What color are distant galaxy's?
They are red shifted.
Which is the most distant galaxy visible to the unaided eye?
The Andromedia.
Quasar in a sentence?
Astronomers have detected a quasar in a distant galaxy.
Can you measure distant galaxies?
Yes. What is it you want to measure about a galaxy?
Is it the most distant dwarf galaxy when it's 13.2 billion light years from Earth?
Yes, it's the most distant dwarf galaxy 13.2 billion light-years from Earth (i.e. PCB2012 3020 in the MACS J1149+2223 galaxy cluster).
How does light from distant galaxy . galaxy out side of 32000000 light years support the big bang theory?
The light from distant galaxies is redshifted. The only reasonable explanation for that is that the galaxies are moving away from us.
Is it the most distant dwarf galaxy when it's 13.3 billion light years from Earth?
Yes, it's the most distant dwarf galaxy 13.3 billion light-years from Earth (i.e. CZC2013 MACS0647-JD1 in the MACS J0647+7015 galaxy cluster).
Is it the most distant spiral galaxy when it's 10.7 billion light years from Earth?
Yes, it's the most distant spiral galaxy 10.7 billion light-years from Earth (i.e. BX442 in the Pegasus constellation).
Describe two key aspects of quasars?
Bright, distant, powerful, energetic, at the center of the galaxy.
Why do scientist study distant galaxies to learn about early galaxy's?
If you look at a distant galaxy, the light from the galaxy has travelled for perhaps a hundred million years, a billion years, or up to an age close to the age of the Universe (13 billion years or so), depending on the galaxy's distance. Thus, the light you see shows you how the Universe was billions of years ago.
Does gravitational lensing magnify distant galaxies at distances up to 13 billion light years behind galaxy clusters?
Yes. Lensing magnifies the image of galaxies behind distant galaxy clusters but also greatly distorts the image.
Is it the most distant irregular galaxy when it's 13.4 billion light years from Earth?
Yes, it's the most distant irregular galaxy 13.4 billion light-years from Earth (i.e. GN-z11 in the Ursa Major constellation).
