Does anyone have a timeline of when the Events of Kobol happened? I think in at then end of season one they said that they left the planet about 3000 years before the events of Battlestar Galactica. Is this the time that Earth was settled as well or did they leave before the twelve tribes? If Earth was settled during this time, then the events of Battlestar Galactica cannot be happening today, but thousands of years ago.

Here's a good timeline: http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Timeline_%28RDM%29Originally posted by Daedalus-304We're whalers on the moon,

I'm really not trying to be snarky here, but I think it'd be easier to think of the show as, almost literally, "timeless." Inasmuch as dates for show events go, I much prefer to keep them relative to each other and not try to put a "real world" timeline on anything.
All of this has happened before, and all of this will happen again. Or something.

It seems like according to the timeline, the events in the show cannot be happing today, but perhaps thousands of years ago.
Also does it seem like 2000 years is too short for the events of Kobol to be mythological to some, especially for a technologically advance society.sigpicComment

Even events only dating back 1000 years on Earth are lost in myth. Given that the colonials went through a sort of "Dark Age" after settling it's easily believable.Music Profile: 83710 Songs --- 3714 Artists --- 7051 AlbumsComment
