Astronotes Armagh Planetarium's Stellar Blog! ... Stars . ... Starbursts are short-lived events, stars are forming so quickly that the reservoirs of interstellar gas from which stars are coalescing would be used up on a timescale much shorter than the age of the galaxy . ... Strong stellar winds from giant new stars in the starburst region combine with the blasts of supernovae to push a mighty flood of extremely hot gas, a ?superwind? from the galaxy thousands of light years into intergalactic space. ...

... STScI-PRC01-04 HUBBLE'S ULTRAVIOLET VIEWS OF NEARBY GALAXIES YIELD CLUES TO EARLY UNIVERSE Astronomers are using these three NASA Hubble Space Telescope images to help tackle the question of why distant galaxies have such odd shapes, appearing markedly different from the typical elliptical and spiral galaxies seen in the nearby universe. ... Light from these galaxies travels great distances (billions of light-years) to reach Earth. ... These stars emit mostly ultraviolet light. ...

... 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. ...

... We present a photometric and spectroscopic study of the unique isolated nearby galaxy KKR25. The isolated dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy KKR25 was discovered by Karachentseva, Karachentsev Richter (1999, A , 135, 221) during the search of dwarf galaxies in the direction of the Local Void. In spite of its isolation KKR 25 has no gas and looks like a normal dwarf spheroidal system. ... This is the first known planetary nebula in a dwarf spheroidal galaxy outside the Local Group. ...
