Googintosh Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 The centre of the galaxy is a supermassive black hole(s). Every galaxy is believed to have at least one at its core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitch00 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 my brain just isnt powerful enough to understand the fullness of just HOW big our galaxy is.. like i just can't believe it... like soloredd said, if i had ONE wish in life it would be to understand our universe and be able to travel accross it and find out whats beyond it (if thats even possible because int the universe supposed to be *everything*?)

Dodgy Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 woah, thats like the "Total Perspective Vortex" in Hitch Hikers Guide To The Galaxy: The Restraunt At The End Of The Universe. it shows u how small u r comparable to the entire universe, it makes u crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiGGA Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Large, Massive, Gigantic, Immense, Vastness. You could use all the words in the dictionary and it still wouldn't do the Universe any justice. It amazes me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geo Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 So the sun is just another star orbitting around the big thing? And in turn making us, and the other planets move around another point with the sun? Also, is it possible this galaxy is orbitting around something else? And that something else orbit around something else, and so on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geo Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 So we're all slowly being sucked into a black hole? I understand if that's correct, the process is so slow, it will be long after earth has died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iSimx Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 that bright stuff in the middle is a clutter of stars and dust.. and a black hole which we might be sucked into :s...lol EDIT: Well the sun's going to burn out soon... well a long time from now and has many stages to go...:s.
