What are football shaped galaxies called?
They are elliptical galaxies.
Are lenticular galaxies lens-shaped?
Yes, lenticular galaxies are lens-shaped. They will not have spiral arms.
What is one way that an elliptical galaxy differs from the other types of galaxies?
Elliptical galaxies are large blob shaped galaxies that most galaxies will eventually look like. Elliptical galaxies are what happens when two or more large galaxies collide and coalesce.
Are ring galaxies ring-shaped?
Yes, ring galaxies are actually ring-shaped, with a circle-like appearance.
What is a galaxy that is shaped like lens and has no arms?
Elliptical galaxies, Lenticular galaxies and Irregular galaxies.
Galaxies are classified by their shape what are they called?
There are three types of galaxies, all of which are the same, with the exception of their shapes. There are the Elliptical galaxies (football-shaped) the Spiral galaxies (like the Milky way; vortex-shaped) and Irregular galaxies (all shapes other than spiral and football shaped).
What is three dimensional galaxies that can be shaped like a football that can be shaped like a football?
I think elliptical galaxies are the galaxies you are referring to. Scientist normally describe them as a flatted disk shape. These galaxies contain mainly older stars.
Are peculiar galaxies strange in shape?
Yes, peculiar galaxies are strangely shaped.
Is are galaxy flat?
No, galaxies are three dimensional. Do you mean are there galaxies without a bulge in the center? That answer is yes. Some are shaped like balls, some have irregular shapes, and the rest (which is really most of them) are shaped like discs. Almost all disc-shaped galaxies have a bulge in them, but there are a few that do not have any bulge at all- they are flat discs. Just like a CD.
What are the 3 common galaxies?
galaxie 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5
What is the Name of an oddly shaped galaxy?
There are many "odd" shaped galaxies. Do a google search for irregular galaxies and take your pick. See related question.
Galaxies shaped like footballs are blank galaxies?
Galaxies shaped like footballs are known as elliptical galaxies. They typically have an elongated, oval shape and lack the distinct structures, such as spiral arms, found in spiral galaxies. Elliptical galaxies can vary in size and brightness, and they often contain older stars with little ongoing star formation.
