What is the largest galaxy in the local Milky Way?
The ONLY galaxy in the "local milky way" is the Milky Way itself. If you're asking what the largest galaxy in the local group is, the Andromeda Galaxy is the largest by size but the Milky Way may be slightly larger by mass. It's definitely one of those two by any reasonable criterion, though.
The Andromeda Galaxy is a member of the?
It is apart of the Local Group.
What does Milky Way mean?
The section of the night sky where you view the milky way galaxy edge on. There are so many stars in this part of the night sky that it look like a path of spilled milk - therefore it is called the milky way., The Milky Way is the galaxy in which the solar system is located. It is a barred spiral galaxy that is part of the local group of galaxies. It is one of billions of galaxies in the observable universe.
What is the relationship between the moon and the milky way?
The moon and the milky way are both astronomical objects which can be seen by looking at the night sky. Other than that, they do not have any particular connection.
How many other small galaxies are there in the Andromeda galaxy?
There are no smaller galaxies in the Andromeda galaxy. In the Local group of galaxies to which Andromeda and the Milky Way are part of, there are around 30 smaller galaxies,
Your galaxy is a part of a group What is the name of the group and the two galaxies in it?
The local group of galaxies that include our Milky Way is called the "Local Group".The local group of galaxies that include our Milky Way is called the "Local Group".The local group of galaxies that include our Milky Way is called the "Local Group".The local group of galaxies that include our Milky Way is called the "Local Group".
Does the Milky Way contain the local group?
No. The local group contains the Milky Way and a few other galaxies.
Is Local Group bigger than the Milky Way?
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.
What is the name of the group of galaxies the milky way is part of?
local group
Is it true that in the milky way it is a member of the local group?
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.
The cluster that the milky way galaxy is in is called?
The Local Group
Is the Milky Way in a cluster?
The Milky Way is part of the Local Group Cluster, part of the Virgo Super Cluster.
This cluster of galaxies is made up of about twenty-five galaxies including the milky way?
The galaxy cluster that contains the Milky Way is called the Local Group.
The Milky Way and 16 other galaxies compose what?
local group
Why is Milky Way included in the local group?
The "Local Group" refers to a group of nearby galaxies, that are gravitationally bound (much like a galaxy itself, a star cluster, or a solar system). This local group includes our own galaxy - the Milky Way - as well as several galaxies in a diameter of about 10 million light-years. The Milky Way is included because it is inside this group, and gravitationally bound by it.
Is the Milky Way isolated?
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.
What other Local Group galaxy is your Milky Way similar to?
The local group is a collection of galaxies. It is not a galaxy on it's own.
