[edit] New satellite galaxies

Looks like Milky Way's neighborhood is getting crowded: Seven or eight dwarf galaxies discovered orbiting the Milky Way. One of them, Leo T, has a preprint at arXiv.org ([1]). Looks like it has experienced star formation recently.--JyriL talk 20:08, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Revisions to the list

I would suggest using this paper by Karachentsev as a beginning point for writing this list. Would other people object if I rewrote this article using Karachentsev's paper? Dr. Submillimeter 07:38, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
