Nearly all galaxies have a component of motion directly away from us. The farther a galaxy is from us today, the faster it appears to be receding from us.Nearly all galaxies are moving away from Earth. This is because the universe is expanding.

∙ 14y agoThe universe is expanding, and it was recently discovered that the universe is expanding much faster than was originally thought. Also, objects within the universe are constantly changing, such as the birth and death of stars, expanding and/or contraction of gas clouds, and objects in motion (the spinning of galaxies and solar systems, rogue stars or planets) are constantly changing.

But stars are gaseous, and gravity pulls everything into a sphere unless some other force is at work.

∙ 13y agoNothing! BUT you never know! People say in 2012 it's the end of the world but I don't think that's true, because my mum told me that people were saying that it would be the end of the world in 2000 when I was 7 but it WASN'T! It's Just something people are saying AND I think I know where you got the idea! Because of the movie called 2012! that's just a movie it's not true... maybe...

moon is rotating around the Earth and Earth and other planets are rotating around the sun that all of them are our Solar system.
But this is not End!!!
Because our solar system and about 1000000000 other solar systems are rotating around a Huge Black hole in the Center of our Galaxy But Galaxies are not Rotating!
They are moving but not around anything.
they are receding from Themselves Until all of the universe Stops.
Then they start approaching to the center of Universe.
Center of universe is where that Big bang happened.
But all of these are only Theories of Astronomy science

∙ 13y agoMy name is shaheer age16 1st year student in the universe scientist try to reach such a matter to solve but this is universe is very massive can't even measure so as matter of fact in space it contain no air but astraunuts have developed that in space we have sun moon planet matter mean having place and time

∙ 13y agoThe universe is expanding in all directions. The further a galaxy is from us, the faster it is moving. This logically points to the fact that all the matter in the universe must have originated from a single point in space. This is called the Big Bang theory, because it would have been an immense explosion, and was conclusively proved by Edwin Hubble's observations in 1929, while using the Mount Wilson telescope in California.

The cosmological redshift is a direct measure of the expansion of the universe thus independent of direction?
Actually, no on both counts. The redshift is a DIRECT measure of the fact that distant objects are moving away from us. It IMPLIES the expansion of the universe, but doesn't directly measure it. Also, even if it were, it wouldn't necessarily be independent of direction. One recent study indicates that it might not be, which (if true) means the Universe is not expanding isotropically.
How can you determine the direction in which a comet is moving?
You determine it by were is it moving and when a bright streek is moving
Would a force have to be applied in the same or opposite direction to stop a moving ball?
The opposite direction. To stop a moving object requires an acceleration in the direction opposite its motion.
Shifts the direction of free moving fluids such as air and water?
shift the direction of free moving fluids such as air and water is...............------------------------> CORIOLIS EFFECT:)
Is the mysterious dark matter the fastest-moving material in the universe?
no
Are different galaxies moving in your universe if so in which direction?
Most galaxies move away from us - the farther they are from us, the faster they move away from us. This means that the Universe is expanding.
Are you moving toward a black hole?
Since we are always in motion and we have reason to believe that there are many black holes in the universe, there is bound to be one in the direction that we are moving. So, yes, I am moving toward a black hole. As are you.
In which direction are nearly all galaxies moving relative to earth?
they are moving in all directions away, toward, sideways relative to EarthNearly all galaxies are moving away from the Earth. This is because the universe is expanding.
What if no distant galaxies showed any redshift or blueshift?
It would mean that the universe was radially static. That is, no galaxy was moving towards or away from the earth. This could happen if everything in the whole universe were moving in the same direction at the same [linear or rotational] velocity.
Are the different galaxies in your universe moving and if so in which direction?
No matter in which direction we look, all of the galaxies outside of our "local cluster"are moving away from the earth. And get this ... the farther a galaxy already isfrom us, the faster it's moving away from us.It looks as if we're in the center of everything, and everything is spreading out andmoving away from us. On the other hand, no matter where in the universe an observer might be, it would appear to them that they were at the center, and everything was moving away from them.
Are all galaxies moving away from ours because your galaxy is at the center of the universe?
Other galaxies are moving away because the universe is expanding, but we are not at the centre of the universe.

What is to change direction?
acceleration in a direction that is not parallel to the direction you are moving
What is Changed direction?
acceleration in a direction that is not parallel to the direction you are moving
Does velocity only describes the direction in which an objects moving?
No. Velocity is a vector that describes both the direction in which an object is moving and its speed in that direction.
What direction is the Caribbean plate moving?
northwest they are moving
Are quasars moving towards Earth at very high velocity?
No. Pretty much everything in the Universe is moving away from pretty much everything else in the Universe. This is because the Universe is expanding.
