In this gallery are many images of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies which have recently been discovered and analyzed. ... The central surface brightness of this galaxy is 24.28 . Malin 2 This galaxy is another huge disk galaxy with a scale length of 15 kpc and a redshift of 15000 km/a. The high surface brightness knot in one of its spiral arms actually has the same color, luminosity and H-alpha equivalent width as the entire Large Magellanic Cloud . ... Truly it is a Low Surface Brightness Galaxy. ...

If material ejected from the Earth contains microorganisms and spores, the question arises whether life may be carried from planet to planet within the solar system. ... However, the solar system is tiny on the scale of the Galaxy, and it has generally been thought that the transfer of life between stars is impossible -- the microorganisms would be destroyed by cosmic rays, ultraviolet light and so on. ...

The HERschel Inventory of The Agents of Galaxy Evolution (HERITAGE) of the Magellanic Clouds will use dust emission to investigate the life cycle of matter in both the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC). Using the Herschel Space Observatory's PACS and SPIRE photometry cameras, we imaged a 2ТА У? 8ТА strip through the LMC, at a position angle of ~22.5ТА as part of the science demonstration phase of the Herschel mission. ...
