Galaxies

Galaxies are large systems of stars and interstellar matter, and they contain billions of stars. Our own galaxy, the Milky Way, has 200 to 400 billion stars, and there are over one billion known galaxies. Questions that have to do with galaxies in general and specific galaxies are perfect for this category!

Does galaxy y has wifi direct?

No. Right now it is only in android 4.0 or above.

What is the hottest planet in milky way galaxy?

It is not known, since we don't know all the planets in the galaxy, but in our solar system Mercury is the hottest planet, since it's closest to the sun. The hottest planet in Milky Way would be some planet closest to the biggest and hottest star there is. that is wrong, venus, due to it's hot surface and acid gases and things like that, make it the hottest planet.

Mercury has no atmosphere, and Venus has a large CO2 high pressure atmosphere, hence Venus is hotter than Mercury!

Is Sirius related to Milky Way?

Yes. As with all the stars you see in the sky, Sirius is part of the Milky Way.

What is the estimated number of galaxies in the universe?

The observable Universe is estimated to have around 1011 (a hundred billion) galaxies. The entire Universe is much bigger than that, but it isn't known how much bigger. Perhaps it is infinite, in which case it might have an infinite number of galaxies.

What do nebulas form?

The nebula forms into a protostar.

If the fastest spacecraft built by humans goes 30 kilometers per second how long would this spacecraft take to cross the galaxy if it has to travel 100000 light years?

The Milky Way is approx 9.5x10^17 Km across. So, divide that by 30 Km/s and you'll get 3.16x10^16 seconds then divide by 60sec/min, divide that by 60min/hour, divide that by 24 hr/day, divide that by 365 day/year and you get about 1 billion years and some change (not including leap years, but when dealing with a number this big, it really doesn't matter does it?)

Hope that answers your question.

What are two mechanisms that cause the number of stars in the galaxy to increase?

One way to increase the number of stars in a galaxy is for the two galaxies to collide.

How long does it take for a galaxy cluster to form?

The time it takes for a cluster galaxy to form would be 13.99 BILLION years....

Where does the whole Universe end?

The universe does not end. It continues far beyond our perception of infinity. You can read more about it in books by Stephen Hawkings.

The universe transcends time and it then becomes actual "travel through time" instead of a beginning and end. The universe, as we little, insignificant humans, is without time. We are withough beginning or end (see basics of the Buddhist faith, or the Sennin, Gyoga or Yamabushi sects of ancient Japan).

Also, some quantum physicists are now thinking they will be able to transcend and actually move through time in the very near "future"!

Hope this helps a little bit!

What is a round galaxy?

a round galaxy is a spiral galaxy.

What shape does an spiral galaxy have?

First of all, it's a spiral galaxy, not an spiral galaxy. Second, a spiral galaxy would have a spiral shape, obviously.

Are irregular galaxies shapeless?

Yes, irregular galaxies are all shapeless. None of them have a distinct shape.

How far is the Tarantula Nebula?

The Tarantula Nebula (also known as 30 Doradus, or NGC 2070) is an H II region in the Large Magellanic Cloud.

It is approximately 160,000 light years from us.

See related link for more information.

How many srars does a elliptical galaxy have?

It depends on the size of the elliptical gallery, but you may be sure that there are many billions of stars in one.

Where is zeta reticuli located in the milky-way galaxy?

Zeta Reticuli (ζ Ret, ζ Reticuli) is a Binary_starsystem located about 39 Light-year(12 Parsec) away from Earth. It is located in the constellation Reticulum, and is visible to the unaided eye in very dark skies. Because of the southerly location of the system, it is not visible north of the Tropics.

What is the difference between star and galaxy?

The Galaxy, also call the Milky Way, is made of stars. Other, distant star systems are called galaxies (lower case g) by analogy.

How do the spectra of some stars shift?

There is a Doppler shift which results from the relative motion of the star in question, either toward or away from us as we observe it.

What is the purpose of a spiral cut hams?

Some people have difficulty making clean slices of ham. Using spiral cut hams makes it easy to get clean slices.

Milky Way how many sun like ours?

A rough guess puts the number at 1 in 13 of all stars on the main sequence are type G stars - similar class to our Sun.

So around 7.5 billion to 30 billion.
