What is a galaxy?

A galaxy can be defined as a collection or group of several billions of stars and interstellar matter, that typically are existing independently and by themselves in space.

This ultimately implies that, the largest or greatest number of stars are found in a galaxy.

The types of galaxy and their description.

1. Irregular galaxy: it does not have a distinct regular shape.

  • It doesn't have a distinct regular shape unlike elliptical or spiral galaxies.

2. Elliptical Galaxy: it forms a perfect sphere or an ellipse and it is flattened to some degree.

  • It is the most abundant type of galaxies with a perfectly ellipsoidal shape and a smooth, flattened surface to some degree.

3. Galaxy: it is a collection of several billion stars and interstellar matter isolated in space.

  • It is a collection or group of several billions of stars and interstellar matter, that typically are existing independently and by themselves in space.

4. Spiral galaxy: it has a central core from which curved arms spiral outward.
