I was doing ScreenCaps to send to StarshipBuilder.com - and anyone else who might want them, just shoot me an email! - and noticed that at the closing of the Miniseries, there were two Colonial Movers ships in the RTF when we get our first glimpse of Galactica w/the RTF. So, I got curious to see what all was out there lurking w/in the confines of the RTF and noticed the above. I used Adobe Photo Deluxe Business Edition 1.0 that I picked up some years ago to first crop a section that looked sort of like a TOS Constitution, then enlarge it and play around w/the hue & contrast a bit. What I got was the above image.
Wonder what else those folks at Zoic Studios thru in to the background of the RTF? We got to see Serenity from "Firefly" in the Miniseries as it comes in for a landing in the scene where Roslin learns she's got breast cancer. Think there's another Firefly-class transport lurking in the RTF?
It's verified by one of the guys from Zoic Studios in this thread at StarshipBuilder.com. Guy's name is Lee Stringer and he says in that post that, not only are there some other ships in the RTF that we don't normally see, but that he's been waiting over two years for someone to catch that! I'm pretty chuffed right now, lemmetellya!
Yeah... I'm a geek....
I thought I'd seen it on the DVD set that a friend of mine burned for me back in February, but wasn't really sure. I figured at that time that it was just an artifact of the copy and was seeing a mis-perceived image (or however that should be properly worded). My greatest fear when I posted this thread was that someone'd pop up and say "You're just now seein' this? We've known about that for a while now!"

Wow... interesting that they actually threw that in there. I wonder if there's a USS Voyager lurking around or a Klingon on their tail...

Looks like the ringship (of sorts) as well.

That's from the Miniseries. It's the scene where we first meet Laura Roslin when she's in the doctor's office and gets the news about her cancer.

Well, it is supposed to be a nerdy spelling correction, but I'm not sure if that really reflects any better on me.

When I am elected dictator, the first thing I will do is issue a law that forces people to spell the country's name precisely like that, and grants me the right to personally break the fingers of anyone who transgresses it. Twice.
