Trivia
In this episode, the Nazi General Jodl was portrayed examining the V2 test in 1944. The 'real' General Jodl later signed the Nazi surrender to the Allies, thus ending the European part of WWII.

Goofs
The stock footage of the German fighters in flight has been reversed. All the insignia and numbers are backwards.

Quotes
Capt. Troy: Dillon, will you stop this machine before you kill us all.
Lt. Dillon: I don't suppose it flies, does it?
Jamie Hamilton: Flies? What's he on?
Dr. Donald Mortinson: Oh, it's a simple internal combustion engine that turns a drive shaft that rotates wheels.
Lt. Dillon: Talk about primitive. Haven't you people ever heard of anti-gravity travel?

Crazy credits
For some reason, the three-part opening episode is the only episode to display the series name of "Galactica 1980". All subsequent episodes display "Battlestar Galactica" as the series name.
