Astronomers have discovered a hidden galaxy behind one of the closest galaxies to the Milky Way. The galaxy, called NGC 253-dw2, is a dwarf galaxy that is only visible when the light from the larger galaxy, NGC 253, is blocked by dust. This finding reveals the complex structure and history of our galactic neighbourhood. https://www.livescience.com/space#galaxy#dwarf#hidden

If you need to pull off an impossible feat of construction overnight, dwarves might offer you a better deal than the Devil - as long as you have something you want.
A queen of the dwarves once prophesized to Count Otto of Oldenburg that his line would prosper if he drank from her drinking horn - but doom if he did not.
Alas, he simply stole the horn without drinking from it.
In his medieval collection of Norse myths, Snorri Sturluson mentions "dark elves," but it's unclear if he means dwarves or a totally different subterranean creature. As no earlier Norse source mentions dark elves, some people think Sturluson invented the term.
