To honour the centenary of that discovery, the space telescope that bears his name was used to create a composite image of Andromeda revealing 200 million individual stars — still just a ...

Given the intense gravitational pull of Andromeda, these galaxies should have been stripped of their star-forming gas long ago, similar to what is observed around the Milky Way.

These data provided Weisz and his team the first comprehensive 3D map of our galactic ... pull of Andromeda, these galaxies should have been stripped of their star-forming gas long ago, similar ...
