galactica 1980, but turned it down since he wasn't sure what his part in the series would be now that all the characters had changed. It was then decided the series would take place thirty years after the end of the original series, and that Boxey would be renamed Troy and take Apollo's role, while a character named Lt. Dillon would take over the Starbuck part. President Baltar was written out entirely, and Commander Xavier
or Doctor Xavier was created to take up his role as the resident bad guy. The premise of setting the series thirty years after the original series created a plot hole in that the original series ended with a video transmission being picked up by the Galactica from the Apollo moon landing, meaning that the original series would have to have taken place sometime after 1969 by Earth's calendar. A thirty year journey would mean that the Colonial Fleet could not have possibly reached Earth until the turn of the 21st Century rather than in 1980.
After the pilot was completed, the network was unhappy with the time travel aspects of the story, and agreed to pick up the series only if that subject was dropped. Larson and Bellisario reluctantly agreed, and the series instead became focused on Troy's and Dillon's attempts to protect some colonial children on Earth. Bellisario later re-tooled the original time travel concept and re-used it as the basis of the considerably more successful Quantum Leap.
The name "Pacific Tech" ("Pacific Institute of Technology") used in the three-part opening episode "Galactica Discovers Earth" is a name used several times in films and television when directors/writers/producers wanted to depict a science-oriented university without using a real institution's name, as also was earlier done in The War of the Worlds
and later in Real Genius
; an earlier draft of the script used the real-world name "Caltech".
, only to find that its people are not as scientifically advanced and that the planet can neither defend itself against the Cylons
nor help the Galactica as originally hoped. Therefore, teams of Colonial warriors are covertly sent to the planet
to work incognito with various members of the scientific community, hoping to advance Earth's technology.
Commander Adama
and Colonel Boomer
— now second-in-command — on the advice of Doctor Zee, a teenage prodigy serving as Adama's counsellor, sends Captain Troy, who is the adopted son of Adama's own son Apollo
, and Lieutenant Dillon to North America
, where they become entangled with TV journalist Jamie Hamilton. After an initial, epic time travel
adventure to Nazi Germany
in the 1940s (to stop rebel Galactican Commander Xavier
, trying to change the future to improve Earth's technology level), the three friends devise ways to help Earth's scientists and outwit the Cylons in the present day. Meanwhile, Adama sends a group of children from the Galactica fleet (the Super Scouts) to Earth in order to begin the process of integrating with the population. However, due to differences in gravity and physiology, the children must deal with the fact they have nearly super-human powers on Earth.
The fates of several characters from the original series are explained during the course of the series. Apollo is apparently dead, the cause of his seeming death not addressed. Starbuck was marooned on a desert planet, although the script for the episode "The Wheel of Fire" (unfilmed at the time of cancellation) indicated that Starbuck was eventually rescued from the planet by the inhabitants of the Ships of Light and became one of their inhabitants
. Captain Troy is revealed to be Boxey
, and Lt. Boomer has risen to the rank of Colonel and has become Adama's second in command. Baltar was apparently rescued from the planet he was marooned on in "Hand of God", and is now Commandant Baltar of the Cylon fleet pursuing the Galacticans. The fates of several other characters, including Adama's daughter Athena
, Colonel Tigh
, Starbuck's girlfriend Cassiopeia
, and Muffit the robot dog are not revealed. These characters are absent from the second series.

package for Battlestar Galactica and were given the same title as its parent program.
Following the series demise, a feature film entitled Conquest of the Earth was stitched together from sections of the three "Galactica Discovers Earth" episodes and the two "The Night the Cylons Landed" episodes. A scene of John Colicos, playing Baltar, was also spliced in to this release. The latter footage was actually taken from an episode of the original series — Baltar makes no appearance in any Galactica 1980 episode — and is partially dubbed, so as to make the speech sound relevant to the Galactica's new situation. Several early scenes involving Adama and Dr. Zee are also partially dubbed, to add more explanatory detail and to explain why two actors appear playing the role of Dr. Zee. The feature was released in cinemas in Europe and Australia and on home video elsewhere.
