Umm VOR stands for VHF Omnidirectional Range...it's a way to tell your location in relation to a radio beacon....what you're talking about is an Artificial Horizon or AH.
Total ROFL - At 1:21 it shows the VOR. Technically there is no horizon in space so I cant work out why you would need it. If you move to a planet with a gravitational field then maybe you get a horizon if your flying close to the ground. How often does this happen???? So a VOR moving as it did in space is just pointless
You have to remember , this was the 70's. Back then this was a "cockpit electronic thingy" and looked cool. Looking cool in the 70's always came before believability. Of course, if you want to stretch it out you could say it was using the Galactica as it's horizon point, so the vipers always knew their relationship in space to their mother ship. ;)
@Syble4 Vipers could fly in a planets atmosphere so VOR would be handy..makes you wonder about most other Sci Fi films, say in Star Wars or Star Trek, the space ships always seem to be the 'right way up' in relation to each other & have a top & bottom in design.
Even at the age of 10 when this series started I thought it was pointless and inaccurate to have open cowlings on the front of the engines with turbines inside. There is no oxygen in space so the open ducts with turbines where pointless. Rocket engines are suppose to be enclosed systems but they 'LOOKED COOL', that was the point. The original Viper was and still is my favorite ship. The original series rules.
Starbuck and Apollo rocked!!! The new battlestar galactica sucks!!! how the fuck can they make Starbuck a woman!!! you gotta be fucking kidding me!! DIPSHITS!!!!
You are so correct! They used lasers in this series and in the new series, their handguns use bullets! What kind of shit is that? For a civilization suppose to be so advance, they still use bullets? Don't even get me started on the Starbuck a woman thing! They even messed up the creation of the cylons! All wrong! Yeah, they screwed it up big time.
as cheesy as it is its pretty cool. Funny thing is i was in the navy till 2005 and this and the new BSG both remind me of being in the navy on deployment on the 2 amphipious assault ships i was stationed on carried marines and helios plus harrier jump jets so both BSG rock for me.
Cool! =D

I like the new BSG. It's interesting to see projectiles being used in space instead of lasers. The battles look awesome with the flak and whatnot.
But the classic is awesome as well, and I like the design of the classic Galactica more than the new Galactica.

So true, i mean 'faceman' in the cockpit, hell yeah!
I like the new bsg rather than the old on, but that's my opinion.

There is technically an Horizon, in space its called the eclliptic plane. Its the flat disk of the orbits of the planets around a star.

I know. GINO ruined everything. They killed Battlestar Galactica. Classic BSG is the best, though!
