What else can I help you with?
Where are most of the Milky Way's globular clusters found?
the halo
Is the sun in the Milky Way galactic halo?
It is not. On the other hand, the Milky way sun creates the halo. When you see milky from above, it is diffucult to notice the halo. If you shift or rotate the view, you can see that the Milky way halo is a cicurference with the sun in the center and it covers all planets circling this sun. The term galactic halo is used to denote an extended, roughly spherical component of a galaxy, which extends beyond the main, visible component. It can refer to any of several distinct components which share these properties
How are stars in the disk of the milky way different from stars in the bulge or halo?
The ones in the bulge or halo are older star, the ones in the disk are younger.
Where in space would you look for a globular cluster?
In the Milky Way galactic halo, orbiting the galactic center in a long elliptical orbit around the galactic center
What has thin gas and clusters of stars that surround the disk of the Milky Way?
The thin gas and clusters of stars that surround the disk of the Milky Way are part of its halo. This halo contains a vast amount of dark matter, as well as globular clusters, which are tightly bound groups of older stars. The gas in the halo is primarily hot, diffuse gas that contributes to the overall structure and dynamics of the galaxy. These components play a crucial role in the formation and evolution of the Milky Way.
What do the halo and the bulge of the milky way's suggest?
The halo and bulge of the Milky Way suggest a complex structure and formation history of our galaxy. The halo, composed of older stars and globular clusters, indicates an early phase of galaxy formation and ongoing interactions with smaller galaxies. In contrast, the bulge, which contains a denser concentration of stars and possibly a supermassive black hole at its center, points to processes of star formation and dynamical interactions over time. Together, these features highlight the Milky Way's evolution and the influences of gravitational forces and stellar dynamics.
What is the Milky Way in the sky?
There no milky way in sky there is only milky way galaxy
What galaxy is called the Milky Way?
The Milky Way galaxy is.... called the Milky Way Galaxy
What is the collection of ancient stars found in the center of the local group called?
The collection of ancient stars found in the center of the Local Group is called the Galactic Halo. The Galactic Halo is a spherical region of space that surrounds the disk of the Milky Way galaxy. It is made up of old, metal-poor stars that are thought to have formed very early in the history of the Milky Way. The Galactic Halo is also home to globular clusters, which are dense groups of hundreds of thousands of stars. The Galactic Halo is thought to be the remnant of a smaller galaxy that merged with the Milky Way billions of years ago. The merger caused the smaller galaxy to be torn apart, and its stars were scattered into the Galactic Halo. The Galactic Halo is a very sparsely populated region of space. The stars are so far apart that they are difficult to see individually with the naked eye. However, the Galactic Halo can be seen in the night sky as a faint glow of light.
What would a spiral galaxy look like if you were looking out from inside the halo but outside the disk?
It would appear as a cloud of stars, just like the Milky Way.
What is the name of galaxy of the earth?
The galaxy that contains Earth and the rest of the Solar system is the Milky Way galaxy.
How far is the earth from Milky Way?
Zero. We are in it
