Name the new concept
Extragalactic Objects

Describe the concept
@katieefrey stated this is a broader concept to describe extragalactic objects, things in space that are not otherwise known. would fit somewhere under "extragalactic astronomy"

A definition I found online for extragalactic was:
"Of, pertaining to, or dealing with the space beyond the Milky Way."
-An Etymological Dictionary of Astronomy and Astrophysics, by M. Heydari-Malayeri
