Phoenix (dwarf galaxy)

The dwarf Galaxie of the Phoenix is a Galaxie of our local Groupe, probably satellite of the Milky Way or Grand Cloud of Magellan, and located in the constellation of the Phoenix. She was discovered by H.E. Schuster and R.M. West in 1976 and classified at the time like possible a globular Cluster. R. Canterna and P.J. Flower determined in 1977 which it was actually about a galaxy.

It seems that it is about an intermediate object between a spheroid dwarf Galaxie and a irregular Galaxie.
