MCG+01-02-015 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Pisces.It is an example of a void galaxy, and noted to be one of the loneliest galaxies spotted, with no other galaxy around 100 million light-years in all directions. mcg +07-07-015 or NGC1161 is a lenticular galaxy approximately 90 million light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Perseus.
The name of this galaxy is based on a Redshift (z) measurement of nearly 7 (actually, z = 6.604). [ 5 ] Galaxy Cosmos Redshift 7 is reported to be the brightest of distant galaxies (z > 6) and to contain some of the earliest first stars ( first generation ; Population III ) that produced the chemical elements needed for the later formation of ...
A galaxy is a system of stars, stellar remnants, interstellar gas, dust, dark matter, bound together by gravity. The word is derived from the Greek galaxias, literally 'milky', a reference to the Milky Way galaxy that contains the Solar System.
It contains 29,418 galaxies and 9,134 galaxy clusters. [1] [2] Gallery. I Zwicky 18. I Zwicky 32, a face-on spiral galaxy in the constellation Canes Venatici.
