That's, um... a very specific date in the near future. Care to elaborate?

While I'm there, let's watch the entire 4 years of the travels of NX-01

I do remember the line from the BSG Miniseries where they are talking about caclulating their first jump. Something like, "If we are off by even a few percentage points, we could end up in the middle of the sun!" and I was thinkijng, "Like, you'd be off in your calculations by a whole percentage point?" I mean, I know there's no networked computers allowed on the galactica, but a calculator should be able to handle it.
Edit: Though, now in retrospect, I imagine a first jump calculation would involve estimating mass, which is going to be imprecise. Probably after your first jump you can infer your mass from your location.

Based on how Riker described it, it sounded like it was already broken, and it was phasing in and out, kinda like a flickering light, and stopped “flickering” once it was partially inside of the asteroid, where it finally materialized. This was after Riker and Pressman had left in an escape pod.
Frankly, when I watched this episode when it first aired, it really disturbed me.

The well preserved bodies from the vacuum really sold the creep factor.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
