GALACTICA TECHNOLOGY ANALYSIS
This manual presents a comprehensive database of Colonial and Cylon ships, weapons, and power systems. It attempts to explain how the technology of Battlestar Galactica would operate if interpreted through the rules of real-world science.
The project includes screen captures, technical drawings, engineering commentary, and rational explanations for science fiction concepts seen in the original 1979 television series. If you have ever wondered how turbo-lasers, vipers, battlestars, and Cylon capital ships might really function, you have come to the right place.
