LS 5039 is LSS 5039
it's a Galactic microquasar [emphasis on the capital G]
ostensibly Galaxy & Galactic = [in the] Milky Way, and galaxy & galactic
= the rest of the galaxies.
Of course, that's okay if yer speaking English... ...in German _all_
nouns start with a capital letter [if I remember rightly], and what
about all the folk that don't use a roman letter alphabet, or a basic
alphabet at all for that matter...?
anway, end of pedant points...
Cheers
John
