the mosaic to be produced, examine the astronomers so-called star-forming regions in the small spiral galaxy in Gas and dust, new suns, such as the center explained.

For comparison: The diameter of our galaxy is 100,000 light years, the diameter of the Andromeda galaxy at 200,000 light-years.
The triangle nebula, found in the constellation of the triangle in the southern sky, is located roughly three million light-years from the milky way. Under good conditions of observation of the spiral galaxy to already be seen with the naked eye as a milky stain.
