True distance of the Pegasus Galaxy

[waykins]

Does anyone have any idea as to the true distance of this galaxy, eg. In one episode of Atlantis McKays says they are 320 million light years from Earth but in the Omnipedia it states that it is between 3 and 4 million light years.

The "real" Pegasus Dwarf Galaxy (there are two, actually) is 3.5 million light years away, give or take. McKay was just using hyperbole to get his point across that Zelumka (or whomever that was, like McKay could be bothered to remember names) was stuck eating his favourite food two days in a row.

The Pegasus Dwarf Irregular Galaxy and the Pegasus Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy. I believe they are talking about the one Irregular Galaxy, and is located approximately 3.26 to 3.5 million lightyears.
