The Hubble Space Telescope has detected a dwarf galaxy located backwards in our universe, three million light years away. In the dwarf galaxy there are fewer stars than other galaxies.
The researchers used the NASA / ESA Hubble Space Telescope to study the white dwarf stars within the rounds of wires NGC 6752. According to the European Space Agency (ESA), the purpose of this study was to use these strings to detect the age of the circular planets, but in the process the researchers found the dwarf galaxy. This was an unexpected search for him.
After careful analysis of the brightness and temperature of these stars, astronomers found that these stars are not part of the constellation of the galaxy, but they are located hundreds of millions of years away. This neighboring galaxy of the Universe named Benidien 1 is very small in size. It's as small as a small part of the galaxy. The researchers said that this is not only very small but also blurry. This research has been published in 'Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters of Journal'.
