What Scientists Discovered Deep Within the Andromeda Galaxy is Incredible! (4K)

The Andromeda galaxy is made up of over a trillion stars. All spread across a vast area spanning more than 200,000 light years. But what is going on deep within its core? Because scientists have discovered something strange happening at the very heart of the galaxy. Join me as we look at real images captured by incredible space telescopes such as Hubble of Andromeda's galactic centre! We will find out how Andromeda grew so big, why its core is mysteriously lopsided and what is creating a vast disk of red stars that astronomers from NASA and ESA still do not fully understand today.

I was reading just recently in SKY AND TELESCOPE about galactic halo stars. The Milkyway ( as with most galaxies apparently) has hundreds of millions of so called halo stars which extend at least halfway to our neighbor Andromeda. Andromeda has the same. So the two galaxies, in spite of the vast distance between them, are already in a sense " touching ". Intergalactic space, at least in our local group, is not so sparsely populated after all. Fascinating! Thanks for the wonderful video. You and Rolo have a blessed weekend. 🇺🇸💙🇬🇧

What I wonder about is that every Galaxy has his own Black hole. does that mean (when not colliding) with another galaxy, will the Black hole eat its own Galaxy over time?

[@TheAetherOne]

No the vast majority of the matter in the galaxy will just orbit the black hole indefinitely. The black hole will swallow up matter overtime but the radiation pressure of the accretion disk becomes too great to allow it all to fall in and a lot of the matter, perhaps most, will be blasted back out into space in relativistic jets. The amount of matter the black hole will accrete is tiny compared to the entire mass of the galaxy. The best chance a super massive black hole has for growing significantly larger is probably merging with another one after a galaxy collision happens.

[@jamesabbott5242]

Awesome video

[@xBINARYGODx]

I was under the impression that the MW was bigger than previously thought and that the size difference between us and Andromeda was not as depicted here. As per wiki's source: The mass of either galaxy is difficult to estimate with any accuracy, but it was long thought that the Andromeda Galaxy is more massive than the Milky Way by a margin of some 25% to 50%. This has been called into question by a 2018 study that cited a lower estimate on the mass of the Andromeda Galaxy,[11] combined with preliminary reports on a 2019 study estimating a higher mass of the Milky Way. The Andromeda Galaxy has a diameter of about 46.56 kpc (152,000 ly), making it the largest member of the Local Group in terms of extension.

[@Beef1188]

We should be grateful that the collision of black holes mostly manifests gravitational waves, the collisions of "normal" stellar objects being as violent as they are, I cannot even begin to imagine how destructive a couple of crashing supermassive black holes could be if they actually released matter, energy or radiation (or all three)!

[@trojanprince27]

Are blackholes the center of every galaxy? If yes, therefore the blackhole’s strong gravitational force is the equilibrium that is holding the galaxy intact?

An interesting video, but I wouldn't make definitive statements about the relative sizes of Andromeda and the Milky Way given that we don't actually know what the mass of the Milky Way is to any precision. Ironically it's much easier to figure out what Andromeda's is since we aren't looking at it from inside. It's also a bit premature to model interactions with such imprecise data.

I'm definitely no expert but how are scientists so sure that our galaxy and Andromeda will collide? I mean, what I always read and hear is that the light from starts that we see on the night sky is light that's been traveling for thousands or even millions of years and that those very same stars and galaxies might as well not be there anymore. So, why if Andromeda is not even there anymore? How can scientists predict it will happen? Please, somebody enlighten me.

[@392_Tish]

My main question about this galaxy is if it has any source of life inside it, could be a chance.

[@gasperstarina9837]

0:53 not necesserly "much larger". MW is 100.000-180.000 Ly across and Andromeda is 200k - 220k. Also kinda terrifying is (its also hard to even observe) we didn't find a single planet in AD..

[@PeterParker-gt3xl]

Despites the traditional paradigm that our universe is expanding, the cluster effect is still pulling galaxies together, some with nearly visible links. If webs and voids pattern still hold true, then they are all connected with varying gravitational forces of Newtons formula. Andromeda is slightly wider than ours, but the distance is only a little more than 2.5 mil. LYs away, making it inevitable. At current best speed it will take ~10 bill. years, so mankind won't be around to witness it.

So why don’t black holes at the center of galaxies don’t consume the galaxies? Hmm maybe we’re already dead and don’t know it

[@kerrychase4839]

The supermassive "black holes" at the center of galaxies do not produce the theorized "singularity" as many mainstream astronomers continue to insist. Such a structure, while mathematically described, violates causality. The laws of physics do not permit this--nothing happens in the Universe without collisions AND there is no applicable speed limit. Math, on the other hand, is capable of describing anything at all and has no such restrictions. However, galaxies do produce a type of super massive object made of the most basic of particles, all the way down to the tiniest ones we have yet discovered. Think instead of a neutron star, a Higgs boson star! While the Light Carrying Medium (LCM)--a field which produces light waves/photons--is compressed around these objects to such a degree that it cannot propagate outwards, there are particles that can escape, called as postulated by the theorist who envisioned them, "Hawking radiation." Dr. Hawking correctly recognized that there is no absolute "speed limit" in the Universe. Some particles in their respective fields have characteristic speed and average distances between mutual collisions such that they can escape the field forces of a whole continuum of gravity-related fields. Squashing matter, as we know it, down to this delimiting level, instead of forming a singularity, "squeezes out" particles--even more basic than the Higgs boson--from the deconstructed/homogenized "black mass" which are liberated from their respective constraining forces, allowing them to escape easily from them. This constitutes a large part of the "dark matter" we cannot yet measure directly. These DM particles then go about colliding with other particles in the Universe, recombining into units which reconstitute the type of mass we can see and recognize. This "cascading" effect of forces/energy/particles occurs across the continuum of fields of particles/forces we must call "Scale." This is part of the "cycle of existence" for our Universe and perhaps, many more beyond our own.

They should used that voyager 1 or 2 to swing around and see what our earth looks like at great distance, so when they are searching, it may have some identify look that gives a better idea of a living planet of so far, think how it will help ID a world of oxygen and etc, like the northern lights is one good way to find others, as if they match ours, that is a good way, as you think, I never seen that type of light anywhere with what I see, you should not be looking for life anywhere, you should study some where at same time have a team making a way there possible, team that are hydro farmers to make the planets for food and get more seedlings or clones ready to sustain The crew there, medical team, school to train the newest crew that will be the one who is arriving there, as it's going to have to be a family affair to make it alive, basically you are taking a mini Citi and build it into a space craft like space station, be time you got there, your world would be ready to land and turn some of the new into a new race, that way, human kind is protected if something blows earth up, atleast we will not die like the the animals before us, that way if human need to come back, we give our selves fighting chance

[@beta_cygni1950]

Neither voyager's camera has been used since 1990. That's almost 35 years ago. Highly probable that they don't work anymore. And even if the hardware would still work, there 1) isn't enough light to take any images any longer, 2) isn't enough power to use them any longer, 3) the datarate needed to take & transmit an image isn't possible to support any longer.
