Summary
DescriptionFornax dwarf galaxy.jpg |
English: The Fornax dwarf galaxy is one of our Milky Way’s neighbouring dwarf galaxies. The Milky Way is, like all large galaxies, thought to have formed from smaller galaxies in the early days of the Universe. These small galaxies should also contain many very old stars, just as the Milky Way does, and a team of astronomers has now shown that this is indeed the case. This image was composed from data from the Digitized Sky Survey 2.
Italiano: La Galassia Nana della Fornace è una galassie satellite della Via Lattea. L'immagine è stata ottenuta nell'ambito del Digitized Sky Survey 2. La posizione dei principali ammassi globulari visibili nell'immagine e legati alla Galassia Nana della Fornace è indicata attraverso delle note. Sono inoltre presenti dei collegamenti a loro immagini ottenute con il telescopio spaziale Hubble. |
