Not exact matches
If you multiply that
by the estimated number

I know that he must think he's doing the right thing
by taking himself out
of the equation, and that means he thinks the best thing for the
galaxy is that he's not a part
of this and,
by extension, that the Jedi are not a part
of this.

A newly released image from NASA Hubble telescope reveals that a huge cluster

A spiral
galaxy (same goes for a spherical planet, a

We can see this
by looking into space at the 100s
of billions
of galaxies which allow us to see back in time.
What i mean
by this is that if u read the creation story in the bible, there is no mention that god created the solar system with the sun in the center, with the other planets, with us in the milky way
galaxy, and all the other billions
of galaxies.
«Things» were «moving» in this early stage
of the universe, and this motion
by different «objects» produced angluar motion in different directions, causing the first stars and

galaxy.
those stars you see, the light takes hundreds
of thousands
of years to reach us, and when you see that light from them, you are seeing what they looked like thousands
of years ago when that group
of photons was thrust out
by that star /
galaxy, which than takes several light years to reach us, which also means you are looking at the past, thousands and hundreds
of thousand
of years into the past!
The theory
of societies, like modern general systems theory, pictures a world made up
of societies within societies (systems within systems) That is, societies do not just line up side

galaxies.
This «hole in space» is a 300 million light year gap in the distribution
of galaxies, has taken cosmologists

It would be otiose to give examples: a distant thunder is in the past as much as a distant star; but no matter how far in time - space a star or
galaxy is, it is always faintly immanent in my Here - Now even when its action is below the threshold
of human perception; its action can be made visible
by a combination
of lenses or a prolonged photographic exposure.
You'll almost certainly dodge that question
by claiming he has always existed, so if that's the case, what suddenly prompted God to create a universe filled with over 100 billion
galaxies containing a trillion trillion stars after spending an eternity extending into the past existing alone in an absolute void
of nothingness?
Because this survey pertains to such a small piece
of the sky, the implications are staggering: if the region
of sky demarked
by the «bowl»
of the Big Dipper were surveyed to the same depth, it would contain about 32 million
galaxies!»
@Vic: For the sake
of argument, let's suppose the universe was created
by an all powerful being who had existed for an eternity extending into the past in emptiness
of the nothingness that was before he got bored and created the universe with its 170 billion or more
galaxies and trillion trillion stars.
Today astronomers measure how much dark matter a cluster
of galaxies may have
by observing how the cluster bends light from more distant objects.
In addition, if the ratio
of the electromagnetic force constant to the gravitational constant were greater
by more than 1 part in 10 to the 40th power, then electromagnetism would dominate gravity, preventing the formation
of stars and
galaxies.
In addition, if the ratio
of the electromagnetic force constant to the gravitational constant were greater
by more than 1 part in 1040, then electromagnetism would dominate gravity, preventing the formation
of stars and
galaxies.
If any
of those constants was off
by even one part in a million, or in some cases,
by one part in a million million, the universe could not have been able to coalesce, there would have been no
galaxy, stars, planets or people.»
And now, out

However, with a more realistic model in which the mass is smeared throughout the
galaxy, Whitehead's prediction is altered
by a factor
of 100, greatly diminishing the divergence between his prediction and Will's experimental limit.
Yet the collisions or near misses dictated
by these theories are inherently very improbable, perhaps only ten for the entire life
of our
galaxy during the past five billion years.32 With so few planets in existence, we could hardly assume that there would be much life elsewhere, at least not in our
galaxy.
Recently, an attempt has been made to tackle quantum gravity in the first moments after the Big Bang [cf New Scientist (online): «
Galaxies could give a glimpse

If what you interpret Paul as saying is that before creating all the myriad
galaxies and star systems God decided that They would put some humans on the third planet from an insignificant star on a little arm
of a middling
galaxy and that the first hominids chosen role would be to perform pretty much to spec and do something silly and rebellious (arguably without sufficient information as to consequences for themselves and their off spring, oh, and for serpents) and cause affront to the tripartite godhead warranting separation
of Gods grace from all their offspring; then we are left with people being chosen from way back before the Big Bang to do some terrible things like killing babies or betraying Jesus who was chosen on the same non date (time didn't exist before creation) to die in a fairly nasty fashion and thereby appease the righteous wrath
of himself and his fellow Trinitarians
by paying a penalty as a substitute for all future sins (
of believers?)

One insignificant planet orbiting one insignificant star out
of billions, in one insignificant
galaxy out

We accomplished this
by commencing with purposive and conscious actions
of humans (e.g., in the construction
of a building structure), which required the sustenance

by calculating the estimation
of how many
galaxies are in the universe, times how many planets in each, times how many likely have the conditions that support life, times the probability
of elements combining and creating life... the result is something like there could be 10 million planets that have life on them, aka aliens
[25] Lemaitre's famous differential equation for cosmic expansion is: R [2] = C / R + 1 / 3AR [2]- k where R is the scale factor for cosmic expansion which is proportional to the radius
of the universe when that radius has meaning; C > 0 and proportional to the average present - day density
of non-relativistic matter in the universe; cosmological constant, - C [0] < A < C [0], which serves to create a cosmic repulsion that keeps
galaxies from being drawn together
by gravity when it is positive and adds to the attractive force
of gravity when it is negative; and spatial curvature, k = -1,0, +1.
The [

A supermassive one lurks at the heart

galaxy — and yet still no one can work out what happens when matter is swallowed
by a black hole

The shape
of the universe can be determined
by measuring the average density
