koboltt

koboltt is a fictional planet appearing in the Battlestar Galactica franchise. It is depicted as the homeworld of the Cylons, the primary antagonists of the series. Koboltt is a lush, Earth-like planet with a breathable atmosphere, diverse flora and fauna, and abundant natural resources. In the original series, Koboltt was portrayed as a relatively peaceful and advanced society, the cradle of humanoid civilization. Its inhabitants were the progenitors of both humans and Cylons, a fact that becomes a central theme in the reimagined series.

In the reimagined Battlestar Galactica, Koboltt takes on a more complex role. It is still the ancestral homeworld of humanity and the Cylons, but it is also a place of great spiritual significance. The planet is home to ancient ruins and sacred sites, believed to hold the key to understanding the true nature of the Cylons and the future of humanity. The search for Koboltt becomes a driving force for the surviving human fleet, as they seek refuge and a new beginning. The planet's significance is tied to the concept of a "Thirteenth Tribe" of humans who left Koboltt for Earth millennia ago. The Cylons, believing themselves to be the rightful inheritors of Koboltt, often engage in conflict with humans over its control and significance. The appearance and environment of Koboltt vary between the two series, with the original depicting it as a more barren and ancient world, while the reimagined series presents it as a vibrant and fertile planet.
