It is, after all, historical fiction.

For one thing, Pegasus is only 4,000 light-years across. However, in "Adrift," McKay's hyperdrive is said to have a maximum range of about 2,000 light-years. With that sort of range, they could get to just about any planet in Pegasus; even if they were at the very edge of the galaxy, they well over a quarter of all planets in Pegasus. However, the map showing the planets that they can reach with the hyperdrive has less than a dozen planets.Robert Jastrow (self-proclaimed agnostic): "For the scientist who has lived by his faith in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He has scaled the mountains of ignorance; he is about to conquer the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there for centuries."
