The Fornax Dwarf galaxy is a dwarf galaxy that is part of the Local Group of galaxies.

An exception to the " Local group " rule is Planet Hulk, which not only took place in another galactic cluster but indeed another galactic supercluster, namely Fornax.

The Local Group is located on the outskirts of the LS in a small filament extending from the Fornax Cluster to the Virgo Cluster.

The Hubble Ultra-Deep Field ( HUDF ) is an image of a small region of space in the constellation Fornax, composited from Hubble Space Telescope data accumulated over a period from September 24, 2003, through to January 16, 2004.

Located southwest of Orion in the southern-hemisphere constellation Fornax, the image is a bit over 3 arcminutes across.

The field is 200 arcseconds to a side, with a total area of 11 square arcminutes, and lies in the constellation of Fornax.

NGC 1049 is a globular cluster located in the constellation of Fornax, in the nearby Local Group galaxy of Fornax Dwarf.

NGC 1365, also known as the Great Barred Spiral Galaxy, is a barred spiral galaxy about 56 million light-years away in the constellation Fornax.

The Fornax Dwarf Spheroidal is an elliptical dwarf galaxy in the constellation Fornax that was discovered in 1938 by Harlow Shapley.

Unlike the globular clusters Fornax 1, 2, 3, and 5, which have horizontal branches across a wide range of colors and include RR Lyrae variables, Fornax 4 is found to have only red in its horizontal branch.

The Sweet William Dwarf plant is a biennial plantFrom a gardener's perspective, a plant's status as annual, biennial, or perennial often varies based on location or purpose.

He is best known for playing Dave Lister in the British science fiction sitcom Red Dwarf, and Lloyd Mullaney in the long-running soap opera Coronation Street.

Charles has filmed a 10th series of Red Dwarf, which is due to be broadcast on Dave in October 2012.

Dwarf planet Makemake is such a borderline classical cubewano / scatnear object.

Presumably this alphabet was meant to be used in conjunction with a Dwarf language, but mostly it is used for transliterations.

Our own galaxy ( the Milky Way ) has a tiny satellite galaxy ( the Sagittarius Dwarf Elliptical Galaxy ) which is currently gradually being ripped up and " eaten " by the Milky Way.

The Milky Way galaxy is currently in the process of cannibalizing the Sagittarius Dwarf Elliptical Galaxy and the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy.

Pisces Dwarf is equidistant from the Andromeda Galaxy and the Triangulum Galaxy, so it may be a satellite of either.

* The membership of NGC 3109, and its companions Sextans A and the Antlia Dwarf, is uncertain due to their extreme distance from the center of the Local Group.

The Anti-thesis is the Spot and the Synthesis is the Dwarf.

Sonic screwdrivers appear in the 1980s Fighting Fantasy book Sky Lord ( although it is never used for anything in the book ), the Iron Man novel Femme Fatales, and the Red Dwarf novel Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers.

Simon is voiced in this game by Chris Barrie, known for his roles in Red Dwarf and The Brittas Empire.

The Tucana Dwarf galaxy, which was discovered in 1990, is also in Tucana.

White Dwarf is a magazine published by British games manufacturer Games Workshop.

Grombrindal the White Dwarf is also a special character for the Dwarf army, whose rules are published only in certain issues of White Dwarf ( being revamped for the most recent edition of the rules ).

It is never stated who exactly the White Dwarf is, but it is implied that he is the spirit of Snorri Whitebeard, the last king of the Dwarfs to receive respect from an Elf.

Andromeda is represented in the northern sky by the constellation Andromeda, which contains the Andromeda Galaxy.

This is the approach of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey.

* In the Galaxy Railways, one of the squads is named the Cepheus Platoon.

One of the more significant galaxies in Canes Venatici is the Whirlpool Galaxy ( M51, NGC 5194 ) and NGC 5195, a small barred spiral galaxy that is seen face on.

From the CMB data it is seen that our local group of galaxies ( the galactic cluster that includes the Solar System's Milky Way Galaxy ) appears to be moving at 627 ± 22 km / s relative to the reference frame of the CMB ( also called the CMB rest frame, or the frame of reference in which there is no motion through the CMB ) in the direction of galactic longitude l

A 2012 study of gravitational microlensing data collected between 2002 and 2007 concludes the proportion of stars with planets is much higher and estimates an average of 1. 6 planets orbiting between 0. 5 – 10 AU per star in the Milky Way Galaxy, the authors of this study conclude " that stars are orbited by planets as a rule, rather than the exception.

* The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams is named for a fictional galactic encyclopedia that one of the main characters works for.

Galaxy formation is hypothesized to occur, from structure formation theories, as a result of tiny quantum fluctuations in the aftermath of the Big Bang.

The result of this process is left imprinted on the distribution of galaxies in the nearby universe ( see image of 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey ).

In a separate article, Page shows that the number of states in a black hole with a mass roughly equivalent to the Andromeda Galaxy is in the range of a googolplex.

In the astronomical literature, the capitalized word ' Galaxy ' is used to refer to our galaxy, the Milky Way, to distinguish it from the billions of other galaxies.

The radiation allowed for much improved study of the Milky Way Galaxy, since it is not affected by dust absorption and its Doppler shift can be used to map the motion of the gas in the Galaxy.

Our own Galaxy, the Milky Way, is contained in the Local Group of more than 40 galaxies.

" It is a curious fact, and one to which no one knows quite how much importance to attach, that something like 85 % of all known worlds in the Galaxy, be they primitive or highly advanced, have invented a drink called jynnan tonnyx, or gee-N ' N-T ' N-ix, or jinond-o-nicks, or any one of a thousand or more variations on the same phonetic theme.

Galaxy Quest is a 1999 science-fiction comedy parody about a troupe of human actors who defend a group of aliens against an alien warlord.

Galaxy Quest is a once-popular television space-drama series starring Jason Nesmith as the commander of a spaceship called the NSEA Protector, Alexander Dane as the ship's alien science officer, Fred Kwan as the chief engineer, Gwen DeMarco as the computer officer, and Tommy Webber as a precocious child pilot.

Eighteen years after the show was cancelled, as a Galaxy Quest convention full of costumed fans is underway, Jason is approached by a group of people whose leader, Mathesar, says that they are aliens called " Thermians ".
