Kate Vernon Battlestar Galactica
She appeared as Ellen Tigh, wife of Saul Tigh in the American military science fiction television series Battlestar Galactica. Battlestar Galactica follows the last surviving humans from the Twelve Colonies of Kobol after they are annihilated by the Cylons. In contrast to typical space operas, there are no humanoid aliens (the antagonists are man-made Cylon androids). Instead of lasers, the principal armaments utilized by both military forces are bullets, rail guns, and missiles.
Stories also depict the theme of the human-Cylon war being driven by perpetual cycles of hatred and violence, as well as religion. The last episodes of Battlestar Galactica center on Earth, a new planet populated by early humans and humanoid Cylons. An earlier episode revealed that the “true” Earth that the Colonials had searched for during their years in space had been inhabited thousands of years previously by a previous form of humanoid Cylon.
