Pegasus Dwarf Irregular Galaxy or Peg DIG, a member of the Local Group of galaxies; Pegasus Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy or Pegasus II, a member of the Local Group of galaxies, a satellite of the Andromeda Galaxy; Pegasus Galaxy , a location in the science-fiction TV series Stargate Atlantis
The science fiction television series Stargate Atlantis takes place in the "Pegasus galaxy" and has shown images of an irregular galaxy. However, the franchise has not explicitly stated if it is the Irregular, Spheroidal, or an entirely fictional location, [6] but since the series claimed the Pegasus galaxy to be 3 million light years away, it is likely the irregular one.
The Pegasus Dwarf Spheroidal is a galaxy with mainly metal-poor stellar populations. [4] Its metallicity is [Fe/H] ≃ −1.3. [5] It is located at the right ascension 23h51m46.30s and declination +24d34m57.0s in the equatorial coordinate system (epoch J2000.0), and in a distance of 820 ± 20 kpc from Earth and a distance of 294 ± 8 kpc from the Andromeda Galaxy.

NGC 7619 is an elliptical galaxy located in the constellation Pegasus. [2] NGC 7619 and NGC 7626 [3] are the dominant and brightest members of the Pegasus galaxy cluster. [4] Both of them were discovered by William Herschel on September 26, 1785.
NGC 7735 is an elliptical galaxy in the constellation of Pegasus. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 9249 ± 36 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 136.41 ± 9.57 Mpc (∼445 million light-years). [1] It was discovered by British astronomer John Herschel on 5 September 1828. [2]
NGC 7769 is an unbarred spiral galaxy in the constellation of Pegasus. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 3855 ± 25 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 56.85 ± 4 Mpc (∼185 million light-years). [1] It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 18 September 1784. [2]
NGC 7625, or Arp 212, is a peculiar galaxy in the constellation of Pegasus.It was discovered on October 15, 1784, by William Herschel. [8] In his New General Catalogue (1888), J. L. E. Dreyer described it as pretty bright, considerably small, round, with a suddenly much brighter middle. [9]
