Battlestar Galactica Features Classic Science Fiction Themes

By Audie C. Bosco


There are a number of science fiction franchises that have managed to hold on to popularity for many years, including Battlestar Galactica. The original TV show by this name was broadcast in the late 1970's and though it did not last for many seasons, it did become quite a hit amongst devoted fans. Science fiction is a polarizing genre because some folks are uninterested by the idea of delving into thoughts of what a futuristic universe would be like and what alien races humans may be interacting with. For fans of this genre, however, there are few things as exciting as a great television program, video game, movie, or book that takes the mind boggling ideas of science fiction and makes them feel real through believable characters and great plot lines.

Humans have been attacked and sent away from their home planet in Battlestar Galactica by the Cylon who are actually robot-like people who were made by humans in the past. There are wonderful links to deep human emotion in the story line which keep fans attached to the characters. This is a critical concept of all science fiction; in spite of moving into uncharted territory and visions of what the future might be like, it keeps an emotional human element that fans know cannot be changed by time or technology.

There are lots of spaceships that show up throughout Battlestar Galactica, including large transport vessels that are home to thousands of people and small fighter jets. Fans of science fiction are certianly in seeing new ways of imagining travel in space and dogfights between high speed space ships. Even though today's technology has only started to barely scratch the surface of what spaceflight might eventually become, science fiction artists are able to create elaborate concepts of how space travel could work one day.

Fans that would like to truly experience what it would be like to exist in this kind of science fiction universe can do so by playing video games that use the same characters, worlds, and vehicles found in the television show. It is exciting to be able to interact with the characters and fight the antagonists in this way.

Battlestar Galactica has received a well-deserved place in the history of science fiction franchises and continues to gain fans. You ought to try playing modern video games that incorporate the stories from BG in order to further enjoy this exciting story.
