	Galene (mythology) Galene (Ancient Greek: Γαλήνη ''Galênê'' means 'calm weather' or 'calm, tranquility') in ancient Greek religion was a minor goddess personifying calm seas. Hesiod enumerates her as one of the 50 Nereids, sea-nymph daughters of the 'Old Man of the Sea' Nereus and the Oceanid Doris, perhaps identical with her sister Galatea. Meanwhile, Euripides mentions "Galaneia" (''Galênaiê'') as a daughter of Pontus and Callimachus refers to her as "Galenaia". A statue of Galene, next to that of Thalassa, was mentioned by Pausanias as an offering at the temple of Poseidon in Corinth. The alternative name Galatea, which gained currency in the 18th century refers to same goddess. Another character, Galene was named as a maenad in a vase painting.

	427 Galene Galene (minor planet designation: 427 Galene) is a typical main belt asteroid. It was discovered by the French astronomer Auguste Charlois on 27 August 1897 from Nice, and was named after Galene, one of the Nereids of Greek Mythology (Hesiod, Theogony, 240). This asteroid is orbiting the Sun at a distance of with a period of and an eccentricity of 0.12. A computer search suggests it is the most likely parent body of the impactor that generated the temporary cometary activity of 7968 Elst–Pizarro in 1996. Analysis of the light curve generated from photometry data collected during 2009 show a rotation period of with a brightness variation of 0.6 in magnitude Magnitude may refer to: Mathematics Euclidean vector, a quantity defined by both its magnitude and its direction Magnitude (mathematics), the relative size of an object Norm (mathematics), a term for the size or length of a vector Order of ....

picture info	Algae Algae (; singular alga ) is an informal term for a large and diverse group of photosynthetic eukaryotic organisms. It is a polyphyletic grouping that includes species from multiple distinct clades. Included organisms range from unicellular microalgae, such as ''Chlorella,'' ''Prototheca'' and the diatoms, to multicellular forms, such as the giant kelp, a large brown alga which may grow up to in length. Most are aquatic and autotrophic (they generate food internally) and lack many of the distinct cell and tissue types, such as stomata, xylem and phloem that are found in land plants. The largest and most complex marine algae are called seaweeds, while the most complex freshwater forms are the ''Charophyta'', a division of green algae which includes, for example, ''Spirogyra'' and stoneworts. No definition of algae is generally accepted. One definition is that algae "have chlorophyll ''a'' as their primary photosynthetic pigment and lack a sterile covering of cells around thei ...
