==Overview==
The Moskstraumen Galaxy, sometimes referred to as the Moskenstraumen Galaxy, is a Spiral Galaxy in the constellation of Hydra. Due to its appearance, it has been nicknamed the Moskstraumen Galaxy after the whirlpool sharing the same name in Norway. The galaxy has a diameter of 217.40 kly, or around 217,400 ly, making it twice the size of the Milky Way. It has no current distinguished spiral arms as of now.
==Galactic Neighborhood==

==Cataloged Objects==
===Nebulae===
====Coffee Mug Nebula====
RN 0-5-7606-2180-6943, also known as the Coffee Mug Nebula, is a nebula 30.09 ly in diameter. The nebula has a small Star Cluster.
====Trophy Nebula====
RN 0-5-7606-2180-2168, also known as the Trophy Nebula, is a nebula 12.27 ly in diameter. The nebula has a small collection of stars at its center, only consisting of 14 known stars.
====Disk Nebula====
RN 0-5-7606-2180-2167, also known as the Disk Nebula or Disc Nebula, is a large 79.93 ly nebula. It is the largest catalogued nebula in the galaxy. Its central cluster is slightly outside of the Nebula.
===Clusters===
====Central Cluster====
The Central Cluster is, as you could've guessed, is the central cluster of the galaxy. It doesn't have an RS code or a stated diameter since it isn't considered a cluster by Space Engine. It appears to be an open cluster.
====Densin Cluster====
The Densin cluster, also known as RC 0-5-7606-2180-22082, is a globular cluster with a diameter of 173.23 ly. Its luminosity is 71029, and it is the largest documented globular cluster in the galaxy. It is also the only documented globular cluster in the galaxy.
