How to pronounce “galaxy”(noun) in English

center of some sort of explosion if you were on one of those other galaxies you would see us moving away from you everyGalaxy sees the same basic picture around them is a uniform distribution of other galaxies they're all moving awaythey all move away faster and faster the further they are away so what does that mean what that means is that space

They wouldn't see anything to do with Google, but they might see the Boston Tea Party, for instance.This galaxy that we're a part of, this incredible pizza shaped structure with hundreds of billions of stars, is so vast that it takes 100,000 years for lifeto traverse it from side to side.

And Adverb Adder, saves all that typing, and thinking.The galaxy's been reshaped.

It's not just that we are all made of matter, and the Earth, and sun, and the solar system, and our galaxy--every galaxy seems to be made ordinary matter and not antimatter.And we can tell that, because if a galaxy and an anti-galaxy were to collide with one another, we would see that

But if they've built Dyson Spheres, you can find them.The galaxy might easily be full of entities that don't really, especially want to talk to us.For example, New Yorkers.

And remember the black hole itself, this one is about a billion or so solar masses would fit readily inside our solar system.This galaxy probably has a hundred billion solar systems in it so it's a tiny, tiny thing, it's like a bacterium suddenly inflating a balloon the size of Manhattan.So, as we've learned more about this it's raised a number of questions and a very interesting

So it's way, way back pretty much at the dawn of formation of evolution of galaxies.spiral galaxy that has a definite plane of motion, if that orientation is the same.

composed of something we don't know what it is right if you look for example at aspiral galaxy and you see it spinning around and measure how it's spinning around it turns out there's not enoughvisible mass in that Galaxy to keep it from flying apart it should fly apart and the only way it can hold together

And if you're not impacted by others, you have to become a meteor on your own or comet on your own and leave and try to crash against another planetin another galaxy. And things will happen.That's what I've always been trying to do.

So this is my mother's almonds and cheese, a very traditional tapas what I'm about to do.to their galaxy.

If a man had given birth to the university, it would be called the Disappointing Early theory.And every galaxy would be the Milky Way.And by the way, this isn't a theory.

where it's continually coming.It's not "a galaxy far, far away." It's something that actually may happen and it's coming.And, you know, I think that they're invigorated by that idea.

And just to make you appreciate how surprising it is, I want you for a moment to imagine that each one of youis a galaxy, and I'm looking at you now with my telescope.And I see something kind of funny.

It works for light, as well.So a galaxy flying away from you will have its light stretched to long, lower frequencies, which makes it look redder.We call this redshift in astronomy.

And look how little we've accomplished.All those galaxy maps we flew around then are just this tiny part near the center that are well covered.We have some sparse outliers in here.

And if we can determine accurate distances for all these stars, then we have a very nice measure of the density distributionof the galaxy. And using the same survey data, we can look for the giants that are producingmillions of times more light than our own sun.

So I'm going to walk you through a little bit of how we use these two types of stars to map out the nearby partsof the galaxy and the really distant parts, as well.So a little more Astronomy 101, the Milky Way galaxy is a spiral galaxy.

So this is an Aitoff projection of the earth.This is what the galaxy looks like in Aitoff projection.So you can see the plane of the Milky Way here, the large and small magellanic clouds, and you can see that the Galactic Center really

There's a princess who needs to be rescued.There's a galaxy that must be saved.There is something that has to be reclaimed, or something has been stolen or captured, and you have to go out and seek this.

And then it's all done in two years, like in post and things like that.For "Guardians of the Galaxy" I have to sit there for five hours and it's not cool.I have ADD, I have OCD.

And Adverb Adder, saves all that typing, and thinking.going on in the galaxy, about possible problems, or newly emergent species that have to be dealt with,

And Adverb Adder, saves all that typing, and thinking.Well the galaxy is a Big Dumb Object.

And you just say, wait, objective reality will prove me right.in a galaxy filled with noise, and sound, and commerce, and communication.

The speed of a galaxy caused by the expansion of space at any given time is proportional to its distance, with the constant of proportionality

is holding a Samsung Galaxy Note 3, as you can see.

The Zooniverse platform through Galaxy Zoo radically cut the time it took to characterize and define types

Our Milky Way galaxy is on the fourth cord from the center of our Milky Way galaxy, and we're on planet Earth, the

Architecture, flowers. We've got an MC Escher print.There's the galaxy M81 in the lower right.And for those of you who don't do these sorts of things, I occasionally compete in the National Crossword Puzzle Tournament here in New York.

It's always one of the beauties of astronomy as you have pretty pictures to show.This is a galaxy called Centaurus A and not too far from us, it's kind of a messy galaxy but I think you can see that on top and bottom there's sort of strange plumes coming outand there are two, there's a supermassive black hole deep inside this galaxy, And, in fact, we've discovered, the Milky Way is not alone in having a supermassive black hole

Let me just say a little bit about that.This is another galaxy and I'm showing you this because it's one of those places every so often something comes a long and it's like finding that rare species that suddenly illuminatesthe whole tree of life.

a number of years ago.This is another galaxy, this is a galaxy called Perseus A; it's about 250 million light years from us.Doesn't look too unusual, looked a little messy, Perseus A is, like many galaxies, part

but it definitely was something when we saw it, it kind of changed everyone's view.So the galaxy is in the middle here, you can't really see it because we're looking at x-ray light.What you can see is that this hot atmosphere surrounding these galaxies is far from uniform, there's all sorts of interesting structure in here.

So it's way, way back pretty much at the dawn of formation of evolution of galaxies.So our galaxy is about 100,000 light years across and the spiral structures you see are on a similar scale, they stretch for maybe 50,000 light years.

So it's way, way back pretty much at the dawn of formation of evolution of galaxies.of our galaxy was pretty quiet, it wasn't getting fed much matter, it wasn't doing a great deal.

So it's way, way back pretty much at the dawn of formation of evolution of galaxies.Remember our galaxy has 200 billion stars, so, you know, it's a small fraction.

So it's way, way back pretty much at the dawn of formation of evolution of galaxies.center of our galaxy.

You take over the galaxy and you have big things happening with big space ships.

Now there's another galaxy, and now all those things there are now galaxies, comparable to ours, similar to ours.

for the LA Galaxy, where last year you won yet another trophy.

Guide to the Galaxy.

In our galaxy, there is every reason to think that there are billions of planets in habitable zones. So final thing along these lines. They are also able to find increasingly what kind

spiral galaxy and you see it spinning around and measure how it's spinning around it turns out there's not enoughvisible mass in that Galaxy to keep it from flying apart it should fly apart and the only way it can hold togetherlike that as as if you know 90 something per of it has to be made of something we don't know what it is but we can detect

comparable in size to our Milky Way galaxy so of course you see stars when you look at the night sky we live in theMilky Way galaxy a collection of about 100 billion stars but there's a 100 billion galaxies in the observableuniverse every single one of those those little splotches is a Galaxy all by itself so 100 billion stars per Galaxy

100 billion galaxies in the universe if you've heard the phrase the internets this is what is being referred to with100 billion stars per Galaxy 100 billion galaxies in the universe there's probably a lot of internets out there on every one of those things uh and perhapsthe president has access to some of them that we don't this was discovered in 1924 100 years ago we knew nothing

particles which makes up everything that you've seen in your daily life everything that you can directly detectin atoms Stars Galaxy and so forth just those four Fons in different combinations which is a remarkable factall by itself yet nature decides to repeat the pattern another two times there's another family of quarks and

well that just depends on how massive the thing doing the deflecting is the more matter the more stuff there is inthe intervening Galaxy the bigger the gravitational lensing effect will be so you can actually use this to weigh theGalaxy you can figure out how much stuff there is in there by looking at how strong the gravitational lensing is it's

Supernova is very very bright it's comparable in brightness to the 100 billion other stars that make up thetotal rest of that Galaxy so they're easy to see far away and you can calibrate how bright they are theproblem is they're rare in a galaxy this size the Supernova will happen only once every Century so you have two options

solar systems in our galaxy and so on and this big bang that we're in may only

So a galaxy is born with a lot of gas over its lifetime.
