Do scientists still explore the Milky Way Galaxy and find new things?
Most of the observation astronomers make are inside our Galaxy. Of course we still find new things. The Milky Way is a very complex and diverse collection of celestial objects. We still have much to learn!
What is significant about the Milky Way galaxy?
For several decades, astronomers believed that the Milky Way galaxy was a spiral galaxy similar to M31 in Andromeda. But recent observations indicate that the Milky Way may actually be a "barred spiral" galaxy.In either event, the Sun and our solar system are about 2/3 of the way out on one of the spiral arms, a very long way from the center of the Milky Way. Which is probably just as well, as recent research indicates that many galaxies including ours may have supermassive black holes at the center. So anywhere near the center of the galaxy would probably be a very nasty place to be!
What was the new pledge from Stargirl?
The pledge in Stargirl is: "I pledge allegiance to United Turtles of America and to the fruit bats of Borne, one planet in the Milky Way, incredible, with justice and black bean burritos for all
What happened to Earth in the TV show Firefly?
In the Firefly universe, details on why humans left "Earth-that-was" have been vague. What we could assume based on the series and from the film is that the planet could no longer sustain the growing population. So, they left Earth and repopulated themselves in multiples planets ("New Earths") in another part of the galaxy. In the film Serenity, the voiceover says they found a "new galaxy", but considering Earth's past is vague, the population could have relocated to another part of our galaxy.
Are quasars and active galaxies cosmic cannibals?
well actually all galaxies are active, and yes they do combine after a dance across the sky, and the center of the galaxies combine, I wouldn't call it eating though because all they do is combine with each other. ______________________________________________________________________ The Andromeda galaxy is approaching our Galaxy at about 300 Km/s, and the collision between both galaxies will take place in about 4.5 billion years. Andromeda galaxy is larger in both astronomical size and number of stars than the Milky Way, although Andromeda may not be the most massive, as recent findings suggest that the Milky Way may contain more Dark Matter, and so could be most massive than Andromeda (galaxy Messier 31 or National General Catalog 224). Who will «eat» who? Bets are accepted...
Did any new planet exist in the milky way?
Milky way could be a name of our galaxy.as we knew galaxy have had millions of planets..........so there could be a new planet could exist
Is the Milky Way visible from Italy?
Under optimal conditions (absence of clouds, and the phase of the moon being new moon) yes, the milky way is the galaxy that this planet resides in.
What galaxy is new London located?
Our local galaxy is the Milky Way.
Where within the Milky Way are new stars being formed?
Inside the Milky Way galaxy.....
The Milky Way galaxy contains instellar matter may?
The Milky Way Galaxy contains interstellar matter that may form new stars.
What effect can the milky way planet have?
The Milky Way galaxy is not a planet; it is a vast collection of stars, gas, and dust. However, the gravitational pull of the Milky Way can influence the motion of planets within our solar system, including Earth, as well as other celestial bodies. Additionally, the Milky Way's spiral arms are regions where new stars are born, potentially shaping the evolution of planetary systems within them.
What other planets are after Pluto in the Milky Way Galaxy?
Pluto is no longer classified as a planet, but as a new type of object called a dwarf planet. There are three planets in out solar system orbiting beyond Pluto: Haumea, Makemake, and Eris. None of these were ever classified as planets. Outside our solar system there are over 1,050 known planets orbiting other stars in the Galaxy. The total number of planets in the Galaxy is estimated to be 100 billion to 400 billion.
What type of galaxy has giant bright new stars around the edges and older stars in the middle?
a spiral galaxy like the milky way
What galaxy are humans apart of?
Humans are a part of the Milky Way galaxy. It is a spiral galaxy that contains our solar system and billions of other stars, planets, and celestial objects.
A galaxy with a bulge at its center and spiral arms?
This type of galaxy is categorized as a spiral galaxy. The bulge at the center contains older stars, while the spiral arms consist of younger stars and gas and dust regions where new star formation occurs. The Milky Way is an example of a galaxy with a bulge and spiral arms.
What will happen to the milky way galaxy in the universe?
Difficult to know for certain. However, it seems likely that the Milky Way galaxy will collide with the Andromeda Galaxy in about 3.4 billion years or so. The supermassive black holes that are believed to be in the centers of many galaxies (including the Milky Way) will probably merge, and most of the stars of the combined galaxy will eventually settle into position in the new galaxy. But some stars will likely be flung out into interstellar space.
Which galaxy is closest to the Milky Way?
Ah, what a great question! The little galaxy right next door to us is called the Andromeda galaxy. It's like our neighbor in this big galactic community we all live in. Just imagine all the stunning colors our universe shares with Andromeda!
