Scientist believe the galaxies known as irregular galaxies are the result of several different outcomes, for instance the merger of a pair of galaxies, or a wondering galaxy that strays to close to a neighboring galaxy. There are many different explanations for why irregular galaxies occur.

It's called the big bang theory. Google it for lots of information.

What evidence in 1956 that supports the big bang theory?

1) The existence, isotropy, and spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation. It was predicted sixteeen years before it was detected, and has been found to be exactly as proponents of Big Bang Cosmology (BBC) say it should be. All other hypotheses are reduced to saying, "I know the CMBR is there, I just have no explanation for it." 2) The red-shift of all distant galaxies, with the size of the red shift being proportional to the galaxies' distance from us. All observations of this red shift support a Universe that was far denser about 13.7 billion years ago. 3) The ratio of hydrogen and helium in our Universe is exactly as predicted by BBC. 4) Quasars are distant from us (ie, far in our past), but none are close. 5) The ratio of isotopes with long half-lives to their decay products show none of the former existed prior to about 12 billion years ago. 6) No white dwarf stars -- which will remain stable for tens of trillions of years -- have been found older than about ten billion years. The evidence for BBC is as strong as the evidence that our Earth goes around our Sun.

How is cosmic dust made?

Cosmic dust is made of dust grains and aggregates into dust particles. These particles are irregularly shaped, with porosity ranging from fluffy to compact. The composition, size, and other properties depend on where the dust is found, and conversely, a compositional analysis of a dust particle can reveal much about the dust particle's origin.

How do cosmic background radiation the chemical composition of the universe redshift of light and movement of galaxies support the theory of the Big Bang?

Redshift: The only reasonable explanation for the redshift is that most galaxies are moving away from us.As for the cosmic background radiation and the chemical composition, both of these closely match what is expected from the models about the Big Bang.


What is the cosmic evolution?

That may refer to how the Universe has evolved, and will continue evolving. The Universe is believed to have stared very dense and hot, and then it expanded to its present form - with galaxies, stars, etc. gradually forming over time.For more details, check the Wikipedia article on "Chronology of the Universe".


What do we call objects that emit light in space?

Stars, quasars, clusters, nebulae, galaxies, superclusters, the CMBR (Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation).


Astronomer tell us that when galaxies collide no spectacular explosions take place The two galaxies simply pass through each other Explain why this is so?

galaxies are mainly created out of gases and cosmic dust, so they can't crash. only individual bodies inside a galaxy can crash together


How ia cosmic background radiation related to the big bang theory?

The cosmic background radiation is believed to be the remains of the radiation emitted by the Universe when it started to get transparent - when it had cooled down to a temperature of about 3000 kelvin.


What did planets do to form red shift and big bang?

Nothing at all. Planets are cosmic afterthoughts, mere crumbs left over from the birth of the universe and that stars and galaxies that fill it.

What is the evidance for the big bang?

The expansion of the Universe, as can be seen by the redshift of distant galaxies; also, the cosmic background radiation. Read the Wikipedia article on "Big Bang" for more details.


Why was the COBE important to the big bang theory?

The COBE (Cosmic Background Explorer) was important to the big bang theory because it provided very precise measurements of the cosmic microwave background radiation. These measurements confirmed the existence of this radiation and provided strong evidence for the theory of the big bang, which suggests that the universe began with a hot, dense, and expanding state. The COBE's findings supported the idea that the cosmic microwave background radiation is a remnant of the early stages of the universe.


What causes the light from far away galaxies to bend?

If the light from a distance galaxy passes near a massive cosmic object, then the gravity of that object will distort space-time. That will cause the light to bend.


Why are cosmic rays produced?

The origin of cosmic rays, which are actually not electromagnetic radiation but rather particles, protons and atomic nuclei - continues to be mysterious, but they are believed to be created during supernova explosions, and also likely created by active galactic nuclei.
