I do agree that going to a darker site drasticly helps when trying to learn where galaxies are, and it does not have to be that much darker than where you are now. Driving out to a place that is Bortle 5 or 4.5 will drasticly improve your chances of recognizing them. However, that i...
M101 would be the trickiest of these, there are a bunch of brighter galaxies in the area that might be better choices if you just want to see some more galaxies, but if you want M101 specifically, you could try heading somewhere slightly darker to make it a bit easier to pick out the...
but a girl has to start. It’s time to remove the roadblocks, resist the urge to roll up like a pill bug and shop for my new big-girl panties. Perhaps I will head to Victoria’s Secret and settle on an eye-of-the-tiger-wonder-woman hipster. Or (...
People marvel at NASA’s Webb Space Telescope for transmitting images of faraway galaxies and helping to unveil the history of the universe in ways we could not see before. So too do the MagLab’s superconducting magnets reveal secrets previously beyond human imagination. It has helped create med...
Moreover, if the vacuum of space is a vast empty void of nothing, then everything in the universe – all particles, waves, atoms, objects, planets, stars, and galaxies – are separate, distinct, and disconnected objects. If nothing connects the basic building blocks of matter, physical stru...
In the case of WLM, it may have a complete record of those events. Dwarf galaxies are the most common type in the cosmos and tend to be long-lived. WLM is believed to have formed just a few hundred million years after the Big Bang. Its position on the outskirts of the Local Group ...
"Direct measurements, many made with the help of theHubble Space Telescope, confirm the presence of more than 100 supermassive black holes," said Jeremy Schnittman, a theorist at NASA’sGoddard Space Flight Center, in a statement. "How do they get so big? When galaxies collide, their centra...
Each galaxy on average does not move spatially with respect to its tick mark in the spatial (ringed) direction but is carried forward horizontally by the march of time. The total number of galaxies on the spatial ring is conserved as time changes, and therefore their average spacing increases...
- Supernova theory for the origin of heavy elements now widely rejected - Missing uniform distribution of solar system isotopes - Missing billions of years of additional clustering of nearby galaxies - Surface brightness of the furthest galaxies, against a fundamental BB claim, is identical to that...
