The ‘Andromeda Galaxy’ is the farthest celestial object that can be seen with the naked eye from Earth.It is scientifically known as M31 and NGC224.380 million years after the beginning of the universe, That means the Andromeda Galaxy was created 1000 million years ago.While there are ten billion stars in our galaxy, the Milky Way,…
One of the recipients of the 2020 Nobel Prize is Andrea Guess, an American researcher. Andrea and her colleague Renard Gazelle won the award for discovering an unknown object in the center of the Milky Way galaxy, which includes our Earth. That unknown object was nothing else. A black hole or black hole. Sagittarius AOur…
Well, here’s a close-up image of the Andromeda Galaxy – each dot is a star This image was taken by the Hubble Space Telescope, the largest and sharpest image ever taken from the Andromeda Galaxy. The full image contains 1.5 billion pixels and spans over 600 HD television screens. Astronomers estimate that the Andromeda Galaxy…
Everyone has heard of moons.Satellites are objects that orbit the planets.It is as natural as the moon and has artificial satellites like ISS and Insat.Small objects orbiting large objects are commonly called moons. Similarly, smaller galaxies orbiting larger galaxies are called satellite-galaxies.That satellite galaxy will also contain billions of stars. But it’s only going to…
IC 1101 is the largest galaxy ever discovered in our universe of 100 billion galaxies. IC 1101 is one of hundreds of galaxies in the galaxy cluster ABEL 2029, about 100 million light-years away.The idea of a galaxy was first proposed by the scientist Thomas Wright in 1750, but no one accepted his idea, as…
M82, an example of a Starburst galaxy. Its star formation rate is about ten times that of normal galaxies. Stars in galaxies are formed from cold gas that turns into giant molecular clouds. Some galaxies have very high star formation rates. This phenomenon is known as starburst. However, if star formation continues at this high…
Galaxies can be classified into three main types: elliptical, spiral, and irregular. Hubble’s morphological classification is a more detailed taxonomic method. Since the Hubble method classifies galaxies only on the basis of shape, it ignores the rate of star formation in Starburst galaxies and the number of active galaxies. Elliptical. (Elliptical galaxy) The Hubble taxonomy…
IC 1101 Galaxy is the largest galaxy we have ever discovered. Hal The Halo of this galaxy is estimated to be about 2 million light-years from its core. 110 IC 1101 is located in the center of the Abel2029 Galaxy Cluster, 1.04 billion light-years from Earth.G The galaxy was discovered by British astronomer Frederick William…
