[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] My own guess (and this is just a guess) is that Moore's "Galactica" does NOT actually take place in the past (or present), as the original show seemed to. Instead, the whole idea of a "Thirteenth Colony" is actually a distortion of history, people mis-remembering the "first" exodus, AWAY from Earth. That is, after the Earth got used up.... er, that is, once Humanity developed interstellar travel... a large chunk of people up and moved out, to a planet that came to be known as Kobol. Many thousands of years probably passed, then there was a conflict, and Humanity fled Kobol (the second exodus) to settle the Twelve Colonies. Perhaps there really WAS a "Thirteenth Tribe," though, that (regardless of any other historical distortions) did try to make its way back to Earth. This could mean that that tribe left the little probe thingy, or even that the probe was first left on the way FROM EARTH. (Because I wonder just how Pythia managed to write down all the things that happened to the Thirteenth Tribe when there was no contact between them and the Twelve Colonies?) Also, it could be that the probe was not a bomb at all, it just contains a little microcosm of life that's undergone millennia of cosmic radiation bombardment and mutation, and the fact that it's harmful to the Cylons is pure coincidence.
