These extra bit are like small gold nuggets of information.

Knowledge is power, everyone.

If a galaxy is 500,000 lightyears in diameter and we're looking at the galaxy at an angle, does that mean the edge closer to us appears loosely 500,000 years older than the farther edge? Does that time scale even matter when studying galaxies?

[@amaarquadri]

widowmaker777 The parts of the Galaxy further away from us definately do appear as they were further in the past compared to the rest of the galaxy. 500, 000 years is very short on Galactic timescales though. For example, the sun takes roughly 225 million years to complete an orbit around the Milky Way. So in 500, 000 years it would travel less than 1 degree in its orbit. I suspect this means that the time delay in seeing further parts of a galaxy are insignificant, although I can't say for sure.

[@widowmaker777]

Thanks for adding some perspective to my question. I still wonder if there are any observations that need to take this into account.

[@TimMeep]

Great as always, but still wish Brady would get a lapel mic for himself

[@unvergebeneid]

That nail polish really makes her eyes pop. Sorry Black Eye Galaxy, but I gotta give this one to the human eyes, not the galactic core.

Galaxies are my favorite thing to look for but the hardest things to find.

What direction does the Dark Matter rotate? With or against the dust?

[@DavidOfWhitehills]

Does it rotate?

[@philiproseel3506]

If our solar system had formed much closer to the center of the galaxy, would we still be here? Are the conditions so different that they would've impeded the creation of life as we know it?
