The Local Group is the galaxy group that includes the Milky Way, where Earth is located. It has a total diameter of roughly 3 megaparsecs (10 million light-years ; 9 × 10 19 kilometres ), [ 1 ] and a total mass of the order of 2 × 10 12 solar masses (4 × 10 42 kg). [ 2 ]

In 1963, Geoffrey Burbidge and Margaret Burbidge identified a group of five background galaxies located northeast of NGC 247. [8] This grouping came to be known as Burbidge's Chain, and in 1977 it was listed in the VV catalog as VV 518. [9] Individually, the 5 galaxies are also identified as NGC 247A, NGC 247B, NGC 247C, NGC 247D, and ESO 540-025.
NGC 147 is a member of the Local group of galaxies and a satellite galaxy of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31). It forms a physical pair with the nearby galaxy NGC 185, [5] another remote satellite of M31. It was discovered by John Herschel in September 1829. Visually it is both fainter and slightly larger than NGC 185 (and therefore has a ...
Size (left) and distance (right) of a few well-known galaxies put to scale. There are an estimated 100 billion galaxies in all of the observable universe. [1] On the order of 100,000 galaxies make up the Local Supercluster, and about 51 galaxies are in the Local Group (see list of nearest galaxies for a complete list).
If I just take it down to platform gross margin at the midpoint of our guide for 2025 at 52.5%, that compares to 53.5% in 2024, so a 100-basis-point decline, but that's fully explained by 606 ...
