more than a lifetime
A space shuttle has never left the galaxy and never will. However, theoretically it would take a space shuttle an unimaginable amount of time to leave the galaxy. (I'm sure someone can provide a more precise answer).
No scale was specified. However, if the Earth was one inch, the Andromeda Galaxy would be 29,300,000,000 miles away.
Once we exhaust Earth's resources, there is going to be a war over materials. Recycling will be drastically more enforced, and we will most likely use the recycled materials to leave Earth and find a new home. We would completely destroy Earth, therefore it's unhabitable.
No, a rocket leaving the moon's surface would not require as great a speed or force as one leaving the Earth's surface. This is because the moon has lower gravity than Earth, so the escape velocity required to overcome gravity and leave the moon is lower than that required to leave Earth.
IF the earth was not in the milky way then it would have had to develop in a different galaxy, this would potentially mean that the earths sphere would have a dent half its size (half life radioisotopes) and people could not live on it as there would not be enough of an ozone layer to produce enough oxygen for human beings or other living species
Simple answer no if the Milky Way did not exist there would be no human race. We are part of the Milky Way galaxy in the most fundamental ways. We live here. We evolved here. Every element that goes up to make the Earth and you except hydrogen and most of the helium comes from stars that lived and died billions of years ago within the Milky Way. We owe our entire existence to the Milky Way. It is absolutely probable that life has arisen in far off galaxies. They might even look remarkably like humans although that is very doubtful but still they will not be humans.
Sure. Several of the space probes launched by the USA are not boundto the Earth or the Sun, and are going through the Milky Way. They'llcross the Milky Way and leave it completely in a few hundred thousandyears, if they don't bump into something first.
you could, but the human race does not have the technology to get that far without the crew dying first. It would take too many light years, with we could warp space then yes it can be possible.
We would be a little spec on earth is your answer! -------------------------- We are in an outer arm (spiral) of the milky way galaxy.
its a spiral galaxy and the earth is so far the only planet in the milky way where we know we can live
No. Cause the sun is any star
more than a lifetime
The Milky Way and the Sun aren't "planets", so I suppose it would be Earth by default.
No, thank goodness; otherwise life here on Earth would be impossible.
If the Milky Way was blue it would have to be composed of mainly OB stars. Which would mean our Sun would be an OB star, which would mean that Earth would be too hot to sustain life, so therefore this question would not exist. QED
It would take approximately 25,000 light-years to travel from Earth to the center of the Milky Way galaxy at the speed of light. This journey is not currently possible with our current technology as it would require significantly advanced propulsion systems and energy sources.
