No, they haven't shown her in earth's orbit.  We've seen the tracking
shot, we've seen her photos, we haven't actually seen her flying in
Earth's orbit.  Everything is logical inference on the viewer's part,
but we *definitely* have NOT been shown that Starbuck has really been
to Earth.

It's a Schroedinger's Cat sort of a situation.  Until we actually see
Starbuck actually flying her Viper in Earth's orbit, we don't know if
the cat is alive (ie: Starbuck was actually there) or dead (whatever
force saved her may be frakking with her mind).  So far, the pictures,
the spit-clean Viper, the pictures, the intercranial GPS device,
they're all different sides of the box holding the cat.

LORELAI: I am so done with plans. I am never, ever making one again.  
It never works.  I spend the day obsessing over why it didn't work 
and what I could've done differently.  I'm analyzing all my shortcomings 
when all I really need to be doing is vowing to never, ever make a plan 
ever again, which I'm doing now, having once again been the innocent 
victim of my own stupid plans.  God, I need some coffee.
