<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US>Question 39-50<O:P>
</O:P></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US><SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Galaxies are the major
building blocks of the universe. A <BR>galaxy is giant family
of many millions of stars, and it is held <BR>together by its
own gravitational field. Most of the material <BR>universe is
organized into galaxies of stars together with <BR>gas and
dust.<O:P> </O:P></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US><SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>There are three main types
of galaxy: spiral, elliptical, <BR>and irregular. The Milky Way
is a spiral galaxy, a flattish disc <BR>of stars with two
spiral arms emerging from its central nucleus. <BR>About
one-quarter of all galaxies have this shape.
Spiral <BR>galaxies are well supplied with the interstellar gas
in which <BR>new stars form: as the rotating spiral pattern
sweeps around <BR>the galaxy it compresses gas and dust,
triggering the formation <BR>of bright young stars and in its
arms. The elliptical galaxies have a <BR>symmetrical elliptical
or spheroidal shape with no obvious <BR>structure. Most of
their member stars are very old and since <BR>ellipticals are
devoid of interstellar gas, no new stars are forming <BR>in
them. The biggest and brightest galaxies in the
universe <BR>are ellipticals with masses of about 1013 times
that of the Sun, <BR>these giants may frequently be sources of
strong radio <BR>emission, in which case they are called radio
galaxies. About two-<BR>thirds of all galaxies are elliptical.
Irregular galaxies comprise <BR>about one-tenth of all galaxies
and they come in many <BR>subclasses.<O:P> </O:P></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US><SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Measurement in space is
quite different from measure-<BR>ment on Earth. Some terrestrial
distances can be expressed as <BR>intervals of time, the time
to fly from one continent to another <BR>or the time it takes
to drive to work, for example. By comparison <BR>with these
familiar yardsticks, the distances to the <BR>galaxies are
incomprehensibly large, but they too are made <BR>more
manageable by using a time calibration, in this case
the <BR>distance that light travels in one year. On such a
scale the <BR>nearest giant spiral galaxy, the Andromeda
galaxy, is two <BR>million light years away. The most distant
luminous objects seen <BR>by telescopes are probably ten
thousand million light years <BR>away. Their light was already
halfway here before the Earth <BR>even formed. The light from
the nearby Virgo galaxy set out <BR>when reptiles still
dominated the animal world.<O:P> <O:P> </O:P></SPAN></P>
