The age of an individual star can vary; they were all made at different times and have different life spans. Stars can range from a few million to a several billion years old. The oldest star yet discovered, HE 1523-0901, is an estimated 13.2 billion years old.
A nebula contains dust and gas, which are the raw materials for forming new stars. Nebulae are regions in space where young stars are born from the gravitational collapse of these materials.
Scientists know that elliptical galaxies do not contain many young stars because observations have shown that they have mostly older stars with low levels of interstellar gas and dust needed for star formation. This lack of gas and dust suggests that these galaxies have exhausted their supply of materials for forming new stars and are no longer actively forming young stars.
Stars in the disk all orbit in the same direction and nearly the same plane, while halo stars have more randomly oriented orbits.Clusters of young stars are found only in the disk.Disk stars come in a broad range of masses and colors, while halo stars are mostly of low mass and red.Gas and dust are abundant in the disk but not in the halo.
Spiral galaxies tend to have blue colors due to the presence of young, hot stars that emit blue light. Elliptical galaxies, on the other hand, are typically redder in color because they contain older stars that emit more red light. This color contrast is a result of the different star formation histories and compositions of the two types of galaxies.
Astronomers refer to a galaxy with a jumbled scattering of stars as an "irregular galaxy." These galaxies lack a defined shape or structure, distinguishing them from spiral or elliptical galaxies. Irregular galaxies often contain young stars, gas, and dust, and they can be the result of gravitational interactions or collisions with other galaxies.
Milky Way: Arms extend from a core full of black holes Elliptical Galaxy: Contains mostly older stars with a red color Irregular Galaxy: Contains dust, gas, and young stars Apex :)
irregular galaxy
The spiral galaxy's.
Yes, there are young stars in the Milky Way Galaxy.
Both - all galaxies contain young and old stars.
A nebula contains dust and gas, which are the raw materials for forming new stars. Nebulae are regions in space where young stars are born from the gravitational collapse of these materials.
Yes: 1) THERE IS A CHOCLATE BAR THAT IS CALLED THAT AND IT IS VERY TASTY 2) WE LIVE IN THE MILKY WAY GALAXY IT IS A BARRED SPIRAL GALAXY AND IS MADE OF MOSTLY OLD STARS BUT ALSO YOUNG STARS
Most new, young, stars can be found in the arms of spiral galaxies
It's not "galaxy stars", but galaxies, that have the black holes at their center.All, or most, galaxies have a giant black hole at their center.

None. A nebula is a cloud of gas and dust that can contain young stars, but a nebula is not a planet by any means.
