The Battle of Molecay was a major engagement between Cylon forces and the Fifth Fleet (including the battlestar Pegasus), approximately two yahrens prior to its miraculous discovery by Galactica and her civilian Fleet after the destruction of the Colonies.

This fleet, under the command of Commander Cain, was apparently destroyed (The Living Legend, Part I).

Cain and Pegasus survive the encounter, and later meet up with the rag-tag Fleet being lead by Galactica, where Cain works to incite an attack on Cylon forces at Gamoray, against Adama's wishes. Pegasus again disappears, apparently destroyed in the battle (The Living Legend, Part II).
