We don't know of any planets that aren't within the Milky Way galaxy, but that doesn't mean much; stars that are not in a galaxy are rare, and the nearest such stars are too far away for us to have any hope of finding any planets.

Who discovered the galaxies exist outside the Milky Way?

The person who discovered the existence of galaxies outside of the milky way was Edwin Hubble. He also discovered that galaxies move away from each other with a constant acceleration, leading to the big bang theory.


What are two important discoveries hubble made that proved other galaxies exist outside our own?

Hubble discovered that the nebulas were galaxies based on the powerful telescope at Mt Wilson. The second discoveries was the red shift relationship v=HD shows that the galaxies were outside our own galaxies definitely and quantitatively, using light sources in galaxies that were standard sources that could calibrate the distance.

Can stars exist outside a galaxy?

Yes, stars can exist outside of a galaxy. These stars are typically referred to as intergalactic stars, and they may have been ejected from their original galaxy due to interactions with other stars or galactic dynamics. Intergalactic stars are typically found in the space between galaxies.


Name of heavenly bodies in space?

Some examples of heavenly bodies in space include stars, planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and meteors. Other space objects like galaxies, nebulae, and black holes also exist in the universe.


How old are barred galaxies?

Barred galaxies per se do not exist. They are just a sub category of spiral galaxies of which about 2/3rds are barred spiral galaxies.


Why do you need galaxies in the solar system?

Galaxies are vast systems of stars, planets, and other celestial bodies that contain our solar system. They provide the cosmic environment and gravitational forces necessary for the formation and stability of solar systems like ours. Without galaxies, solar systems like ours would not exist.


Can Nebula exist only within your galaxy?

No, nebulae are not unique to the Milky Way, there are hundreds that have been identified outside it, and are generally assumed to be present in most if not all other galaxies.
