	Months after the attacks, ''Pegasus'' is still tracking a large Cylon fleet jumping from system to system with natural resources. When ''Pegasus'' jumps ahead to the Cylon's next projected position, it detects a large fleet. After communication is made, and authentications exchanged, it is revealed that the fleet is led by battlestar ''[[Galactica (TRS)\|Galactica]]'' (BS 75), believed by ''Pegasus''' crew to have been destroyed. Integration into the fleet doesn't go as smooth as both crews had hoped, with Admiral Cain quickly taking command, and integrating both crews despite having said otherwise. She also begins neglecting the civilian fleet, with many crucial supplies going to both battlestars instead. Cain also uses this time to share the information they've gathered about the Cylon fleet they've been tracking with ''Galactica''{{'\|s}} CO, [[William Adama]]. Several basestars, their support ships, and one unidentified ship is seen in the recon photographs.

	Given that ''Pegasus'' suffers over 90 Viper casualties with 32 being destroyed during its [[Battle of the Communications Relay\|attack on a Cylon communications relay]] {{TRS\|Razor}}, but is still able to field a sizable Viper complement at the time of encountering ''Galactica'', this suggests that its initial Viper loadout was very large.

The battle proceeds as planned, with both battlestars working in unison against two basestars, while fighters are used to draw the Raiders away from the targets. With the basestars occupied, a small joint force of Vipers converges on the Resurrection Ship, and destroys it.

	Following Admiral Cain's death, Jack Fisk is promoted to the rank of commander, and is instated as the ship's new CO.

''Pegasus'' is quickly outnumbered, and takes heavy damage, knocking out the FTL drive, and the ship's only means of escape. Realizing his mistake, Cmdr.

	After settling into his new command, Cmdr. Adama begins the search for a new XO and eventually settles on Kendra Shaw, out of a desire to demonstrate to the crew a measure of respect for Cain's legacy that he in fact does not share. ''Pegasus'' is called upon shortly thereafter to find a missing Raptor, sent out by ''Galactica'' to study a supernova remnant. Not long into the mission, DRADIS contact is made with ships that turn out to be [[Cylon War]]-era [[Raider_(RDM)#Cylon_War-era_Raider\|Raiders]] piloted by War-era [[Centurions]]. It is quickly determined that the missing Raptor crew were taken by these Cylons back to their [[Guardian basestar\|baseship]].
