Apollo (Battlestar Galactica)

Apollo is the name of several characters in the Battlestar Galactica universe:

Original Continuity

Main article: Captain Apollo

Apollo is the son of Commander Adama & Ila. He is played by Richard Hatch (who coincidentally also portrays Tom Zarek in the new Battlestar Galactica). Apollo has a sister Athena, also a Warrior, and a brother Zac who was killed in a Cylon ambush prior to their attack on the 12 colonies. Apollo's mother was killed in the attack on the colonies.

New Continuity

Main article: Lee Adama

In the new Battlestar Galactica (re-imagining), Apollo is no longer the character's name but rather his call sign (although Laura Roslin calls him 'Captain Apollo' anyway, as "it has a nice ring to it"). His real name is Lee Adama and he is played by the actor Jamie Bamber.

Also in Battlestar Galactica (re-imagining), Apollo is the name of one of the Lords of Kobol (one of the Colonials' gods). Apollo is the son of Zeus, and Lord of the Hunt and Lord of Healing.

Main article: Arrow of Apollo

Lord Apollo is symbolized by the Arrow of Apollo, a religious artifact brought from Caprica to Kobol.
