Earth is the home of the lost Thirteenth Tribe in the original series of Battlestar Galactica.
The lost Thirteenth Tribe settles on the planet Earth, its settlers having departed long ago from Kobol after the same environmental cataclysm which caused the Exodus of the Twelve Tribes and made Kobol uninhabitable. As stated in the Book of the Word, the Thirteenth Tribe left opposite the other Twelve Tribes, the information of their destination residing in the tomb of the Ninth Lord of Kobol (Lost Planet of the Gods).
Transmissions from Earth -- i.e. the Apollo Moon Landing -- were picked up by Captain Apollo in the Celestial chamber on an obsolete Gamma frequency, though the copy of the transmission was destroyed in the attack on the Cylon basestar (The Hand of God).
Due to the discovery of several planets inhabited by Humans of the Thirteenth Tribe, especially Terra, and the Eastern Alliance, it must be assumed that Earth is very advanced in terms of technology, and may be more than a match for the Cylons.
