The Milky Way and Its Satellite Galaxies: Exploring the Local Group

This comprehensive overview delves into the Milky Way and its satellite galaxies within the Local Group, including three major spiral galaxies and over thirty dwarf irregular and dwarf elliptical galaxies. Key members such as the Magellanic Clouds, Sagittarius dSph, and various dwarf spheroidals like Leo I, Fornax, and Sculptor are highlighted. The Andromeda Galaxy’s family of satellites, including M32, N205, N185, and N147, are examined, along with important irregulars like IC 10 and N6822. Discover the fascinating structure and dynamics of these celestial neighbors.
