ATTENTION SPOILER!!!! lookin' daybreack part 2 when galactica go inside the colony and alpha team climb down the ship, galactica also don't seems so big too

[newman]

Yeah, and compared to Jupiter the Earth doesn't seem big, either. The colony is frakkin' big. Of course the Galactica will seem small next to it

[Baschl]

Just found this size comparison of the colony and the BigG, but don´t know if these are official pictures:

Beware of Spoilers for the series finale! :

for me the colony also seems a little too small  , but on the blog is an explanation for this

[torc]

newman i just want to say the theseus size for me is correct  maybe you can compare in an image the dimensions of the galactica and the theseus near a little viper    in this way everyone can really realize the effective size of him

[StarSlayer]

Right,  please keep in mind that not all folks have had th' opportunity t' see season four.  In th' future please restrain yourselves from blurtin' out spoilers in a thread where viewers might not expect them.  If you do feel the irreconcilable need t' discuss them usin' spoiler tags or addin' a warnin' would help folks from bein' taken unawares.

Carry on.

[newman]

I'd just like to add this. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Because Slayer's sentences don't have enough of those

[Baschl]

I´m really sorry. forgot about that, will never happen again

What? He wasn't talking to you.

[torc]

I'M SORRY TOO...

Will we be able to land on and launch from the Theseus on the first release?

And will we see her in action?

[colecampbell666]

1) Can we launch from the tubes. - We're working on that. Hopefully.
2) Can we combat land on the pods. - Again, working on it.
3) Will the nuke tubes open? - Yes.
4) Will the guns rise up out of their resting positions when fighting the enemy? - Probably not in R1. In later releases, most likely. In R1 they'll already be up in their combat positions.
5) How big is it exactly?

Length: 1072 meter + 28 meter the nose antenna array.
Width: 461 meter on the widest point of the pods.
Height: 132 meter from the lowest point of the pods to the highest point of the spine.
Internal height of the pods: higher = 18 meter, lower = 9,5 meter.
Landing length of the pods: 544 meter.
Launchtube length: minimum 91 meter, maximum 97 meter.

It looks beautiful.

Much kudos to Starslayer and Meleardil.
