Andromeda Galaxy M31 Profile

Andromeda Galaxy M31 Best Profile

------------ Image Info ---------------
A zoom diving deep into the nucleus of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) then dissolving into an animation of a concentration of red stars. Pushing deeper into the animation reveals a disk of young blue stars swirling around a black hole. Hubble's Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) revealed this disk of young blue stars that were swirling around a black hole in M31 in much the same way that the planets in our solar system revolve around the Sun. Astronomers are perplexed about how the pancake-shaped disk of stars could form so close to a giant black hole. In such a hostile environment, the black hole's tidal forces should tear matter apart, making it difficult for gas and dust to collapse and form stars. The observations, astronomers say, may provide clues to the activities in the cores of more distant galaxies.

so we have a black hole in the center of the milky way??

[IslamicWay]

Yes We Do, and its Very Vast in Size. You can see the Glow from it with your Eyes on a Clear night.

[Hopkins132]

@IslamicWay Yes...and it's called a supermassive black hole, which is present in the center of every glaxy.

P.S. Back holes dont shine.

@Hopkins132 thank you for the input :)

Yes you can see the Andromeda galaxy with just your eys!!... its just a small smudge like glow in the sky!! but i forgot what side of the earth you need to be on to see the galaxy!!

[FreestyleCodShots]

@Hopkins132 Actually they do slightly glow! This is called "Hawking Radiation" :)

@julianpenado I know that anywhere in the continental US you can see it in the eastern sky.

[rpsmith014]

@IslamicWay I believe that you meant to say that the stars surrounding it glow brightly due to their density, thus giving off it's location ;)

@IslamicWay

Where shall we look? I mean towards which constelation? Thanks

Call me crazy but these 2 rings looks like artificial object to me. My idea is blue stars support red ones because they are dying.I would call red stars ring CONFEDERATION , blue ring was made by them as Power Plant .The blue ring containing 400 stars is only a light-year across! Made by nature? I don't think so..The Red ring is about five light-years .The two discs are in the same plane, they are definitely related, perfection !

black holes dont shine because even light cant escape from it >.>

Fantastic!
