ASTRONOMY PICTURE OF THE DAY: GALAXIES

LAB for Astronomy 101

Go to the Astronomy Picture of the Day website.

http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/lib/aptree.html.

On the Index, you will find the top category, “Galaxies,” which includes such links as “Clusters of Galaxies,” “Colliding Galaxies,” etc.

Find THREE objects from among these links; read about them, and then write three interesting facts that you learned about each one.
