It was the dawn of the third age of mankind. Ten years after the Earth Minbari war. The Babylon project was dream giving form. It's goal to prevent another war by creating a place where humans and aliens could work out their differences peacefully. It's a port of call. Home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanders. Humans and aliens wrap in two million five hundred thousand tons of spinning metal, all alone in the night. It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last best hope for peace. This is the story of last of the Babylon stations. The year is 2258. The name of the place is Babylon 5.

The best way to watch Babylon 5 is to either start with the special edition of the gathering or skip it and go to midnight on the firing line. Then just watch the show in either broadcast order or lurkers guide order. In the beginning is recommended but only after season 4 or right before the series finale. Everything else is unnecessary and should be skipped or saved for last.
