I guess you're using Keith Hull's Moray plugin for the Galaxy Include File?
I can't say I know much about the plugin interface, etc. but I just might be
able to help with the Galaxy include file side of things: each galaxy object
actually consists of a main object (galaxy, nebula, major star) and a
cluster of secondary objects (stars, meteors or comets).  If you just want
the main object you need to turn off the galaxy cluster objects - in the
include file this is done by setting the galaxy_cluster_name option to empty
quotes (""), so if you look for a similarly named option in the plugin
interface you may have some luck...
