Andromeda Galaxy

in the universe. David Sobral and his team at the University of Lisbon led the work in finding this cluster of stars in a bright galaxy, named COSMOS Redshift 7 (CR7). The team at the University of Lisbon used the Subaru Telescope in Hawaii to first detect the light spectrum from CR7, and used three additional telescopes to determine which of the distant bright galaxies the light originated. The Subaru Telescope is located in Mauna Kea, Hawaii, and is an 8.2 metre optical-infrared telescope, operated

Universe went from the size of an atom to the ginormous galaxy we have that is continuously growing. According to the Big Bang Theory the universe appeared as a singularity. Singularities are thought to exist at the core of black holes. These zones of infinite density are called "singularities." Our universe is thought to have begun extremely small, infinitely hot, and infinitely dense. As time

Voids are the spaces between filaments and are rare because most galaxies exist around voids in sheets or filaments. Most void galaxies scattered throughout the universe. They are are connected by relatively direct void filaments usually 11 to 150 megaparsecs in diameter and which are lighter versions of the typical galaxy can be defined by the absence of galaxies. They filaments that surround voids. These galaxies are theorized to have formed from mass are theorized to have formed from pure

unusual bending of light in places where nothing but empty space exists as well as the unusual movement of stars and galaxies that can not be accounted for. The dark matter problem arose because of a difference in the masses of galaxies and larger cosmic structures. The components of these systems-stars and gas is in the description of galaxies. Gas and galaxies in the case of galaxy clusters move about but do not escape. They are restricted because they are watched over carefully by the gravitational

Zodiac constellations and one of the original 48 listed by the ancient Greek astronomer Ptolemy. Its name is Latin for crab and its astrological symbol is ♋, which represents crab pincers. This constellation attracted my interest because it contains a galaxy with a binary supermassive black hole system: OJ 287. -The constellation of Cancer as it can be seen in the sky. In the mythology of The Twelve Labours of Heracles (or Hercules in Roman mythology) Cancer is a crab sent by Hera to hinder Heracles

Black holes should probably not be called black holes. In fact, black holes are anything but empty space. Black holes are a great amount of matter packed and squeezed into a very small area. The result of this amount of matter squeezed into a small area results in a gravitational field so strong that nothing, not even light, can escape. Scientists do not have the ability to directly observe black holes with telescopes that detect x-rays, light, or other forms of electromagnetic radiation. However

Black holes, complex and difficult to understand, have intrigued both scientists and physicists alike since the eighteenth century. French scientist Pierre-Simon Laplace, born in 1749, was one of the first scientists to argue for the existence of an unexplainable body that encompasses an endless amount of space . Following Laplace, John Archibald Wheeler, an American physicist born in 1911, coined the term “black hole” for a space entity that is “so compact (in other words, has enough mass in a small

Big History is an exciting new way to look at our history and understand humans’ place in the world that incorporates all of time from the Big Bang to present day. (Big History Book) Big History demonstrates studying the past and learning from the past, including the origin and structure of everything, how and why people lived as they did in the world and the changes. We study the past to understand a broader and richer meaning of our world today and our place in it. The Big Bang Theory is an attempt

Main methods of measuring astronomical distances: Scientist used different type to find the astronomical distances. Cosmic distance ladder is used to find the astronomical distances, which includes five different methods to find the astronomical distances. Radar ranging: Radar ranging is used to find the distance of the planets which are near. This method works by striking a beam of radio waves towards the object, the radio waves after striking the object will come back as echo. So, the time taken

1. Introduction Radio astronomy has played an essential role in the orientation of the universe. Radio surveys have been developed to obtain a better understanding of unobserved and obscured active galatic nuclei (AGN) populations. Among radio surveys, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is the most promising telescope thus far, using redshift to see further and therefore interpret the expansion of the universe. Evolutionary developmental (“evo devo”) biology is an emerging science that can assist us
