No. It is a single galaxy.
The galaxy cluster that contains the Milky Way is called the Local Group.
The Milky Way Galaxy is a spiral galaxy and open clusters are only found in spiral or irregular galaxies.
No, the Milky Way is a galaxy
The Milky Way galaxy is part of the Local Group, which is a collection of several galaxies. The Local Group, in turn, is a part of the larger Virgo Supercluster.
No, because our solar system is in the Milky Way GALAXY
The Andromeda Galaxy is a member of the Local Group, which is a small cluster of galaxies that includes our Milky Way galaxy and a few dozen other smaller galaxies. The Local Group is part of the Virgo Supercluster, which is a larger structure of galaxies in the universe.
Viewed from the Galactic North Pole, the Milky Way galaxy is moving anticlockwise.
The Milky Way is the galaxy in which our sun is located. The local group of stars is part of the Milky Way and therefore smaller than it is. The local Group of galaxies is a cluster of galaxies and therefore larger than the Milky Way.
The Milky Way Galaxy is the second largest galaxy, after Andromeda, in the Local Group. The Triangulum Galaxy (a.k.a., the Star Wars galaxy) is the third largest. The Local Group contains about 30 galaxies, including dwarf galaxies.
No, it is part of a cluster of 30 galaxies known as the local group. The two most massive members of the group are the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy.
a cluster of about 40 galaxies to which the milky way galaxy belongs Five popular Local Group galaxies: 1. Milky Way 2. Andromeda 3. Triangulum 4. Large Magellanic Cloud 5. Small Magellanic Cloud
No, the Milky Way does not contain "other" galaxies. The Milky Way is a galaxy unto itself. It has two small, irregular "sattelite" galaxies associated with it called the Large Magellanic and Small Magellanic Clouds, but they are not visible from the Northern Hemisphere in this epoch. The next nearest galaxy is Andromeda, which is about 2.5 million light years away. It is estimated that their are 100 billion galaxies in the known universe.
