A group of galaxies is called a galaxy cluster or galaxy group.
Earth is part of the Sol Constellation which belongs to the Milky Way Galaxy.
une galaxie (fem.) is the French spelling of a galaxy.
We orbit the sun, which in turn orbits the center of the galaxy.
The galaxy was formed from the attraction of stars which in our galaxy orbit a massive black hole.
Yes the sun does orbit the Galaxy. It is believed the 1 complete orbit takes about 220 million years.
Yes, the sun is orbiting the center of the galaxy. what? that's a load of rubbish, it IS the center of the galaxy. the MILKY WAY galaxy, that's why there IS a galaxy, because its gravitational pull pulled planets into orbit, thus CREATING one!
Galaxies form groups called galaxy clusters, so they would orbit the center of mass of the galaxy clusters, just as our Solar System orbits the center of mass of our galaxy.Galaxies form groups called galaxy clusters, so they would orbit the center of mass of the galaxy clusters, just as our Solar System orbits the center of mass of our galaxy.Galaxies form groups called galaxy clusters, so they would orbit the center of mass of the galaxy clusters, just as our Solar System orbits the center of mass of our galaxy.Galaxies form groups called galaxy clusters, so they would orbit the center of mass of the galaxy clusters, just as our Solar System orbits the center of mass of our galaxy.
Since Betelgeuse is a nearby star (compared to the size of the galaxy, that is), you can assume that it takes about the same time as our Solar System to orbit the galaxy - approximately 240 million years.
No, the sun does not orbit a black hole in the center of our galaxy. The sun orbits around the center of the Milky Way galaxy, where there is a supermassive black hole called Sagittarius A.
in orbit
It doesn't. The moon orbits the earth, and the earth orbits the sun, and the sun orbits the center of the galaxy. And the galaxy doesn't orbit anything.

The clusters are the solar systems that orbit the galaxy.
We orbit the sun, which in turn orbits the center of the galaxy.
