Why?

The show itself implies the passage of quantities of time, not just days or hours but what could equate to weeks or months between the episodes. Adama notes time passage several times in his log. You can assume nothing of note happened between, or you can assume there were adventures besides them in between. Neither would necessarily be incorrect, 1970s TV being what it was. Take Long Patrol for instance: that viper didn't just appear one week, obviously there had been a breather time where such a machine could be outfitted or completed with the colonials limited resources, yet it's set in the first 5 weeks of the series.
