Astronomers have discovered 20 unusual metal-poor stars located near the disk of the Milky Way. These stars are believed to be remnants of an ancient dwarf galaxy, which has been informally named Loki. The findings suggest that the Milky Way has absorbed smaller galaxies over time, contributing to its current structure. The research was published in a recent study, highlighting the importance of these stars in understanding the history of the Milky Way and its formation processes.
