During the series, Cylons and humans were bitter enemies - their enmity between the two is so great that not even their clothes can be shown together.

Battlestar Galactica fans, rejoice. The Experience Music Project’s Science Fiction Museum opened its Battlestar Galactica exhibit on Oct. 23. The exhibition features props and costumes from the original sci-fi series as well as its popular remake. Numerous stars from both the original and remade versions of Battlestar Galactica were on hand for the event and, along with exhibit curator Brooks Peck, answered questions on a panel.The opening of the Battlestar exhibition went head-to-head with the opening of the Harry Potter Exhibit at the nearby Pacific Science Center, which also features props and costumes the Harry Potter movie series. The coincidental openings begs an important question – in a fight, who would win: a Cylon or Lord Voldemort? We’ll let the fans decide.Photos by Victoria Holt and Sam CookPublished on October 25, 2010
