	* The ship's name (and the fate of its passengers) is a faint reference to a story from Homer's ''[[w:Odyssey\|The Odyssey]]''. The hero's ship is trapped between the [[w:Scylla\|Scylla]] and [[w:Charybdis\|Charybdis]], a group of monsters that attack Odysseus's ship and crew. The phrase "between the Scylla and Charybdis" is an expression denoting a situation where moving from one danger places one closer to another danger. The battlestar ''Pegasus'' serves as the "Charybdis" in the story of the ''Scylla'''s passengers, who cannot escape from either ship, either being pressed into service on the battlestar or left stranded and lost on the civilian ships.		* The ship's name (and the fate of its passengers) is a faint reference to a story from Homer's ''[[w:Odyssey\|The Odyssey]]''.
