The observable Universe has at least a hundred billion galaxies. The galaxies closest to us are part of the so-called "Local Group" (that is, the group that includes our galaxy); this Local Group includes our own galaxy (i.e., the Milky Way), the Andromeda Galaxy, the Triangulum Galaxy, and about 50 dwarf galaxies such as the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud. Then, of course, there are hundreds or thousands of galaxies "near-by" as distances between galaxies go, but outside of our Local Group.

The Milky Way Galaxy and about 17 other galaxies within 3 million light-years of the Milky Way Galaxy are collectively known as what?
The Milky Way Galaxy and about 17 other galaxies within 3 million light-years are collectively known as the Local Group. This group includes galaxies such as Andromeda (M31), Triangulum (M33), and the Milky Way.
Is the universe in the milkyway?
..What..? The univere is EVERYTHING, including the milky way galaxy.
What is the cluster of galaxies made up by twenty-five galaxies including the milky way?
The cluster of galaxies that includes the Milky Way is known as the Local Group. It consists of over 54 galaxies, with the Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy being the two largest members. Other notable galaxies in the Local Group include the Triangulum Galaxy and numerous smaller galaxies, such as the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. This group spans approximately 10 million light-years in diameter.
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.
What is the difference between the Milky Way and an Irregular Galaxy?
The Milky Way is a spiral galaxy with a defined shape and structure, while irregular galaxies lack a symmetrical shape or structure. Irregular galaxies may have no distinct pattern, such as arms or a central bulge, unlike the Milky Way. Irregular galaxies also tend to have higher rates of star formation compared to spiral galaxies like the Milky Way.
Are there galaxies in the milky way?
The Milky Way is our galaxy, the are no other galaxies within it though we are part of a local group of galaxies.
Are there galaxies other than the Milky Way?
There are billions of galaxies in the Universe.
How is the milky way different then other galaxies?
The milky way is different then other galaxies because it has a milky color and twists in the middle and other galaxies dont have a planet with live humans.Maybe Aliens.Prove me wrong if you want because it might be wrong.Thank you.
Does the Milky Way engulf other smaller galaxies?
No
Two other galaxy like the milky way galaxy?
There could be billions of other galaxies similar to the milky way.
Is the milky way a universe?
No. The Milky Way galaxy is just one of billions of galaxies in the Universe. Just like there are billions of planets in the Milky Way Galaxy, there are also comparable numbers of planets in other galaxies.
What does the milky way have in common with other galaxies?

What is the Milky Way Galaxy compared to?
Our Milky Way is a galaxy, so you may want to compare it to other galaxies.
Is the Milky Way the Largest of all Galaxies?
No one knows the answer to that because astronomers haven't been able to explore any other galaxies besides the Milky Way.
The Milky Way Galaxy and about 17 other galaxies within 3 million light-years of the Milky Way Galaxy are collectively known as what?
The Milky Way Galaxy and about 17 other galaxies within 3 million light-years are collectively known as the Local Group. This group includes galaxies such as Andromeda (M31), Triangulum (M33), and the Milky Way.
What is after the milky way?
After the Milky Way galaxy, there are many other galaxies in the universe. Some of the closest galaxies to us are the Andromeda galaxy and the Triangulum galaxy. Beyond these, there are billions of other galaxies in the universe, each containing billions of stars.
The Milky Way and 16 other galaxies compose what?
