Has a more dark matter than ordinary matter The universe literally has more dark matter than ordinary matter... in the universal scale. Dark energy is up to 68% Dark matter is up to 27.8% And ordinary matter (conventional matter, stars, nebulas and every other normal matter) is less than 5% -What is Dark matter? Dark matter is an unconventional unknown type of matter than is blind to electromagnetic spectrums and therefore cannot be seen (which mostly is because our sight is dependant on light (electromagnetism ) it can none the less be detected by the distortion of light and it's gravitational effects. Our galaxy is surrounded by an enormous halo of dark matter that exceeds the normal matter which adds a humongous mass to the entire mass of the galaxy. Since dark matter is invisible to us it is also speculated that the earth is even surrounded by it Cc. lalasticlala 1 Like |

Sunofgod: So i guess you can actually defend this scientific consonant that is as a result of plain cognitive laziness.. Let's see you try... If there is a huge miseducation and stupendous intellectual epilepsy it is very clear here Stop swallowing nonsensical conspiracy theories that thinks science revolves around NASA... That you even think "spherical earth" is an idea of Nasa makes the ignorance pitiable. Spherical earth has been a very mapped out and thoroughly proven fact since Hellenistic ages 16 Likes 5 Shares |

[size=13pt]Amazing. Now wouldn't it be weird if we were the only living beings in the universe. Its utterly impossible if you ask me. so aliens are real, we just haven't seen them... We came from a source science has not been able to adequately explain, maybe some other living civilizations from us billions of light years away have discovered how the universe came about and how evolution happened, maybe they have been able to create the evolution of beings themselves.... This is beautiful. I wish i was alive to experience the nearing of the Andromeda, would be a sight to see..... [/size] 6 Likes |

A little interesting fact about Space. Some stars that we see today in the sky may have been dead thousands of years ago and are inactive. We are only seeing the light they reflected long before dying out because it takes sometimes thousands of years for the light to reach earth. And this is just for stars in the Milky Way galaxy.. 3 Likes |

@ johnydon22 pls what's the pillar(s)of creation. is it a galaxy, part of a galaxy or just another thing in space. |
Re: Facts About The Milky Way Galaxy (with Photos) by johnydon22(m): 9:54pm On May 23, 2016 |
dolphinheart: It's a nebula.. A nebula is a huge interstellar cloud that can be many light years big.. And nebulas are also part of galaxy most times nursery for the births of new stars due to their wealth in hydrogen 1 Like |

Truly interesting. Kudos to you op. All these facts that science has proved is summed up in these Words: In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth(Genesis 1:1) Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them (Genesis 2:1) ...He also made the stars (Genesis 1:16) To GOD be the Glory folks.

sagacious2016:the andromeda is 1 out of all the visible lights in our night sky and not even always visible, its only visible that time of the year when the constellation Andromeda comes up. Andromeda is not really close 2million light years away, it a big galaxy with almost a trillion stars thats why from that distance it is bright enough to be seen as a dot of light from earth. The stars you see at night are neighbouring suns in their own systems the closest being the alpha centauri 4 Likes |

DrayZee: Not really, Dark matter are also parts of a galaxy just like normal matter. it is hypothesized there are even dark matter galaxies. but Space is more like it with strayed intergalactic stars (Stars that not part of any galactic cluster but are just lone orphan strayed stars beaming alone without being part of any galaxy) |

It was a Goddess' breast milk This is not funny, its true... The ancient greeks after observing the milky way band running through the sky with lights meshed like a spilled milk after wondering what it was or might be they concluded it was a spilled Milk from the Goddess Hera's breast wife of the God zeus. And that was exactly where it literally got it's name The Milky way They said it was as a result of thr Goddess Hera removing her breast from the baby Heracles when she realize the baby wasn't hers. They called it Galakticos which means MILKY.. The word "galaxy" was hewn from that. 1 Like |
