Apple has ordered a new unnamed science fiction series from "Battlestar Galactica" showrunner Ronald D. Moore, according to Deadline.

Few details about the series were offered, but it is said to take place in a world where the space race of the Cold War era never ended. It marks Apple's third scripted effort. No premiere date for the series was set.
