I think it needs to be updated I have read multiple articles that said because we reside inside the Milky Way we have always underestimated its size and overestimated the size of Andromeda and they are almost identical in weight as a matter of fact the Milky Way is said to be slightly heavier. And if it has the mass of 800 billion Suns then it probably has many more than a hundred billion stars. What I read in these articles was the Milky Way's actual weight is around 806 billion suns. Which is almost identical to the mass of the Andromeda and in fact maybe slightly larger. Play at one time they were saying Andromeda is twice the width of the Milky Way but this has changed. The Milky Way is slightly heavier but they don't know if this is because it has more stars than Andromeda or because it has more black holes because they are now finding that globular clusters in the middle also have intermediate Mass black holes. Is something that still not known for certain which came first but I believe all the massive black holes came first and were not created with stars or mergers otherwise the early universe would not have supermassive black holes. I think because of the speed of the Galaxy or some other reason it made giant clouds of gas collapse informed supermassive black holes and they are responsible even for the shape of the galaxies and the intermediate ones are responsible for the shape of the globular clusters. Of course this is my theory but the current theory has to be wrong but otherwise the early universe and even today we would not be able to have created black holes with billions of times the mass of the sun. So the merger theory is out. I'm sure sometimes stellar Mass black holes do merge and become larger but there's not enough to form supermassive black holes so the current theory is wrong. My theory may also be wrong but the current theory is definitely wrong and observations prove it. But anyway recent estimates indicate that the Milky Way May in fact be the largest galaxy in the local group.
Fascinating. To think only 100 or so years ago, it was first proven Andromeda was itself a much larger galaxy headed straight for our own milky way. Not least, that Andromeda is but one of an almost countless number of galaxies in the known universe itself! 😮
I find it fascinating how these satellite galaxies, with their varied sizes and compositions, contribute to our understanding of galactic evolution and interaction.
It’s pretty interesting how satellites can sometimes be more interesting than the objects they orbit. This goes for satellite galaxies, but also satellite stars and satellite planets.
📝 Summary of Key Points: 📌 Satellite galaxies are small galaxies that orbit larger ones like the Milky Way. They are challenging to detect and study due to their faintness. 🧐 The Milky Way is part of the Local Group, which consists of at least 54 galaxies. Astronomers have identified at least 50 satellite galaxies around the Milky Way. 🚀 Important satellite galaxies of the Milky Way include the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud, known for their intense star formation activity and globular clusters. 🚀 The Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy is a spherical dwarf galaxy located 25,000 light years away from the Milky Way, with an old, metal-poor stellar population. 🚀 The Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy, located about 81,000 light years away, is being torn apart by the Milky Way, contributing to the stream of stars in the galactic halo. 🚀 The Fornax Dwarf Galaxy, located approximately 460,000 light years away, has a large population of globular clusters and is used to study the structure and dynamics of dwarf galaxies. 🚀 The Sculptor Dwarf Galaxy is notable for its density of dark matter, providing insights into the distribution and properties of dark matter. 🚀 The Leo 1 and Leo 2 Dwarf Galaxies in the constellation Leo have different heavy element contents and shapes, offering valuable information about galaxy formation and evolution. 🚀 Studying satellite galaxies helps in understanding dark matter, galaxy formation, stellar evolution, and other fundamental areas of astronomy. 💡 Additional Insights and Observations: 💬 "By studying these galaxies, we are reminded of the importance of looking beyond the obvious and exploring what lurks in the shadows." 📊 Astronomers have identified at least 50 satellite galaxies around the Milky Way. 🌐 References and Sources: The video does not mention specific references or sources. 📣 Concluding Remarks: Satellite galaxies, although small and faint, provide valuable insights into various aspects of astronomy. They help in understanding dark matter, galaxy formation, stellar evolution, and more. By studying these galaxies, astronomers can uncover mysteries and expand our knowledge of the cosmos.

Satellite galaxies are galaxies that orbit other galaxies. Satellite stars are stars that orbit other stars. Therefore, satellite planets are planets that orbit other planets. This means our solar system has dozens of planets! 🌙
@@thegardenmechanic6845 I know, probably all satellite galaxies will in the Farr future. Therefore I'm curious to know if Andromeda is also considered a satellite galaxy
The andromeda and milky way galaxies are too large to orbit each other and are almost the same size though the andromeda is larger. Same way if a moon was same size as the earth, then they will eventually collide.
Yeah. A lot of those graphics had nothing to do with what you were talking about at the time. Essentially you just had a space related slide show playing while you talked. Very disapointed

Mind boggling that 10 billion stars is considered a small galaxy.
Probably they identify themselves as such. 🤭😏

Great video and information !
Very interesting have to gaze at the night sky and wonder about the vastness....🤔

Had no idea the Milky Way had so many satellite galaxies. I would have said at most 2!
I thought there were only two also! Was very surprised to find there are a lot more!
So what was discovered first the andromeda galaxy or the satellite galaxies.? I'm confused if andromeda is the closest galaxy?
I think the universe is older than what we think
Yes me 2..
Our galaxy is just a big town out bush.
Can we consider that the Milky Way becomes a satellite galaxy of Andromeda one day in the future? Or does it not work that way?
They are to collide and form a single galaxy.

@@NeoMullenAndromeda is a primary galaxy, not a satellite. But Andromeda does have many satellite galaxies around it.
The andromeda and milky way galaxies are too large to orbit each other and are almost the same size though the andromeda is larger. Same way if a moon was same size as the earth, then they will eventually collide.
