The '''Space Park''' is an [[FTL]]-capable civilian passenger liner that mangages escape the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|destruction of the Twelve Colonies]] to join the [[the Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] ([[Miniseries]]).
 
After the discovery and settlement of [[New Caprica]], the ship is one of the few to remain in orbit (its shape may make it impractical or impossible to land). It manages to escape the [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] blockade of the planet along with battlestars ''[[Galactica (RDM)|Galactica]]'' and ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' ([[Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II]]).
 
The ''Space Park'' is among the first ships taken through the star cluster towards the [[algae planet]] ([[The Passage]]) and is among the first ships to jump into the [[Ionian nebula]] before losing power ([[Crossroads, Part II]]).
 
The ship is severely damaged by two missile strikes in the [[Battle of the Ionian Nebula]], but survives and is still capable of flight ([[He That Believeth In Me]]). A few days later, the damaged portion of the ring itself is being repaired ([[Six of One]]).
 
== Additional Information ==
 
:''The following information was previously available on the SciFi Channel website. It should be noted that information from that website, while being official, is unreliable and maybe contradicted on screen:''
 
*The ''Space Park'' is of [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Libris|Libran]] registry.
*Its enormous ring section was designed in the days when artificial gravity was too expensive to utilize on a commercial ship of that size.
*This passenger liner design was so successful that it was adapted for scientific and military uses by replacing passenger accommodation with laboratories, auxiliary power generators, and computer cores.
