#I feel like apollo adama and captain archer would get along great tbh

Ay, what the heck, after rewatching Star Trek Enterprise my brain created a kind of funny crack(?) theory that the glowy ship from Battlestar is related to the Temporal Cold War in Enterprise. I mean, the glowy people kidnap the Galacticans, Daniels kidnaps Capt. Archer (and Enterprise), they're from "advanced civilizations" with impressive technology but need people from "lesser" times/civilizations to do their dirty work for them. Also the episodes at the beginning of Enterprise season 4 where Archer and Enterprise are yeeted back to the past to stop aliens from hijacking WW2 and creating a Time War reminds me a LOT of the episode of Battlestar where the glowy ship people kidnap Apollo and stick him on Terra to prevent a nuclear war there. Enterprise and the Galactica even both have to directly intervene at point blank range!

Idk, I just think it's a funny idea, I could write a fanfic about this.

So I was trying to remember stuff about Battlestar Galactica because I haven’t seen it since I was like 15 and most of what I remember from the episodes are the pilot (which we just rewatched and I’ve seen several times), the Fire in Space episode because I thought it was cool (?!?) and that episode where Apollo gets sent to Terra in disguise to try and prevent a nuclear war or something.

Anyway I was thinking about that last one and trying to remember how Apollo ended up disguised and on Terra in the first place and accidentally unlocked a core memory of the show which was THIS WEIRD THING:

the FUDGE was this thing and what were these people on about. why weren’t they more helpful. why does their ship look Like That. why is it glowing?! why did they keep kidnapping people?!
