In the aftermath of a devastating Cylon attack that destroys the Twelve Colonies of Kobol, humanity’s survivors flee across the galaxy in a ragtag fleet led by the aging Battlestar Galactica. Commander William Adama and President Laura Roslin must unite the remaining 50,000 humans as they search for the mythical planet Earth, the only hope for survival. As the Cylons pursue them relentlessly, the fleet faces constant threats from within and without—political intrigue, religious conflict, resource shortages, and the revelation that Cylons can now take human form. Over four seasons, the series explores themes of survival, identity, faith, and what it means to be human, culminating in a dramatic final confrontation that will determine the fate of both humanity and Cylon-kind.
