    Map showing the local void
    A smoothed rendition of the structure surrounding the Local Void. Our Milky Way galaxy lies at the origin of the red-green-blue orientation arrows (each 200 million lightyears in length). We are at a boundary between a large, low density void, and the high density Virgo cluster.

    Hubble has uncovered 2 tiny dwarf galaxies that have wandered from a vast cosmic wilderness into a nearby “big city” packed with galaxies. After being quiescent for billions of years, they are ready to party by starting a firestorm of star birth. “These Hubble images may be snapshots of what present-day dwarf galaxies may have been like at earlier epochs,” said Erik Tollerud of the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, Maryland...
