It is located within our Milky Way galaxy and is part of the population of satellite galaxies. Ruprecht 44 is notable for its relatively low luminosity and its sparse collection of stars, characteristics that define ultrafaint dwarf galaxies. These objects are of particular interest to astronomers studying galaxy formation and the distribution of dark matter.
