Some trivia about the original battlestar galactica series.

Some peolle suspect the massive crashed starship found on theplanrt where count Iblis was encountered might have been the battlestar Pegasus as the wrecked ship was described as being "as big as a battlestar".

The ship on the planet with Iblis was not the Pegasus.

There had been scripts written for a second season of the original battlestar galactica which tragically nefer happened. One episode would heal with the Pegasus returning along with captain Cain.

This rules out the wrecked ship being the Pegasus.

An early bible had the Galactica finding a derelict ship floating somewhere in space. I wonder if that concept developed into this concept...

While we're at it I have a question: we're the Cylons robots, lizard-men, or some sort of cyborg? In the TV show they lion like robots, & most people today say they were. But most contemporary marketing material called them lizard men. Cyborgs would be a nice half-way point, & a scene in the pilot's novelization has a Cylon undergoing surgery to add a third brain, which sounds like something a culture of cyborgs might do.

The body found in the ship was likely Iblis' old one killed in the wreck,  he may have possessed a survivors body and transformed it into his own likeness.
