What else can I help you with?
Other galaxies were first believed to be?
Nebulae or star clusters within the Milky Way Galaxy.
Why do irregular galaxies have no shape?
An irregular galaxy is a galaxy that doesn't have a specific shape like a pinwheel or an elliptical galaxy.
Is there something bigger than a galaxy?
Yes. Galaxy clusters are clusters of galaxies and therefore larger than individual galaxies. Superclusters are clusters of galaxy clusters and so are larger then galaxy clusters. Filaments are collections of superclusters and are the largest known structures in the universe.
According to Hubble's Law the most distant clusters of galaxies are?
The basic idea of Hubble's Law is that galaxies (or galaxy clusters) that are farther away move away from us faster than those that are closer to us.The most distant galaxy yet found is a protogalaxy with the designation UDFj-39546284, with a redshift z = 11.9, about 13.42 billion light-years distant from the Milky Way.In case you are asking for the most distant CLUSTER of galaxies, and not the most distant astronomical galaxy, the answer would be the cluster (or protocluster, science is not yet sure about the nature of this structure) which denomination is BoRG-58 , with a redshift z≅8, and about 12 billion light-years distant from us.
Is the milky way considered a clump of stars?
No. It is a disk-shaped galaxy, like a pinwheel, with several curved radial arms and a large mass at the center. The closest thing to a "clump" of stars are the so-called "globular clusters" which are more spherical in organization than other common galaxies.
What are galaxies that are found in clusters?
Most galaxies, even our own, are found in groups or clusters. For example, the Local Group contains several galaxies including the Milky Way, Andromeda, and the Magellanic clouds.
What are galaxies that travel together through space called?
Galaxies that travel together through space are called galaxy groups or galaxy clusters. These are systems of galaxies bound together by gravity.
Clusters of billions of stars in space are called?
Galaxies
Clusters in billions of stars in space are called?
Galaxies.
Where are open clusters found?
near giant elliptical galaxies.
WHere are global clusters found?
In spiral arms of spiral galaxies
Where are star clusters found?
They are located only in the ARMS of galaxies, not outside.
Can quasars be found in globular clusters or open clusters?
Quasars are related to supermassive black holes in the center of galaxies.
What is composed of galaxies and clusters of galaxies?
A supercluster.
Explain how galaxies are distributed in space?
galaxies are in every direction in space there in clusters and super clusters
Why are supermassive galaxies often found at the cores of rich galaxy clusters?
Because they have the most mass
What are clusters of stars?
galaxies
