oh so nice to be mistaken!
I vote for option 2 then.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

There are six Galactica locations that can be damaged. There are two additional damage tokens, for Fuel and Food. It will therefore take between five and seven hits to destroy Galactica.

Research Lab cannot be damaged. Nor can Communications, or Sickbay or the Brig.

Helo escapes punishment by -- did you just open fire on Galactica?!? Well, that got their attention at least. Damage is:
Hangar Deck
1 Food
You might like to stay out there, Helo. You won't be able to launch again until the Hangar Deck is fixed.
The Cylons are greatly impressed by Helo's example and follow his lead. The basestars open fire! Once again, we have Ryan in the guest role as toaster roller.
Basestar 1: 7. Hit!
Basestar 2: 3. Miss.
My boy provides a little something for everyone, as the first basestar takes out:
1 Fuel
The Food and Fuel tokens are now removed from the game. Any future hits will do location damage.
Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Helo's turn. Apollo has opted to draw 2 Green for his variable draw. Apollo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Sector 3: Scar, 1 Raiders, 2 Heavy RaidersIs that 1 Raider? Or 1 RSV? I might have put that one in the wrong column.

Simmer down, human, you have one more jump to go, assuming you make it to 8 distance on 3 Fuel.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Matt Mercer, voice actor and DM for the show Critical Role (where he and a bunch of fellow voice actors play D&D 5th Ed), recently did an episode dedicated to giving DM Advice and teaching some newbies how to play since he was down a few players at a critical point in the game's storyline: [link]
ETA: Having watched the game portion now, it never ceases to amaze me how quickly adventurers, even when played by newbies, turn to arson as a solution.
