The center of the Milky Way galaxy contains a region packed with stars – millions of objects contained within a small volume such equivalent to that between the Sun and its closest neighbor Alpha Centauri, 4.3 light years away.

While the Sun is located in the less populated disk region of the galaxy, the Milky Way core contains a massive Nuclear Star Cluster, the most massive and densest stellar cluster in the galaxy. Located 27,000 light-years away, imagine what the night sky is like there!

Find out how this dense region is being unveiled and what it tells us about the Milky Way’s central supermassive black hole.

With 4 balanced armature SKUs, are the Optuma NuForce HEM series (comprised of the HEM2, HEM4, HEM6, and HEM8) a great choice for a variety of consumers?

Dropping a fireball of pure molten glass straight from the furnace onto a brand new iPhone 6S. What a pleasant sight to see. 🙂

This visualization is the annotated version of “Crash of the Titans”. It includes the running time and galaxy identifications.

In about 4 billion years, the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies will collide.

The three largest galaxies in our Local Group of Galaxies are our Milky Way along with the Andromeda (also known as Messier 31) and Triangulum (also known as Messier 33) galaxies. This scientific visualization of a computer simulation depicts their joint evolution over the next several billion years and features the inevitable massive collision between the Milky Way and Andromeda. Hubble Space Telescope observations indicate that the two galaxies, pulled together by their mutual gravity, will crash together in a head-on collision about 4 billion years from now. The thin disk shapes of these spiral galaxies are strongly distorted and irrevocably transformed by the encounter. Around 6 billion years from now, the two galaxies will merge to form a single elliptical galaxy. The Triangulum galaxy continues to orbit the merged pair through the end of this computer simulation, though other computer models show it becoming part of the collision.

The visualization covers 8.2 billion years into the future at 105 million years per second. Colors are representative: light blue for spiral galaxies (considered “blue” in astronomy parlance because of their active star formation) and orange-yellow for elliptical galaxies (called “red” by astronomers for their old stellar populations). A random background field of galaxies has been added to the simulation in order to indicate the camera motion through the simulation volume.

This visualization depicts the same simulation as the “Future Galaxy Merger” visualization, but includes the Triangulum galaxy and utilizes a more cinematic camera choreography.

This scientific visualization of a computer simulation depicts the inevitable collision between our Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy (also known as Messier 31). NASA Hubble Space Telescope observations indicate that the two galaxies, pulled together by their mutual gravity, will crash together in a near-head-on collision about 4 billion years from now. The thin disk shapes of these spiral galaxies are strongly distorted and irrevocably transformed by the encounter. Around 6 billion years from now, the two galaxies will merge to form a single elliptical galaxy.

A random background field of galaxies has been added to the simulation in order to indicate the camera motion through the simulation volume.

This visualization depicts the same simulation as the “Crash of the Titans” visualization, but does not include the Triangulum galaxy and utilizes a simpler camera choreography.
