The nearest galaxies to
the Milky Way are easily seen with an amateur telescope. Like Andromeda and the Magellan Clouds can be
seen with the naked eye. Approximately the Milky Way dwarf galaxies orbiting
some. In 1994 the discovery of the SagDEG (Sagittarius Dwarf Elliptical Galaxy)
to 88,000 lights years away, and in 2003 the Canes Major galaxy at 25,000 light
years. Are the two closest so far discovered?
