the closest galaxy to us is Andromeda.
Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky of earth not a galaxy
A powerful jet emitted by a black hole can have significant effects on a nearby galaxy. It can heat up the gas in the galaxy, disrupt star formation, trigger the formation of new stars, and even expel gas from the galaxy, influencing its evolution and morphology.
In the 2012 movie "Supernova," a massive star in a nearby galaxy is shown to be on the verge of a supernova explosion. This event threatens nearby planets and prompts a rescue mission by a spaceship crew to save potential survivors who are stranded on a mining colony.
Nearby galaxies won't show much of a redshift, because they aren't moving away very quickly - or at all. For example, the Andromeda Galaxy, M31, is actually getting closer - and will collide with the Milky Way in about 3 billion years.
No, a globular cluster is a group of stars that are part of a galaxy. The Virgo cluster is much bigger. It is a large nearby group of galaxies.
Two nearby galaxies are Andromeda galaxy and Triangulum galaxy. Andromeda galaxy is about 2.56 million light years away from us. Triangulum galaxy is about 3 million light years away from us.

That is unrelated to age. An irregular galaxy is one that has been distored by the gravity of nearby galaxies.

It is called R136a1. It is in a star cluster in a nearby galaxy.

The most accurate method for determining the distance to a nearby galaxy is through the use of parallax measurements, which involve observing the slight shift in position of the galaxy against background stars as the Earth orbits the Sun. This method allows for precise calculations of the galaxy's distance based on trigonometry.
The Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud are two nearby dwarf galaxies. Two larger galaxies that are still part of our local group are the Andromeda Galaxy (a.k.a. M31), and the Triangulum Galaxy. All of the above-named galaxies can be seen with the naked eye.
A galaxy is a cluster of stars and gasses and a planet is something that goes around a star. Can you see why this might not make sense?
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.
The Large Magellanic Cloud is a nearby galaxy, once thought to be a satellite of our own. At a distance of slightly less than 50 kiloparsecs (≈157,000 light years), it is the third closest galaxy to our Milky Way Galaxy.
