Tauron City: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 00:13, 6 May 2021

Minos, colloquially known to Capricans by the nickname Tauron City^[1], is a prominent metropolis on the planet Tauron.

It is home to the Vergis Corporation whose CEO Tomas Vergis helped design the meta-cognitive processor that was eventually stolen by Graystone Industries for the Cylon prototype (CAP: "Know Thy Enemy").

Notes

In Greek mythology, Minos was the first king of the island of Crete, son of Zeus and Europa.
During the "Caprica is burning" monologue in "The Plan" there is a city that looks remarkably similar to Tauron City. However, it is assumed to be a city on Libran because that world is mentioned when the shot of that city is seen.

-* According to [http://twitter.com/SergeGraystone/status/10184515614 Serge's Twitter Account] the native name of the city is actually '''Minos'''. "Tauron City" is a designation that is mainly used by Capricans.

-* Tauron City was originally assumed by viewers to be Tauron's capital (analogical to [[Caprica City]]). Later, Serge's Twitter account [http://twitter.com/SergeGraystone/status/10545200174 stated] the capital to be [[Hypatia]]. This is comparable to the fact that New York City is not the capital of New York.
