Group of 60 ultra-faint stars orbiting the Milky Way could be new type of galaxy never seen before News
By Sharmila Kuthunur
A new satellite galaxy discovered orbiting the Milky Way is either an incredibly ancient, soon-to-fragment clump of stars or the most dark-matter-dominated dwarf galaxy ever found.
Astronomers have spotted the faintest and lightest satellite galaxy ever found: a minuscule, tight-knit group of stars trailing the Milky Way. The peculiar discovery could represent a new class of impossibly faint, dark-matter-dominated star systems that had eluded detection until now.
Tentatively named Ursa Major III/Unions 1 (UMa3/U1), the newfound star system resides in the constellation Ursa Major, about 30,000 light-years from the sun. It is the newest addition to our galaxy's assortment of at least 50 satellite galaxies. Even the smallest of these galaxies host thousands to billions of stars.
The newfound system, by contrast, has just a sprinkling of 60 stars. As such, its mass is just 16 times the mass of the sun, scientists reported in a new study. For comparison, the Milky Way's mass is about 1.5 trillion times that of our star, according to NASA.

I guess I'll step out tonight with the binoculars and check out the devil comet. According to an article on Spaceweather it's estimated at mag + 3.5. www.spaceweather.com/It's currently located in Aries theskylive.com/12p-info

Japan to ink deal with NASA on cooperation for Moon exploration plan
April 9, 2024 (Mainichi Japan)
TOKYO (Kyodo) -- Japan's science minister Masahito Moriyama said Tuesday he will travel to the United States to sign a deal later this week with NASA affirming Tokyo's cooperation on a U.S.-led lunar exploration program.
The Artemis program aims to send U.S. astronauts to the lunar surface in 2026 for the first time in over half a century, and Moriyama and Bill Nelson, administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, are expected to agree on a deal that also includes two Japanese astronauts traveling to the Moon.
Their meeting comes as Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and U.S. President Joe Biden are scheduled to hold a summit in Washington on Wednesday.
Additionally, Japan plans to provide a lunar rover for traveling the Moon's surface that astronauts can drive without wearing a spacesuit and in which they can sleep. Toyota Motor Corp. is spearheading its development.
Japan will also transport supplies to Gateway, a lunar-orbiting outpost planned under the program.
Besides returning humans to the Moon and advancing lunar exploration, the ultimate goal of the Artemis program is to explore Mars.
