What else can I help you with?
What type of galaxy has a dense cluster of matter at its gravitational center with bands of matter that spin outward like arms?
Spiral galaxies
What is a central dominant galaxy?
A central dominant galaxy is typically the largest and most massive galaxy at the center of a galaxy cluster. It is surrounded by smaller satellite galaxies and can influence the dynamics and evolution of the entire cluster through its strong gravitational pull. These galaxies often exhibit unique properties compared to other galaxies in the cluster.
What is a central dominance?
A giant elliptical galaxy at the center of a dense cluster
What is a spherical cluster of stars?
That is called a globular cluster.
What are boundaries of a galaxy?
A point where the center does not have gravitational pull... once things stop orbiting thats it for the galaxy
Is a clump cluster galaxy a type of peculiar galaxy?
Yes, a clump cluster galaxy is a type of peculiar galaxy.
How does gravity effect earths motion?
All of the earth's motion is completely determined by gravity: the gravitational pull on the earth by the sun (and the larger outer planets), the gravitational pull of the Milky Way galaxy on the sun, the gravitational pull of our local cluster on the Milky Way galaxy and so on, up the ladder.
What is the name for a group of galaxies?
A group of galaxies is called a galaxy cluster or galaxy group.
Does the sun orbit something?
Yes, the sun is orbiting the center of the galaxy. what? that's a load of rubbish, it IS the center of the galaxy. the MILKY WAY galaxy, that's why there IS a galaxy, because its gravitational pull pulled planets into orbit, thus CREATING one!
What major galaxy other than our own is in our galaxy cluster?
Andromeda Galaxy - M31 Our Galaxy cluster is called "The local group".
Is Andromeda galaxy bigger than a galaxy cluster?
A galaxy cluster consists of several galaxy groups, each of which in turn contains several galaxies. So no; a galaxy cluster is MUCH bigger than any individual galaxy.
What has the strongest gravitational?
The largest black hole has the strongest gravitational field. We do not know where that would be, but it is most likely in the center of a galaxy somewhere in the universe.
