Triangulum Galaxy

Triangulum Galaxy

The Triangulum Galaxy is a spiral galaxy approximately 3 million light years (ly) from Earth in the constellation Triangulum. It is catalogued as Messier 33 or NGC 598, and is sometimes informally referred to as the Pinwheel Galaxy, a nickname it shares with 101 Messier 101. The Triangulum Galaxy is the third-largest member of the Local Group of galaxies, which includes the Milky Way Galaxy, the Andromeda Galaxy and about 30 other smaller galaxies. With a diameter of about 50,000, the Triangulum galaxy is the third largest member of the , a which also contains the  and the , and is a gravitationally bound companion of the Andromeda Galaxy. Triangulum may be home to 40 billion stars, compared to 400 billion for the Milky Way, and 1 trillion (1000 billion) stars for Andromeda.



No known Sentient species has any ties or connection to the Triangulum Galaxy, with the exception of The Golden who have a Galactic Trading Post (Galactic Bazaar) or two in that Galaxy  [1]. The Golden know about a series of ancient gates that connect all Galaxies of the Local group.

Even though the Golden have recently joined the Union and shared many of their secrets, they have not yet fully integrated or shared their knowledge about the secret gates and how to use them. (There is no direct connection from the Milky Way Galaxy to the Triangulum Galaxy. The Ancient gate that connected these two Galaxies had been destroyed by the Pree or the Uni long ago.

The pieces are still there → See “Ancient Triangulum Gate”)

[1] The Golden must travel to Andromeda and then cross Andromeda to an ancient gate and from there reach Triangulum via Ancient Gate. The Golden have sent a messenger to their Triangulum Holdings to inform them about the Chances (Union Member Ship) But it will be centuries before all the distant Golden Bazaars are conected and integrated. No GalNet or Space Bus Connection exists to any of the Golden Bazaars, except the main Bazaar of Sobody.
