What are four general shapes of galaxies?
Galaxies have different shapes because of what happens throughout their lives. Any galaxy, at one point or another, will encounter another or many galaxies. When encounters occur, gravity takes over. The larger of the two galaxies will consume the smaller one, this is called galactic cannibalism. The act of absorbing another galaxy will change the size of the galaxy it's shape and even the speed of its rotation. Our own galaxy, The Milky Way, is as large it is (100000-150000 Light years across.) because of galactic cannibalism. The Milky Way is as we speak consuming two other small galaxy. And in about 2 billion years, our nearest nieghbor, the Andromeda Galaxy, will collide with our galaxy. Both the Milky Way and Adromeda galaxy are spiral galaxies, but after they collide the resulting new galaxy will an elliptical galaxy, which looks like a bright white sphere.
Which planets orbital shape is similar to Jupiter?
All planets in our solar system have elliptical orbits.
What planets have very similar shaped Orbits?
If you mean in our Solar System: All of them. All are elliptical, but all are very close to a circle.
How would the orbits differ if a star and planet were of similar mass to each other?
Two objects of the same mass will also move in elliptical orbits. Whether the two bodies are of the same mass or different, one focus of the elliptical orbit is the center of mass (barycenter).
Dose mars rotate left or right?
Mars rotates from the left to the right. Mars is approximately 48,700,000 miles from Earth and is similar to our planet in that is has an elliptical orbit.
Are all galaxies similar?
No. Some galaxies are shaped differently (irregular vs. spiral vs. elliptical), some spin in opposite directions, and some are bigger than others. However, they all contain stars and possibly solar systems.
How are the centers of many spiral galaxies similar to many elliptical galaxies?
Both have a huge black hole at their center.
Are some irregular galaxies nearly 13 billion light-years from earth?
Yes, they are usually of a similar size range to other types of galaxies, from a few thousand lightyears across to a million or more. Their formation is often as a result of two or more galaxies colliding, or coming close to each other.

Are Irregular galaxies are very large.?
Yes, they are usually of a similar size range to other types of galaxies, from a few thousand lightyears across to a million or more. Their formation is often as a result of two or more galaxies colliding, or coming close to each other.
Explain how all galaxies are similar?
All galaxies are massive clusters of stars scattered across the universe. Many galaxies take the same form, for instance, spiral and elliptical galaxies. Some galaxies also have a black hole in their center.
A galaxy that has a shape similar to a football is a?
Elliptical Galaxy!
Are bowflex elliptical treadmills any good?
A bowflex elliptical treadmill is a different piece of cardio equipment than an regular elliptical. The bowflex elliptical has similar controls as well as a similar motor but is usually more versatile as they provide three different kinds of workouts. They are typically more expensive than a regular elliptical - ranging as high as three thousand.
How is your galaxy similar to other galaxies?
our galaxy the milky way is one of several shapes in the entire universe.All galixys contain clouds of dust that are formed by the galaxy and they also have different shapes.our milky way is a spiral shaped.another could be irregular.
How does the Elliptical machine work your muscles?
Elliptical Machines provide resistance that help build your muscles. The motion of an elliptical is similar to climbing stairs, so it works your quads, calfs, and gluts.
What's life fitness elliptical?
Life fitness elliptical is a type of exercise equipment similar to a cycle only with the use of steps instead of pedals.
How all galaxies are similar?
they all contain billions of stars that orbit the center of the galaxy. all galaxies are also moving very slow.
