re: #160 Hecuba’s daughter

I seem to remember something mentioned about it, perhaps on a YouTube video.

The use of “dark” by the authors is a bit off-putting ot me, since it clearly is not “dark” as in “dark matter”.

It’s just really, really dim,

Since we now know that most stars are red dwarf varieties, and their low surface brightness makes them hard to see individually, there could be several such in that galaxy.

Still, interesting discovery.

In our galaxy, the remaining gas clouds are rather small (on galactic scales.)
