Sombrero Galaxy

The mass of a star dictates its whole life. Vega is a medium mass star, so it has about 10 billion years to live overall. Vega about 25 light years away, as well. Vega has an absolute magnitude of 0.58, and a temperature of 9,602 K. This medium mass star follows on the same path as any other medium mass star: First star birth, then through the main sequence, into a red giant, contracted into a white dwarf, and finally cooled into a black dwarf. Vega started out its life just as any other star

The Big Bang, as commonly present, has flaws and breaks certain laws of Science. Here is how the Big Bang is often presented: somewhere between 18 and 20 billion years ago, all of the matter in the universe was compressed into a tiny space no larger than the dot on a page. This dot spun faster and faster until it exploded, thus creating the Universe and everything in it. There are many problems with this theory, and the theory itself still does not answer many important questions - Such as where

the remains of a dwarf spheroidal galaxy that is in the process of merging with the Milky Way. It is the largest galaxy visible from the Earth, in terms of the area of the night sky covered. The stream covers over 100 square degrees, and possibly as much as 1,000 square degrees. Despite its proximity to the solar system and the solid angle that it consequently covers, the stream contains only a few hundred thousand stars. The low surface brightness of the galaxy may have militated against its detection

The first process every star goes through before its end is the process of their core shrinking. When stars of at least .4 M begin to exhaust their hydrogen supply, the hydrogen starts to fuse in a shell that is outside the helium core. As the shell burns more hydrogen it is also producing more helium, this allows the core to increase in its mass and temperature. When the temperature increases greatly, helium fusion begins to start in what is called a helium flash, causing the star to rapidly decrease

Super fluorine symbol is F and shines the letter F up in a dark night sky where the brightest stars are. To make them pop out so everyone in the city of New York knows he is here to save them from nasty bacteria. Fluorine atomic number is the number nine. Fluorine is originally a pale yellow. He came from outer space from a low mass star’s epic death. The low mass star life cycle was to the end moreover, now it's a white dwarf. Low Mass star begin their life with a stellar nebula then an average

“Current Science Event: Sonic Tractor Beams” In the past, scientists have extoled levitation through electromagnetic fields and even concentrated laser beams to levitate ferromagnetic material. Now, scientists in the U.K. have built a contraption comprised of 64 loudspeakers and intensive computer calculations. Essentially, the loudspeakers synchronize their sound waves so that they uniformly counteract Earth’s gravity. The side speakers then prevent the levitating object from rolling off the invisible

Collaboration on cosmological theories has helped to develop how we see the universe today. Astronomers have been able to develop several theories, which helps us to learn about what we see in the sky. Based on observations on what we can see and of what we now based on the laws of science, space is able to been seen much closer than we think it is. As Astronomers collaborate together, they are able to formulate theories on space itself using investigation and observation. Through theories and astronomers

One the night of November 17th, 2015 you will be able to see the annual Leonid meteor shower with its peak happening close to dawn on the morning of November 18th, 2015. Researchers are predicting about 15 meteors per hour around the time of peak. According to researchers you may even be able to see a shooting star every three minutes on average. The moon will be a waxing crescent so the researchers predict that if you observe close to moon set around 10 p.m. chances are slim that you will see a

Why are planets spherical and what would happen if they were a different shape? Nearly every planet, moon or star discovered so far has been roughly spherical. This is because bodies of mass large enough will cause a gravitational pull. As the object gets bigger, the stronger the gravitational pull would be. Along with the gravitational pull that object creates, other objects would have pulls of their own which in turn would affect the other objects’ shape. One way we can see this is with our moon

The solar nebula theory stated that the solar system started with a grain of dust. From that grain of dust, our solar system expanded through three processes; condensation, accretion, and gravitational collapse. Through condensation particles add matter from gas. In the process of accretion, particles stick together forming masses. These masses collided at low velocities creating protoplanets. The larger the protoplanet, the greater the gravitational pull, thus attracting more matter growing
