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 galaxies stationary or randomly moving?
The move around. For example: M31 is moving towards us, and is expected to collide with our galaxy, the Milky Way, in 3 or 4 billion years.
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.
Are any galaxies moving toward the Milky Way galaxy?
Yes. The Andromeda Galaxy, our galactic neighbor, is heading toward the Milky Way and is expected to collide with our own galaxy in about 3 billion years.
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.
Is Milky Way Galaxy cluster of galaxies?
No. It is a single galaxy.
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.
What are the stars in the galaxies?
milky way galaxy
Where does our own galaxy belong what type of galaxy it is?
The Milky Way galaxy belongs to a group of around 50 or so galaxies, called the Local Group. The biggest is the Andromeda Galaxy followed by the Milky Way and the Triangulum. The Milky Way is a spiral galaxy.
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.
