The first fleet to travel from Earth to the Twelve Colonies has arrived. As Admirals Lee Adama and Kara Thrace-Bond begin the process of reconnaissance on the twelve worlds, they immediately run into trouble on the most important planet of all-Caprica.

It is the year 2042 on Earth, fifteen years after the cataclysmic war against the Cylons. Humanity is building a great fleet and Battlestars and other ships of space. In two years' time, the largest Battlestars every constructed will lead a fleet on a mission back to the Twelve Colonies. But as mankind is poised for a future that seems boundless, a natural disaster and old hatreds in the small nation of New Caprica rise up and test the courage of many.

It has now been twenty-two years since Galactica and the remnants of Colonial civilization arrived at Earth. The two civilizations of Men that met that year are now one people.

In Australia, the two largest Battlestars ever constructed are ready to lead a new space fleet: this time to return to The Twelve Colonies of Kobol.

Galactica has jumped away after it's cataclysmic battle against The Colony. Although badly damaged, she is still in one piece. But she'll never jump again, and wherever she ends up, is where the fleet will stay. They emerge in a Solar System with nine planets and one sun And the third planet from the sun is inhabited. It is the year 2022 on Earth, and a former NASA Astronaut sitting at a computer terminal in Maryland makes a discovery that will change the course of the planet. And soon after, two distinct civilizations of Men will come face-to-face

It was unusual for The Admiral to make a house call. "Of course, Admiral, come on in." Caprica opened the door, which didn't surprise them...but Kara was in her wake. Judith Bond went immediately pale on seeing the stricken look on her daughter's face. "Kara...what is it?" Kara went up to her mother, with tears in her eyes. He father moved in next to his wife. "It's Nick. His Raptor was shot down."
