All You Need to Know about Galaxies

Ғылым және технология

EarthSky and Space Oddities joined forces to bring you this video about galaxies. A galaxy is a vast island of gas, dust and stars in an ocean of space. Typically, galaxies are millions of light-years apart. Galaxies are the building blocks of our universe. Their distribution isn’t random, as one might suppose. Instead, galaxies are along unimaginably long filaments across the universe, forming a cosmic web of star cities. A galaxy can contain hundreds of billions of stars and be many thousands of light-years across. Learn more about galaxies in this video.

    Very informative video. Trying to wrap my brain around the vastness of space, the number of galaxies, number of stars in each galaxy, black holes, etc. Truly awesome.

    Thankyou for your video. We are so insignificant as a person when you consider the amount of Stars and Galaxies. Why has nobody from our own Galaxy or another Galaxy directly contacted us?

    The distances between galaxies, and even between stars, are unimaginably vast. We don't know of any kind of signal that might cross them. It's conceivable that we might be missing something that is more advanced than our science, or isolation might just be the way of things.

    An blatantly misleading title to a very sparse intro to galaxies. ;-)

    Oh we're so sorry you don't like it. 😢 We thought it was a lot of good info for a non-technical audience. There's more in this article, which goes with the video: earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/definition-what-is-a-galaxy/
