the milky ways gravity is pulling it in
It is the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy. The Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy is the second closest to the milky way.
The closest irregular galaxy to us is the Large Magellanic Cloud, which is located around 163,000 light-years away from Earth. It is a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way and can be seen with the naked eye from the southern hemisphere.
There is not a black hole at the center of the Canis Major constellation. Canis Major is a constellation in the night sky and does not have a physical center like a galaxy that could potentially contain a black hole.
Less than one. * The Milky Way (our galaxy) has a diameter of about 100,000 light-years. * According to the Wikipedia, the Canis Major galaxy is at a distance of 25,000 light-years from our Solar System. However, its status as a galaxy is disputed (in other words, it may not be a galaxy). * On the other hand, the Sagittarius Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy is at a distance of about 70,000 light-years from the Solar System - still less than the diameter of our galaxy. Note that the distances given are from our Solar System; NOT from the center of our Milky Way.
Longitude is an east/west measurement on the Earth's surface. Canis Major is in the sky. In the course of 23hours and 56minutes, Canis Major passes over EVERY longitude on Earth.
The Canis Major dwarf galaxy is classified as an irregular galaxy
Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy was created in 2003.
The Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy is classified as an irregular galaxy. As the name suggests, it is also a dwarf galaxy.
Horse Isle Answer: Andromeda~Callileeno on Chestnut ServerThe Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy is the closest galaxy to us but the Andromeda Galaxy is th largest spiral galaxy near us.Look on this site for more info...http://www.brighthub.com/science/space/articles/41000.aspx
1,260.
It is the Canis major dwarf galaxy. It is 25,000 light years away from the sun.
About 25,000 light years from us,
The Large Magellanic Cloud is the third closest Galaxy to the Milky Way, after the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy and the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy.
In general, dwarf galaxies are smaller than spiral galaxies like our Milky Way.
The nearest galaxy to us is the Canis Major Dwarf about 0.025 million light years away.
The nearest galaxy to us is the Canis Major Dwarf about 0.025 million light years away.
This would be Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, discovered in November 2003, which is approximately 25,000 light years from the Earth.
