Galaxies until minute 2:00
As you watch, write definitions in the table for
the different types of galaxies.
Types of Galaxies: Spirals
Spiral galaxies are so-named
because of the graceful shapes of
arms emanating from a bright
central nucleus.
(Hubble Space Telescope

Types of Galaxies: Ellipticals
Elliptical galaxies lack spiral arms and dust and
contain stars that are generally identified as
being old.
Types of Galaxies: Irregulars
Irregular galaxies
lack any specific
form and contain
stars, gas and dust
generally associated
with youth (They
are “new” galaxies.
