... June 24, 1999 . NGC 1365: A Nearby Barred Spiral Galaxy . ... Explanation: Many spiral galaxies have bars across their centers. Even our own Milky Way Galaxy is thought to have a bar , but perhaps not so prominent as the one in NGC 1365, shown above . ... NGC 1365 is a member of the Fornax Cluster of Galaxies . Because NGC 1365 is relatively nearby, simultaneous measurements of its speed and distance are possible, which help astronomers estimate how fast our universe is expanding . ...

... Our Sun is part of a huge wheel-shaped collection of stars. ... Astronomers have long suspected it was a very massive black hole, and that every galaxy had such a central mass, created early in the history of the universe. ... However, unless that object happens to be headed directly at the black hole (a relatively small target) it will just swing around and fly away again, like a comet making a pass at the Sun. The velocity acquired in falling towards the black hole also helps it escape. ...

... Astronomers have taken lots of beautiful images of galaxies in the Universe, but we don t have a single photo of our own galaxy, the Milky Way. ... But astronomers still have a good idea about what the Milky Way looks like: a spiral shape with a centre that is slightly stretched out. We only see the Milky Way s shape as a thin strip across the night sky, rather than as a spiral, because we are living within it and looking at it sideways. ...

... Confirmation that a mysterious cloud of hydrogen in the Virgo Cluster is a dark galaxy has been published by a team of astronomers . New evidence from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope in the Netherlands has been used to rule out all but one of the ideas put forward to explain the existence of VIRGOHI 21, an intergalactic gas cloud 50 million light-years from the Earth. ... Only Dark Matter can account for the existence of such a system. ...

... Research . ... A rare hybrid morphology radio galaxy . ... In this project we will be able to investigate the environmental effect on star formation and galaxy evolution in individual galaxies falling into the cluster through radio observations of active galactic nuclei (AGN). Current models of galaxy evolution regulate the star formation rates within the simulated galaxies by invoking radio-mode feedback from AGN. ... Julie.Banfield@anu.edu.au . ...

An image of the grand design of spiral galaxy M100 obtained with NASA's Hubble Space Telescope resolves individual stars within the majestic spiral arms. ... Hubble has the ability to resolve individual stars in other galaxies and measure accurately the light from very faint stars.

Astronomers at Armagh Observatory and Cardiff University have independently discovered new mechanisms by which micro-organisms may have spread throughout the Galaxy. Scientific papers on the topic by Professor Bill Napier at Armagh, and by Dr Max Wallis and Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe at Cardiff University, will appear simultaneously in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society . ... Cardiff scientists Max Wallis and Chandra Wickramasinghe have identified another delivery route. ...

... A radio galaxy is a galaxy that emits an unusually big amount of energy at radio wavelengths. ... Inside of each galaxy with an active nucleus (radio galaxies are among them) there must be a system of a "central machine" responsible for the colossal amount of the emitted energy from radio to gamma ranges. ... Sometimes a radio source in an active galaxy may flare again if the needed conditions appear (a new portion of matter would fall into the furnace of the "central machine"). ...

Using near-infrared Galaxy intensity measured with COBE/DIRBE experiment and X-ray data from RXTE and INTEGRAL it was shown that X-ray brightness of the Galactic background emission closely follows its stellar density and can be explained by a cumulative emission of a large number of weak Galactic X-ray sources. ...

... Embedded within this view are 2,753 star clusters. The view is 61,600 light-years across and contains images of 117 million stars in the galaxy's disk. Bottom-Left] An enlargement of the boxed field in the top image reveals myriad stars and numerous open star clusters as bright blue knots. Hubble's bird's-eye view of M31 allowed astronomers to conduct a larger-than-ever sampling of star clusters that are all at the same distance from Earth, 2.5 million light-years. ...
