Names have been assigned to celestial bodies by astronomers and others. That does not mean that every celestial body has been given its own name. The Sun is what we call the body that Earth revolves around. That name is not usually gtiven to any other celestial body.
Over 100 billion just in ourgalaxy. So more than 100 billion stars in a galaxy!
Planets orbit stars, stars orbit a galaxy. Planets are not "on" anything. A lot of stars out there have planets - we are just finding out how many now that we have better techniques to find them. So probably all galaxies have at least some stars with planets.
The NGC 1300 galaxy is about 110,000 light-years across; just slightly larger than our own galaxy, the Milky Way.
No. Dwarf planets orbit stars just like planets do. Stars orbit the center of their galaxy. An object orbiting a planet would be a moon.
No, just one - our sun. Our galaxy, on the other hand, contains between 100-400 billion stars.
We expect the Andromeda galaxy to be just like our own Milky Way galaxy. We can see stars (suns) in the Andromeda Galaxy and just as stars have planets orbiting them in our galaxy, we believe that there must be planets also orbiting stars in the Andromeda galaxy.
There are billions of stars in galaxies, so it is not possible to provide a comprehensive list of their names. Some well-known stars include our Sun (Sol), Alpha Centauri, Sirius, Betelgeuse, and Proxima Centauri. Different stars in the same galaxy are typically given designations based on their location and other characteristics.
Over 100 billion just in ourgalaxy. So more than 100 billion stars in a galaxy!
trillions If our galaxy with 2*1011 (two hundred billion) stars is an average size galaxy. and there are as many galaxies in the Universe as there are stars in our galaxy, then there are possibly 4*1022 stars in the Universe. But that is just a guess. There are most certainly more than 1018 stars.
When you look up into the night sky, there is only one thing yo can see (with good seeing conditions) that is outside of our galaxy, and that is the Andromeda Galaxy. Every other thing you see in the night sky is here in our galaxy. Any basic book on astronomy gives the names of scores of well-known stars. Just a small handful here: Castor, Pollux, Rigel, Sirius, Vega, Polaris, Spica, Regulus.
Super Mario Galaxy 2 has 242 stars in the game, just like the prequel. However, the green stars only appear after you get 120 stars.Green stars appear in every galaxy (except Grandmaster Galaxy). Usually there are 2-3 green stars in a galaxy. Now the objective is to find the hidden stars in the galaxy, which can prove quite challenging.After getting all the green stars, you end up with 240 stars, which will unlock the final galaxy: the aforementioned Grandmaster Galaxy. There are 2 stars in the galaxy, which will bring the total to a satisfying 242.So in summary, you can only get the green stars after having 120 stars.I hope that helped!- Ryanthelion
No. The Milky Way galaxy is just one of billions of galaxies in the Universe. Just like there are billions of planets in the Milky Way Galaxy, there are also comparable numbers of planets in other galaxies.
Over 100 billion just in ourgalaxy. So more than 100 billion stars in a galaxy!
No. The big dipper is just a small collection of a handful of stars. All stars that you see in the sky are part of the Milky Way Galaxy, which is composed of hudreds of billions of stars.
A galaxy. We live in one corner of a galaxy that we have named the "Milky Way" galaxy. It is thought to contain anywhere from 200 to perhaps 400 billion stars. The grouping of billions of stars, gas, and dust into a physically metastable rotating state by gravity is, by definition, a galaxy.
If our sun did not exist the other stars would be little different from the way they are. The sun is just one of billions of stars in the galaxy. Many of the stars we see in the sky are larger than our own sun.
Every star is a sun, just in a different galaxy.
