... Our Sun is part of a huge wheel-shaped collection of stars. ... Astronomers have long suspected it was a very massive black hole, and that every galaxy had such a central mass, created early in the history of the universe. ... However, unless that object happens to be headed directly at the black hole (a relatively small target) it will just swing around and fly away again, like a comet making a pass at the Sun. The velocity acquired in falling towards the black hole also helps it escape. ...

These clusters are probably young versions of globular clusters, but they are commonly called super star clusters. Seven dwarf galaxies within 16 million light-years have formed super star clusters, with one of these galaxies, NGC 1569, possessing two young clusters. ... Super star clusters have a lot to tell us about star formation. ...

The Extragalactic ALFA Zone of Avoidance team is mapping the distribution of low-Galactic-latitude galaxies and large scale structures through detection of galaxies' 21-cm emission with ALFA. This Zone of Avoidance (ZOA) survey finds new HI galaxies which lie hidden behind the Milky Way, and also provides redshifts and other HI parameters for partially-obscured galaxies known at other wavelengths. ... Discovery and Follow-up of a Nearby Galaxy from the Arecibo Zone of Avoidance Survey. ...
