That sounds like the description of an elliptical galaxy.
The central bulge of our Milky Way galaxy contains older stars, mostly red and yellow in color. These stars are typically found in globular clusters and form a dense, spherical region at the core of the galaxy.
It is less likely for stars in the halo of a galaxy to have planets compared to stars in the disk of the galaxy. This is because the halo contains older stars with fewer heavy elements necessary for planet formation. However, some planets could still exist around halo stars, but they would be rare.
The Perseus Arm of the Milky Way galaxy contains the Sun.
Stars in the middle of galaxies are usually found in the galactic disk, where there is a higher concentration of gas and dust that is conducive for star formation. Stars on the outside of galaxies are often located in the galactic halo, which is a more diffuse region that contains older stars and is further away from the dense center of the galaxy. The distribution of stars within a galaxy is influenced by factors such as gravitational interactions and the history of star formation in that region.
A cluster of tightly packed older stars is called a globular cluster. These clusters can contain thousands to millions of stars, and are usually found in the outer regions of galaxies.
Elliptical Galaxies.
It ture
Elliptical Galaxies.
Milky Way: Arms extend from a core full of black holes Elliptical Galaxy: Contains mostly older stars with a red color Irregular Galaxy: Contains dust, gas, and young stars Apex :)
Elliptical galaxies have a red color because the stars in them are older and cooler. An example of an elliptical galaxy is Maffei 1.
Every galaxy contains stars, if that's what you mean. "Galaxy" means "big bunch of stars". No stars ===> no galaxy.
The elliptical galaxy Messier 87 in the Virgo Cluster is known for containing mostly older stars with a reddish color. These stars are typically low in mass and have evolved over billions of years, giving the galaxy its distinct red hue.
The central bulge of our Milky Way galaxy contains older stars, mostly red and yellow in color. These stars are typically found in globular clusters and form a dense, spherical region at the core of the galaxy.
No. A Galaxy contains billions of stars whereas a binary star contains only two stars.
Yes. An average galaxy contains at least 100 billion stars.
The Milky Way galaxy contains mostly older stars with a red color, particularly in the central bulge and halo regions. These stars are typically red giants and red dwarfs, which have aged and evolved from their initial blue color to appear red as they reach the end of their life cycles.
It is less likely for stars in the halo of a galaxy to have planets compared to stars in the disk of the galaxy. This is because the halo contains older stars with fewer heavy elements necessary for planet formation. However, some planets could still exist around halo stars, but they would be rare.
