Then of course there's the question of time. Did this black hole catapult him through space or time as well? If the black hole simply propelled them to the other side of the galaxy, the reference at the end of the episode to the fact that the silent one is long dead could suggest at the very least that your Battlestar Galactica adaptations take place in the near future. I've just gone back over the prison scenes in your adaptation and I just noticed Starbuck's observation about Saturn was that it had 'a strange set of rings to it'. Was that just his opinion of the drawing or hadn't he seen rings around a planet before? In the pilot at least one of the Colonies had a ring system on a par with Saturn's as I recall. Hope you don't mind the nitpicking.
