Are any galaxies moving toward Earth?
The Andromeda galaxy is moving towards us (The Milky Way Galaxy) at about 432,000 kph. It's expected to start merging in around 3 -> 4 billion years time.
Does the galaxy moving each other?
Yes, some of the galaxies are moving toward each other like our milky way and Andromeda moving toward each other with the speed 120 km per second and after 3 billion years from now these galaxies collide with one another. The current distance of Andromeda from milky way is about 2.5 million light years
What is the Milky Way orbiting?
There is no larger rotational group for galaxies. The Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda Galaxy, as part of the Local Group, are moving generally in one direction, toward an unidentified central mass in the direction of the constellation Centaurus. (This may be a gravitational effect of the Shapley Supercluster.)
How many galaxies are approaching milky way galaxy and how many are moving away related to the cosmological red shift?
Most galaxies are moving away from us. Only a few galaxies, which are nearby, are moving towards us.
What is the speed of Milky Way galaxy?
The Milky Way galaxy is moving through space at an average speed of about 600 kilometers per second (approximately 1.3 million miles per hour) relative to the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation. Additionally, it is part of the Local Group of galaxies, which is itself moving toward the Andromeda Galaxy and the Virgo Cluster at about 1,000 kilometers per second. Overall, the Milky Way's motion is influenced by gravitational interactions with other galaxies and the expansion of the universe.
Are there more galaxies than the milky way galaxy?
Yes. The Milky Way is just one galaxy. There are billions of galaxies in the known universe.
Is Milky Way Galaxy cluster of galaxies?
No. It is a single galaxy.
What are the stars in the galaxies?
milky way galaxy
Does our galaxy orbit anything in the universe?
Yes, our galaxy, the Milky Way, is part of a group of galaxies called the Local Group. Within the Local Group, the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy are the two largest galaxies and they are actually moving towards each other. It is believed that the Local Group is also moving towards the Virgo Cluster, a larger cluster of galaxies. So, in a sense, our galaxy is moving within the universe, but it is not orbiting around a single object like a planet orbits a star.
Are there galaxies in the milky way?
The Milky Way is our galaxy, the are no other galaxies within it though we are part of a local group of galaxies.
Which galaxy does our solar system belong to?
Not "galaxies", just one galaxy. Our galaxy is called the Milky Way.
What motion do the stars in the milky way galaxy move?
The stars in the Milky Way move in the opposite direction of the sun.
