Remains of tidal arms derived from interactions with satellite galaxies in the distant past was discovered by astronomers at the edge of the Milky Way Galaxy.<\/h2>\n
The Milky Way Galaxy<\/h3>\n
The Milky Way Galaxy is surrounded by approximately 50 satellite galaxies and has engulfed numerous galaxies in its past. Currently, the Milky Way is thought to have been perturbed by the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy. However, in its more distant past it may have interacted with another intruder, known as the Gaia Sausage, which has now dispersed its debris into the stellar halo on the outer rim of our galaxy.<\/p>\n
