@@BladeOfLight16 in a sense both of you are right. It would not be until the day that he dies that Londo would finally see what a Vorlon could look like. And it took the form of Adira Tyree.

Londo: what the hell is a Big Mac????

[@Bobaklives]

This is also why the first doctor (in the pilot/movie) has a look of awe when he sees inside the suit to save Kosh: “There are moments in your life when everything crystallizes and the whole world reshapes itself right down to its component molecules. And everything changes. I have looked upon the face of a Vorlon... Laurel. And nothing is the same anymore.”

[@Hylanvahr]

The lesson here: When commanding a space station, it never hurts to have a Space Jesus around to save your butt now n' then.

[@p.s6742]

To call Kosh Space Jesus is an understatement of his true identity. He appears differently, according to the religious beliefs of anyone who witnessed his appearance.

More like an angel in the case of Kosh

Too bad Kosh was the only Vorlon who didn't suck.

Babylon 5's adherence to Newtonian physics really changed the game in the 90's. Star Trek never had set pieces or effects this great until B5 set the bar.

[@demarcusfaulkner7411]

They are two entirely different franchises

[@zorkmid1083]

Star Trek went with assumption that space farers have long since dealt with these inconveniences (e.g., gravity plating). I guess it helped them move the story along.

[@glennwilliams2950]

@Ruus Hardy What is the salad and what is the steak. I think TNG is a T-bone, B5 is a porterhouse, DS9 is filet mignon. All streaks, all great (I prefer the filet personally) but each is good in it’s on way and when the mood hits you could eat any. Oh Voyager is a 2 dollar diner steak. Tough to get through but could fill you up if you don’t have anything else.

[@JLovrak]

Babylon 5 had such amazing writing, I just wish they’d relied more on model work than CGI. That’s the one thing that’s really dated it compared to Star Trek from the same era.

[@TheShadowForgeStudio]

It may have been Londo saw the squid like appearance we see briefly when they were trying to remove the second Kosh.

[@orutakawatenga8820]

The one time everybody saw a "naked" Vorlon & no one knew.

This was epic at the time

[@AmySox]

This was the reveal that we'd all been waiting to see. Apparently, Centauri don't have beings similar to angels in their mythos. That's why Londo saw nothing. Meanwhile, other races saw the equivalent of the "handmaidens" to their particular gods (e.g. the Narn saw G'Lan, not G'Quon). And no, the angel Sheridan saw was NOT Gabriel, or a similar "named" angel.

@@hebrewyisraeliteyahawadahite No its confirmed in the show that for some reason the Vorlon did not interfere in the Centauri world its also confirmed in the books. They don't tell why they didn't but for some reason they didn't which is why he sees nothing.

[@SabreKen]

@@willardfasto4494 huh I always thought the reason why Londo saw nothing was because of his involvement with the Shadows, but I guess Vorlon non-involvement would be the same thing really

[@miafillene4396]

[@williamwaha3193]

During the previous Shadow War , the Centauri served the Shadows not the Vorlon . Because of their Ancient Alliance with the Shadows Londo could not see the Vorlon out its encounter suit . The Shadows had a base on Narn but the ' Mind Walkers ' drove the Shadows out , leading to the destruction of the Narn Telepaths . The reason as to why the Centauri attacked and enslaved the Narns was because the Narns were the enemy of the Shadows . The Narns at the time were Farmers , an agrarian society not a space faring race . This is why the Vorlons are known on Narn and why they can see the Vorlons out of their encounter suits .
