Found the dim dwarf galaxy

According to scientists, this galaxy may be about 12 billion years.

Recently, the Japanese Subaru telescope located in Hawaii detected a faint spheroidal galaxy. Astronomers called it the M81.

Astronomers under the leadership of Adam Smirkin from the University of Michigan explored the dwarf galaxy and found a new weak dwarf in M81 group is one of the nearest groups.

Also astronomers have found himself a dwarf, named d1005 + 68. It is 13 million light-years from our planet and, according to scientists, has a radius of 613 light-years. According to scientists, this galaxy may be about 12 billion years. The scientists also put forward a very interesting hypothesis, according to which the dwarf can be a companion BK5N.

But this is only a hypothesis, and scientists there are still years of work before they confirm or deny.
