AST-9619632 Dr. Edward Olszewski, at the University of Arizona, Dr. Mario Mateo, at the University of Michigan, and Dr. Heather Morrison, at Case Western Reserve University will carry out a collaborative project to map the outer halo of the Milky Way to search for possible moving groups of stars which are likely remnants of accretion of smaller galaxies by the Milky Way. The goal is to obtain a clearer understanding of the merger history of our Galaxy, by determining the content of the halo that can be attributed to accretion from small, nearby, interacting galaxies. This is a very ambitious observational project that will be carried out on telescopes in both the northern and southern hemispheres.

AST-9619632亚利桑那大学的Edward Olszewski博士，密歇根大学的Mario Mateo博士和Heather Morrison博士，在Case Western Reserve University的Heather Morrison博士将执行一个合作项目，以绘制乳白色的外部项目，以绘制乳状之路的外部光环，以搜索可能由小型加尔克萨克斯群岛的米尔纳特（Milnants of Milky of Milky of Milky of Milky of Milky）搜索可能移动的群体。 目的是通过确定可以归因于附近的小型，相互作用的星系的积聚的光环的内容来更清楚地了解我们星系的合并历史。 这是一个非常雄心勃勃的观察项目，将在北半球和南半球的望远镜上进行。
