Travelling through space on the Battlestar Galactica, the survivors make a detour to the planet Carillon in order to stock up on supplies.

But Baltar, the leader of the victorious Cylons is determined to finish his mission of destruction. Under the command of Adama, the intrepid crew of the Galactica lead the Colonial survivors through battles with enemies old and new, tackle internal strife and starvation, while always fighting to outmanoeuvre Baltar and the pursuing Cylon forces. And all the time Galactica is heading deeper and deeper into space, searching for the Thirteenth Tribe of Man "on a shining planet known as Earth".
