Normal sudoku rules apply.
Galaxies: Divide the grid into non-overlapping groups of orthogonally connected cells called galaxies. Each galaxy is 180° rotationally symmetric around its center. Orthogonally adjacent galaxies cannot be congruent (i.e. they cannot have the same shape and size, even if they are rotated or reflected).
Galaxy centers: Each circle is the center of a galaxy. Not all galaxy centers are necessarily given. The number in such a circle indicates the sum of the digits in that galaxy. (When a circle appears in the center of a cell, the corresponding number is given in the top left of the cell instead of in the circle so it can be seen after placing digits.) Digits may repeat within a galaxy.
Example for reference:
Lösungscode: Row 8

Awesome. One DoF hurdle that was very hard. Rest hard but smooth. Great fun thx.

Astronomically fun!! Galaxy puzzles always leave me star struck, and this one is definitely a solar coaster! Thanks for the beautiful out-of-this-world puzzle! ;)

Does every cell have to be in a galaxy?

Reply: Yes! But not all centers are necessarily given so there may be cells that are not attached to a circle.

Great puzzle. Finally got back to it. What a wickedly difficult break in.
