hence its enormous angular extent <strong>of</strong> over 45<br />

degrees, from its core (55,000 light years away) near<br />

Almeisan in Gemini to its leading tip beyond Capella<br />

(Almeisan = Gamma Gemini, Capella = Alpha<br />

Auriga). <strong>The</strong> little dwarf galaxy has been un<strong>of</strong>ficially<br />

christened "Snickers," due to its proximity to the Milky<br />

Way.<br />

Most important: here is a large and very near galaxy,<br />

a kind <strong>of</strong> a third Magellanic Cloud, that covers a<br />

significant portion <strong>of</strong> the heavens in the anti-center<br />

direction <strong>of</strong> our galaxy. On the Ecliptic, it extends from<br />

later Gemini through the first 10 degrees <strong>of</strong> Cancer,<br />

with a central core around the 6th degree <strong>of</strong> Cancer.<br />

"Snickers" is close enough to disrupt the outer portion<br />

<strong>of</strong> the spiral-arms <strong>of</strong> our galaxy!<br />
