Galaxy, even though it was not yet known whether these correlations were applicable to other galaxies. As various types of galaxies were explored more completely, it became clear that the mix of populations in galaxies was correlated with Hubble type.Spiral galaxiessuch as the Milky Way Galaxy ...
The dispute was resolved when Edwin Hubble's measurements of Cepheid variable stars proved Andromeda was located far outside the Milky Way. Modern estimates suggest theAndromeda galaxy, our nearest galaxy neighbor is 2.5 million light-years away. More recently, astronomers have been trying to figure...

Evolution of Milky Way Galaxy Revealed by Hubble Space Telescope The structure of the Milky Way The Milky Way is composed of three main parts: a central bulge, a relatively flat disk and a roughly spherical surrounding halo. The halo consists of globular clusters— densely packed conglomeration...
The mass distribution within the Galaxy closely resembles the SBc Hubble classification, which is a spiral galaxy with relatively loosely wound arms.[33] Astronomers first began to suspect that the Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy, rather than an ordinary spiral galaxy, in the 1990s.[34] ...
Besides our Milky Way galaxy, there are millions and millions of galaxies in the known universe. The Hubble Space Telescope discovered more than 10,000 galaxies by viewing a small part of space continuously for 12 days. What is the Milky Way?
This image taken by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope's Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) shows a beautiful spiral galaxy called NGC 6744. At first glance, it resembles our Milky Way albeit larger, measuring more than 200,000 light-years across compared to a 100,000-light-year diameter for ...
Combining the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys (HST/ACS), Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 (HST/WFC3) and JWST/NIRCam datasets, we carefully measured ceers-2112 photometry and derived that the galaxy has a photometric redshift of\({z}_{{\rm{phot}}}={3.03}_{...
Highlights the 75th anniversary of astronomer Edwin Hubble's public disclosure of his finding that at least one galaxy of stars lies outside the Milky Way. Debate among 19th century astronomers over the nature of nebulae; Details of Hubble's research into spiral nebulae; Impact of Hubble's ...
