954 Questions
Does our Milky Way have two suns?
There are billions of suns in the Milky Way, it's a galaxy. Our milky way is forming about 2 suns per year.
Where is Pegasus in the Milky Way?
Pegasus is a constellation, in other words, a direction in the sky.
Why is it light in the day and dark at night?
It is due to the rotation of the earth as we move around the sun in it's gravational field we also spin and we complete one whole spin every 24hours the reason why it is light in the day time is becasue day time is when we are facing towards the sun and it is dark at night because we are facing away from the sun the earth has no other source of natural light apart fomr the sun! hope this helps
Are there any quasars in the milky way?
No, thank goodness; otherwise life here on Earth would be impossible.
What is the temperature of Milky Way?
The Milky Way is a large galaxy. It has varying temperatures all through the galaxy. Earth is part of the Milky Way. Consider all the different temperatures on Earth.
What does milky-colored ATF indicate?
A milky color indicates that engine coolant has been leaking into the transmission's cooler in the radiator.
Can one tank blow up everything in the galaxy?
Nothing within human power can blow up everything in the galaxy.
Does the milky way galaxy expand?
If you mean by more stars being created in it, then yes. If you mean that the stars in it move apart (as in, away from the centre), then no. Our galaxy is continiously moving away from other galaxys, which has got alot to do with the 'big bang'. So to answer your question, you're going to have to make your own options because your question is too vague.
Can astronauts go outside the Milky Way Galaxy?
Theoretically, yes. However, no human has ever been outside the Milky Way Galaxy and it's not clear that we ever will, either. Most space exploration is done by robots. The Milky Way Galaxy is a collection of millions of stars, including our own solar system. No human has even left our solar system - in fact, humans have not visited any celestial object in the solar system other than the Earth or the Moon. So humans have not even explored all of our solar system, let alone all of the Milky Way Galaxy, let alone anything outside of that.
Further more, only a single robot has ever made it beyond the reaches of our galaxy; dubbed Voyager 1, it has travelled at speeds upwards of 35,000 mps for 25-35 years to reach it's destination.
Below is a pull from Google on it.
- Voyager 1 is a 722-kilogram (1,592 lb) space probe launched by NASA on September 5, 1977, to study the outer Solar System. Operating for 37 years, 5 months and 4 days as of February 9, 2015, the spacecraft communicates with the Deep SpaceNetwork to receive routine commands and return data.
Why can't you take pictures of the milky way from the outside?
It is simply too far a distance. Even traveling at the speed of light it would take thousands of years to leave the galaxy and tens, if not hundreds of thousands of years to see the whole thing in one shot. We have only been sending things into space for a few decades and no probe travels anywhere near the speed of light. The furthest probe we have now took nearly 35 years to travel a distance light would cover in less than a day.
What does a milky way taste like?
Mostly like chocolate. The nougat is a sort of marshmallowy chocolate.
The cluster, which contains the Milky way and more than 50 other galaxies, is called the Local Cluster. The cluster has a diameter of 3.1 million parsecs (10 million light years). The Local Group is part of the much larger Virgo Supercluster.
How is the Milky Way important to us?
The Milky Way is important to us because if it was not here, we would have no living organisms on Earth. In a normal galaxy, with no life on it, has harmful gasses that would go right through the thin atmosphere.
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.
How is the Milky Way and constellation centaurus alike?
They are not. The Milky Way is a galaxy, the constellation Centaurus is just a man made visual representation of something, and bears no relation to a physical entity.
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 third most abundant element in the Milky Way Galaxy?
The third most abundant element in the universe is Oxygen.
What could be beyond the Milky Way?
This is a puzzling question because no one is really sure what's beyond the Milky Way. The question remains a mystery that can not be answered unless we have some kind of advanced technology rocket ship! Maybe in the future we can know.
But my thoughts are that out there, there is a planet just like Earth and someday we will be able to go there and start a new life.
Well , you know it's just my opinion so that doesn't mean it's true but not even scientists have an answer to this question. You know that earth in prehistoric times wasn't actually a planet that people could live on! But it had living equipment such as water and air. Later on people came after apes. So you know people could be civilized monkeys!!
So, some people also think that if you go inside a black hole it could actually lead to more of space! Just like oceans are a part of our Earth unexplored so is the most natural thing SPACE!
What I have said is what people think it may or it may not be true but don't trust this information really much because it might not be true.
I tried my best but this is a puzzling question.

A by-way is a road which is not frequently travelled, or an unpopular or arcane field of study.
What evidence is there that the earth is not the centre of the milky way?
We know that the Earth is not at the center of the Milky Way because we see it over THERE, but not over HERE.
Go to a remote area far away from any artificial lights. Lay down in your sleeping bag and count the stars. You'll see the Milky Way on one side of the Earth, but not anywhere else; therefore, Earth isn't in the middle of it.
