Detailed explanation-1: -Spiral galaxy M33 is located in the triangle-shaped constellation Triangulum, earning it the nickname the Triangulum galaxy. About half the size of our Milky Way galaxy, M33 is the third-largest member of our Local Group of galaxies following the Andromeda galaxy (M31) and the Milky Way.
Detailed explanation-2: -M31 and the Milky Way are the most massive members of the Local Group, with M33 being the 3rd largest. Both M31 and the Milky Way have dwarf galaxies associated with them.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Triangulum galaxy’s diameter is about 60, 000 light-years, or about 60% that of our Milky Way. It’s thought to contain some 40 billion stars. In contrast, there are 100-400 billion stars in the Milky Way and a trillion (1, 000 billion) stars in the Andromeda galaxy.
