Best Answer

These are called Globular Clusters.

They are not galaxies but instead are dense groups of stars that are part of a galaxy.

Our Milky Way galaxy is estimated to have about 180 Globular Clusters in it. Many of them are near the center of our galaxy but some also orbit at the outer edges.

For comparison, a Globular Cluster can contain 100's of thousands of stars and up to 1 million stars. Our Milky Way galaxy contains all those Globular Clusters plus over 100 billion more stars.
