What is Galaxy in simple words | aliens explorers

What is the definition of a Galaxy?

A galaxy is a huge mass of stars, nebulae, and interstellar material. The smallest galaxies contain about 100,000 stars, while the largest contain up to 3000 billion stars.

There are three main types of galaxies classified according to their shape; elliptical, which are oval-shaped, spiral, which have arms spiraling outwards from a central bulge (those whose  arms spiral from a bar-shaped bulge are called spirals) and irregular,
which has no obvious shape?

Sometimes, the shape of a galaxy is distorted by a collision with another galaxy. Quasars are thought to be galactic nuclei but are so far away that their exact nature is still uncertain. They are compact, highly luminous objects in the outer reaches of the known universe: while the furthest known ordinary galaxies are about 12 billion light-years away, the furthest known Quasar is about 13 light-years away. Active galaxies, such as Seyfert galaxies and radio galaxies, emit intense radiation. In a Seyfert galaxy, this radiation comes from the galactic nucleus; in a radio galaxy, it also comes from huge lobes on either side of the galaxy. The radiation from active galaxies and quasars is thought to be caused by material falling into the central black holes.

Bright light spots on Ceres surface | Alien Explorers

NASA's Dawn spacecraft found bright spots on Ceres Multiple bright spots in Occator crater stand out against the dark surface Credits: NASA/JPL-Caltech On February 19, 2015, NASA's Dawn spacecraft captured mysteriously bright spots on Ceres reflecting off the surface of the dwarf planet. While some scientists suggested that the lights are the result of something natural like ice fields or escaping gas, the higher resolution images failed to explain the bright lights.  After four months in June, the Dawn spacecraft captured even more incredible images; These images reveal what looks like a three-mile tale pyramid. Can these be possibly technological structures? The Question came in the mind are “Is this technological structure have been built by extra-terrestrials? Additional oversight of Ceres planet might reveal evidence that it once served as the refuge for ancient aliens war survivors. The answer to this question according to ancient astronaut theorists say...

Conspiracies of Antarctica | Alien explorers

Evidence of Extraterrestrial on Antarctica   An iceberg in Antarctica (Source: pixabay.com )   Antarctica- is the fifth-largest continent on this planet. It is covered with ice up to 4km thick. Antarctica is the coldest regions on the Earth. The temperature here is enough to freeze water all the time. The middle sector of Antarctica is much colder than the shores. It has no plants or bushes. The only plants which can tolerate the harsh circumstances are moss and algae. But this Continent has hidden many mysteries of our planet.                 Map of Antarctica  An old map of Antarctica (Source- pixabay.com ) Ancient ruins discovered in Antarctica .  Here are the unexpected mysteries of the White continent Antarctica. The Pyramids of Antarctica : Pyramids has been a mystery for a long time. Important Questions regarded to pyramids are  Why they were built?  Why the shape of the ...

What is Alcubierre warp drive and how it's work?

Alcubierre wrap drive :     Hypothetical and fictional faster-than-light technology. By Bhabesh Kumar Warp drive Star Trek (image: ©Axanar productions)  From where the concept of warp drive arises? It arises from the science fiction movie "Star Trek". Most of the science fiction movies hypotheses are seems to be unrealistic, that have become reality over the years of scientific research. But for the near future "warp drive" remains a dream.   What is a warp drive theory? Warp drive  is a technology that allowed space to travel faster than the light. It works by creating the warp fields that form the subspace bubble that surrounds the sip.  In an earlier article, we have discussed the  wormhole , How we can create a shortcut path between space-time faster than light.  Today we will talk about the  Warp drive   technique which makes the spacecraft faster than light, without any waste of energy....
