Dwarf satellite galaxies in the SDSS
Researchers have just published in Nature an article where they present the conclusions they draw from these observations. They found almost every time at least two brightest dwarf galaxies, and thus resemble the Magellanic Clouds around the Milky Way, apparently indeed orbiting in a disk around large galaxies. Statistically, this would even say that about half of the satellite galaxies of the local universe should be located in rotating disks to be consistent with their observations.
Before this discovery, researchers had already made another assessment of the likelihood that the discs dwarf galaxies around the Milky Way and Andromeda are just a statistical anomaly: "In fact, we got to calculate the combined probability of finding discs satellites as observed around the Milky Way and Andromeda was one hundred thousand being conservative. www.enjoycoloring.com It's very little, but it's still possible in a universe with billions of galaxies " explained Futura-Sciences Benedict Famaey.
