Giuseppe Donatiello (2017)

Giuseppe Donatiello (born 14 December 1967) is an Italian amateur astronomer [1], author of popular articles and astronomical news[2]. He is primarily known as the discoverer of eleven nearby dwarf galaxies in the Local Volume[3].

  • In 2020, he discovered the ultrafaint dwarf galaxy named Pisces VII/Triangulum III[4] which turned out to be a strong satellite candidate of the dwarf spiral galaxy Messier 33[5]. Pisces VII is the first Local Group galaxy to be discovered by a non-professional astronomer.
  • Also in 2021, the discovery of three new satellites of the spiral galaxy NGC 253 was announced[6]. These three new galaxies were named Donatiello II, III and IV. All were later observed and confirmed as satellites of NGC 253 by the Hubble Space Telescope[7][8].
  • In 2024, the discovery of five more satellite galaxies of the NGC 253 galaxy was announced. The new objects were named Donatiello V, VI, VII, VIII and IX[10].

To these discoveries must be added some candidate planetary nebulae[11] and the participation in the discovery and analysis of several dozen stellar streams[12][13].

He is the principal investigator and coordinator of the National Deep Sky Research Section of the Italian Amateur Astronomers Union[14], the oldest Italian amateur organization. From the same organization, he was awarded the Ruggieri Prize in 2022 for his brilliant results in the study of the deep sky in Italy[15]
