A "spiral" galaxy.
Blank is the stars formed a large collection shaped like a lens or thick disk?
A galaxy.
What is the milky way shaped like?
The milky way galaxy is a barred spiral shaped galaxy.
Is a milkyway shaped like a football?
No, the Milky Way is not shaped like a football. It is more accurately described as a barred spiral galaxy, featuring a flat disk with spiral arms and a central bulge. While it does have some elongated features due to its spiral structure, its overall shape resembles a flattened disk rather than a football.
What is three dimensional galaxies that can be shaped like a football that can be shaped like a football?
I think elliptical galaxies are the galaxies you are referring to. Scientist normally describe them as a flatted disk shape. These galaxies contain mainly older stars.
What are words that describe elliptical galaxy?
They are shaped like a round galaxy and they are flat
What shape is the Andromeda galaxy?
The Andromeda Galaxy is spiral shaped, much like our own Milky Way Galaxy.See related link for a pictorial.
How are elliptical galaxies different from spiral galaxy's?
An elliptical galaxy is round. A spiral galaxy is shaped like a spiral.
What kind of galaxy is shaped like a ball and contains older stars?
An elliptical galaxy is the type of galaxy that can have a rounded, ball-like or oval shape and is primarily composed of older stars. Unlike spiral galaxies, elliptical galaxies do not have prominent spiral arms, and they generally contain much less gas and dust. Because there is less material available for forming new stars, their stellar populations are typically older and often appear reddish in color. Elliptical galaxies range from nearly spherical systems to elongated ellipsoids. A nearly spherical example is Messier 89 (M89), which NASA describes as an elliptical galaxy that appears almost perfectly spherical. These galaxies are important for understanding galaxy formation and evolution. Astronomers believe many elliptical galaxies developed through collisions and mergers involving other galaxies, which helped shape their smooth structures and influenced their stellar populations.
What type of galaxy is shaped like an egg?
An egg-shaped galaxy is called an elliptical galaxy. In the Hubble Sequence, they would be E3 or E5 Galaxies. However, there is a galaxy called the "Fried Egg Galaxy" NGC 7742 which looks - not surprisingly, like a fried egg; however, it is a unbarred spiral galaxy.
Is a V-shaped galaxy a type of peculiar galaxy?
No, a V-Shaped galaxy is not a type of peculiar galaxy.
Is a tadpole-shaped galaxy a type of peculiar galaxy?
A tadpole shaped galaxy is not any type of peculiar galaxy.
