Galaxy redshift is much light the Doppler effect. If a galaxy is traveling away from us, the light that it emits and is seen by us is stretched out (the faster we are separating, the stronger the redshift), that means that the wavelegnth is stretched a bit, shifting the light towards red.
The redshift of galaxies is caused by 3 effects: Doppler effect, Expansion of space and gravitational effects. The further away a galaxy is from us the more it is redshifted (from this it can also be deduced that the further a galaxy is from us the faster it is traveling away from us assuming all galaxies started at the same point - aka 'The Big Bang').In short the interpretation of redshift is both speed and distance from us to the galaxy in question.
The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy, just like our own galaxy (the Milky Way).The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy, just like our own galaxy (the Milky Way).The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy, just like our own galaxy (the Milky Way).The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy, just like our own galaxy (the Milky Way).
That is called a globular cluster.
milky way galaxy aka. our galaxy, the same one we r in :)
That the galaxy is moving away from us.
The light from distant galaxies is redshifted. The only reasonable explanation for that is that the galaxies are moving away from us.
Redshifted.

The odds are very much against it. The CMB matches expectations following from the Big Bang too well for it to be coincidental.
The expansion of the Universe results in the light from faraway galaxies being redshifted. This is called the "cosmological redshift"; it can be compared with the Doppler effect (which also causes a redshift), but the details are somewhat difference.It is an observed fact that most galaxies are redshifted; the explanation that seems most reasonable is that it is caused by the cosmological redshift. This means that space itself is expanding.
A spectral line that appears at a wavelength of 321 nm in the laboratory appears at a wavelength of 328 nm in the spectrum of a distant object. We say that the object's spectrum is red shifted.
Our galaxy is a barred spiral galaxy.
The Andromeda Galaxy is a spiral galaxy.
Our galaxy is a spiral galaxy because it is spiral in shape.
