Does Firefly shares a planet with BSG? You decide.

I like to do a little extra geeky connecting the dots, and consider BSG to be a bit of a far-off sequel to Firefly. Firefly is the old west, with BSG being the post-modern 21st century equivalent.
The fleet on BSG is looking for Earth-that-was. The Core worlds on FF became the 12 colonies on BSG, with the outer colonies being the border worlds from FF.
If I really feel like a geek indulgence, I think of Cowboy Bebop as the 1940's era in-between. The Caprica movie (or spin-off, if it makes it) will essentially be the 80's).
I do the same thing with The Terminator and Matrix trilogies.

Perhaps they had revived Project Orion ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Orion_%28nuclear_propulsion%29) in order to get big colony ships off the ground?

Or picture this. BSG finds earth at the last episode of season 4 (series finale) and they find it deserted. Everyone left 500 years ago to find a new worlds (our firefly universe) because the earth got used up!

Anybody who's seen BSG will have looked through a window and seen none other than Serenity herself Landing. It's Official. BSG steals stuff from Firefly. EVEN if firefly came after BSG (I don't do chronology) Same goes for the planet. Firefly is the god of all sci-fi, and this even beats some of the cooler star trek, star wars, X-series etc etc. Firefly Wins. It's like the trump card. Play that, you win. For ever.
Way I see it really.
Anybody who disagrees with any of this violently can do so. But no matter what you do, "You can't take the sky from me".
