Following the settling of Caprica, Borellus established the rules and customs of the , eschewing technology in the pursuit of perfecting themselves while blending with the Caprican biosphere they encountered. In the millennia that followed, those who fled the dying world of came across Caprica and were able to dispatch the Nomen with sheer numbers and advanced technologies, leading to a schism between the Colonials and the Nomen.

Botanical Cruiser

Botanical Cruisers are ships with bio domes that serve as civilian transports, possible vacation spots, or are used as greenhouses for specialty food or plant-matter production.
===Sublight Cruiser===
Newly-inaugurated President Laura Roslin visited the sublight-capable Botanical Cruiser while gathering a caravan from surviving civilian ships surrounding the colony of . There she meets with the ship's captain and crew to determine their needs, and also meets a young girl named Cami and her grandmother who are traveling on the ship with many others, bound for Caprica City. However, the ship that Roslin visits lacks an FTL drive, and the FTL capable part of President Roslin's caravan of refugee ships are forced to leave Botanical Cruiser and many other sublight ships behind when Cylon Raiders discover and attack the caravan. It is destroyed along with the other left behind sublight ships . 
===FTL Cruiser===
Another Botanical Cruiser, this one equipped with an FTL drive, survives the attacks and joins 's Fleet .
Several months following the escape from New Caprica, it is successfully escorted to the algae planet through a dangerous star cluster on the fifth and final jump, although it appears the biota did not fare so well in the presence of so much ionizing radiation .
It would survive the Battle of the Ionian Nebula and later jumped away when the Rebel baseship jumped in ahead of the sewage recycling freighter Demetrius (He That Believeth in Me, Guess What's Coming to Dinner).
The vessel would still remain with the fleet until the finding of Earth, where it, along with the other remaining vessels in the fleet would be sent into the sun. It is the last vessel seen by Adama as his Viper exits the launch tube .
== Notes ==
*The Botanical Cruiser was an homage to the Agro Ships from the original , which themselves were re-used models from the botanical spacecraft from the movie Silent Running, a Universal/MCA movie that special effects guru John Dykstra worked on a few years prior to the Original Series.
*There are also at least two vessels of similar design, though missing the botanical greenhouse domes, in Galactica's fleet seen orbiting New Caprica in Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II. One is destroyed in the Cloud 9 disaster. The surviving vessel is regularly seen in the fleet throughout the Fourth Season. It is unclear if these vessels are related.

Boxey (TOS-DE alternate)

Boxey is the son of who survives the Cylon Holocaust. 
During his early years in , Boxey resides aboard with his step-father, , following the death of his mother. This leaves Boxey without any known surviving blood relations, as is the case with numerous survivors throughout the fugitive fleet.
== 7351 ==
En route to , Boxey becomes one of the many denizens of the Fleet to share in the dream of , projected by delta-class telepath Xam as they traverse an unnamed storm zone. This concerns both Apollo and Boxey's step-aunt, (—).
After the events of Adama's Gambit, Boxey resumes attempting to find a place to play aboard Galactica, often being shooed from the engine room by Colonel and bouncing around to various parts of the active battlestar, including the . Following from the launch bay, he happens upon a funeral ceremony to commemorate the pilots lost, and realizes the sacrifice many make to protect them. Commander comes across the distraught boy and consoles him, escorting him to core command and promising him that Boxey will someday grow up to see Earth ().
Later, as they transit a black hole, Boxey is briefly seen cavorting about Galactica with his trusted robotic daggit, ( & ).
== 7358 ==
Entering his teens, Boxey is scared by the loss of Apollo following the Encounter of the Super Basestar, after yahrens of non-existent contact with their relentless Cylon pursuers ().
Following Apollo's unsanctioned rescue, Boxey discusses enlisting as a Colonial Warrior to Apollo, himself grappling with being forced into an advisory support role given a brain injury that prevents Apollo's active front-line defense of the Fleet. Apollo takes Boxey's gumption at becoming the warrior in an offensive way, lashing out at his step-son ().
The Cylons ambush the Fleet sectons into Apollo's return, leaving him little choice but to step back into a Viper cockpit, and give his life to destroy the dreaded Cylon super basestar. This leaves Boxey without a father figure, relying more on his adopted family of his grandfather and aunt, and Galactica's surviving crew ().

Boxey (TOS alternate)

This article covers the various depictions of the ' from the tie-in novelizations, comic books, and other media.
== Berkley Novelizations ==
=== Background ===
Boxey is an full-fledged orphan, his parents presumably killed during the final Cylon attack on the . His adoptive parents became Serina and respectively. 
As Boxey grew older, he came to hate that name and his extended family searched for a new name, given that they never knew his birth name. As a result, they christen him "Troy".
Given the deaths of both sets of parents, biological and adoptive, Troy had "put up barriers that no one could get through" for fear of loving someone, then losing them again.Ibid., viii. 
=== The Tombs of Kobol ===
Boxey is pleased at the fact that Serina and Apollo are to be married, however the marriage was short lived and he is forced to go through the death of his second mother.
=== The Living Legend ===
After Adama's death sometime well into the future, Troy is given command of and access to Adama's personal journals that have not been read by anyone before him. (Apollo is not given command due to his death sometime before Adama's.) When presented with Adama's logs after a pre-recorded introduction made by Adama, he first searches the logs about Commander Cain, who Adama credits for saving the entire .Ibid., v-viii.
== Dynamite Entertainment ==
There are at least four variations of Boxey from the Dynamite Entertainment comics, including:
* , the standard depiction;
* , 's son who had been murdered by the during the in an alternate reality;
* , 's ward in ;
* Troy Adama, from the series.
== Marvel comics ==
Boxey is the son of who, along with his daggit , frolics around the city while his mother hosts a newscast to cover the anticipated .
When the attack, Boxey and Muffey attempt to flee the rampant destruction. While Serina saves Boxey from falling debris of a nearby structure, Muffey does not share such fortune and, after a short search, Boxey and his mother flee the city ruins into the hillside, where they encounter Captain 's near the ruins of Commander home (). 
He makes a few fleeting appearances in the Marvel comics that occur after A Death in the Family.
== Maximum Press comics ==
Unlike his counterpart from other series, including the continuations, Boxey is not the nickname for Troy, but merely a version of his name, Box. 
As the Maximum Press comics follow the Original Series's official canon very strongly, Boxey is referred to as the biological son of Serina and the step-son of Apollo. In 7344, Sheba and Apollo are sealed and he has a step-brother named Cain, who is born that same yahren (War of Eden 1). 
By 7362, Box is a lieutenant and a Viper pilot. He is Captain Starbuck's wingman, and is one of three Warriors (the others being Starbuck and Colonel Boomer) who are part of the first Colonial landing party to Earth. During this mission, where Box almost loses his life by a dinosaur's maw, they discover the object later known as Adam's Ark (War of Eden 1-4).

Brain probe

The brain probe is a machine used by the as a means of extracting information from humans who are uncooperative.
The machine works by tapping the nerve impulses to and from the brain, and then storing them to computer memory. Two s are needed to run the machine, while a third Centurion remains to assist, in the event the subject requires restraint. The process is unpleasant to humans, but survivable with no apparent brain damage.
Vulpa orders the s to attach Cadet Cree's cortex to the brain probe, after which Cree is rendered unconscious .

Breach-sealing device

A breach-sealing device is a hand-operated tool equipped aboard Raptors in the event of an inner-hull breach.
It is designed to be operated one-handed, with a plunging button on the handle's side for activation. The seal-end features a removable paper-like protective covering that is removed before application. 
Following the massacre of Galactica's last Viper Mark VII squadron near Caprica, a piece of debris from an explosion by a missile-struck decoy penetrates Raptor 312's cabin, puncturing both the underbelly and Karl "Helo" Agathon's thigh, while damaging 312's fuel system in the process. Agathon is able to seal the breach with one such device stowed under his console before tending to his own wound .
== Notes ==
* The prop is a vacuum suction cup handling tool used for the lifting of glass, granite, or nonporous sheeting. Normally the handle plunging button would act as a quick release, and not as an activator.

Breeders Canyon

Breeders Canyon is a natural landmark on New Caprica.
It was carved out by a shallow, winding river that flows through the center of the valley and is surrounded by a forest. The greenery continues up the canyon walls until the peaks of the rocks, which appear to be barren sandstone. From Tyrol's comments, Breeders Canyon is apparently a long distance to walk from New Caprica City.
This canyon's riverbanks are selected as the rendezvous point between Galactica's Raptor team led by , and the New Caprica resistance led by Samuel Anders.
After Ellen Tigh tips off the Cylons in an effort to save her husband from further persecution, Cylon Centurions ambush the united team, taking the lives of a few insurgents, but are destroyed by a team of Marines under Gunnery Sergeant Erin Mathias .
