What if we bring the people to the food?
-
Put the people on Galactica.
-
Send the civilian ships with skeleton crew,
-
give them radiation meds.
-
Except that the radiation would fry the civvie ships' nav systems.
-
They wouldn't be able to see squat on dradis.
-
There wouldn't even be a way to calculate a jump out.
-
It's worse than that.
-
Once you jump in, the light is so blinding you begin to drift.
-
And before you can get your bearings, you're over there.
-
APOLLO: No visual contact, instruments blinded by radiation.
-
They'd get lost, they'd burn up.
