Revealing mistake: When Starbuck veers off the shot of his thumb and the flight stick is reversed. The "IM" button is on the left and the red "FIRE" button is on the right, opposite from where they normally are. Sharp eyes can even see the word "TURBO" is reversed before Starbuck's thumb covers it. (00:03:18)
Battlestar Galactica (1978)
1 revealing mistake in Experiment in Terra - chronological order
Starring: Lorne Greene, Dirk Benedict, Herbert Jefferson Jr., Richard Hatch
Saga of a Star World (1) - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When Baltar turns to face the two setting suns, we see the lower one at the left has what could be a boat in its reflection on the water. The higher one on the right is over a mountainous area on the horizon. The next shot is of Baltar in close-up, then the next returns to the horizon to show us Baltar's view, which shows just ONE setting sun. The one on the left has vanished though there is room enough for it to have been seen in this shot. (00:40:15)
Commander Adama: Mr. President, a wall of unidentified craft is closing in on the fleet.
Baltar: Possibly a Cylon welcoming commitee.
Commander Adama: Sir, may I suggest we launch a 'welcoming commitee' of our own?
Trivia: The pilot crests (worn by Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedict, among others) on their collars were actually U.S. Army Military Intelligence Class A uniform crests.
