DIFFUSE GALAXIES

DIFFUSE GALAXIES - Astronomers discovered another new galaxy that contains almost zero dark matter. But diffuse galaxies aren’t new, since Dragonfly 44 was in the news a few years ago. Here’s the difference.

DRAGONFLY 44 - Astronomers reported In August 2016 its composition was made almost entirely of dark matter. A dark ultra-diffuse galaxy with similar mass to our own, but strangely, showed no evidence of rotation. With 1% the light we’re used to, its 99% darker than the Milky Way.

NGC 1052-DF2 - This clear ultra diffuse galaxy contains only 1/200 the number of stars and also has roughly the size as our own galaxy. Here’s where things get weird. It doesn’t look like a spiral or elliptical  galaxy but appears malformed. It contains at least 400 times less dark matter than normal and possibly none at all. This large fuzzy diffuse galaxy is so clear, distant galaxies can be seen behind it.

What’s so unusual about this? - Typically galaxies coalesce from dark matter forming dark matter halos, gas blobs turning into stars beginning to build, organized in typical galaxies such as the Milky Way with orderly rotation and shape.

The discovery demonstrates dark matter is separable from galaxies since NGC 1052-DF2 has none. Dark matter is conventionally believed to be integral structurally to all galaxies. NGC 1052-DF2 challenges notions of how galaxies form. Interesting stuff, indeed.

TRAPPIST-1 Update - One of the Planets May Be Very Earthlike!

TRAPPIST-1e UPDATE

TRAPPIST-1e UPDATE - Precise data from NASA's Spitzer and Kepler space telescopes reveals more interesting possible features of Trappist-1’s remarkably stable planetary system. Data has been gleaned from observing minute variations of the planetary interactions in their orbits. The TRAPPIST-1e planet is rumored to be the most Earth-like, the system’s rockiest planet with an iron core nearly identical to our own, and the potential to host some liquid water with maybe an atmosphere. TRAPPIST-1 has the most rocky planets orbiting the sun, the greatest number of potentially habitable worlds and more is known about this system besides our own precious Planet Earth. 

ULTRAMAN

Ultraman - A science control officer battles alien and monster threats, to protect the Earth and defeat these intruders. Ultraman first appeared on Tokyo Broadcasting System in July 1966. The concept was imagined by Tsuburaya Productions, the SFX creator of Godzilla in 1954. Because, why not? Yeah.
