The Milky Way may have devoured another galaxy named Loki, and astronomers think they've found its remains
Astronomers say that they have identified 20 stars that may have grown up together in a dwarf galaxy named "Loki" that eventually became part of our Milky Way.
Astronomers have identified a group of 20 stars that may be remnants of a dwarf galaxy that was absorbed by the Milky Way. These stars are believed to have formed together in a galaxy that has since been incorporated into our own. The discovery offers new insights into the Milky Way's history of galactic mergers.
This finding helps astronomers understand how our galaxy grew by consuming smaller celestial bodies over billions of years.
