Galaxy
A galaxy is a massive, gravitationally bound system that consists

stars, an

interstellar medium of gas and dust, and dark matter. Typical galaxies range
dwarfs with as few as ten million stars up

giants with one trillion

stars, all orbiting a common center of gravity. Galaxies can also contain a large
number of multiple star systems and star clusters as well as various types of
interstellar clouds. Historically, galaxies have been categorized according to their
apparent shape. Interactions between nearby galaxies, which may ultimately result
a galaxy merger, may induce episodes of significantly increased star
formation, producing what is called a starburst galaxy. There are probably more
than a hundred billion galaxies
a thousand
usually separated

the observable universe. Most galaxies are

a hundred thousand parsecs

diameter and are

one another by distances

the order of millions

of parsecs. Intergalactic space, the space between galaxies, is filled

tenuous gas with an average density less than one atom per cubic meter. There is
some evidence that supermassive black holes may exist at the center of many, if
not all, galaxies. These massive objects are believed to be the primary cause of
active galactic nuclei found at the core of some galaxies. The Milky Way galaxy
appears to harbor at least one such object within its nucleus.

Richard Halliburton's book "Second Book of Marvels"

1938 said the

Great Wall of China is the only man-made object visible from the Moon. This belief
has persisted

today, assuming urban legend status, sometimes even

entering school textbooks. Arthur Waldron, author

the most authoritative

history of the Great Wall, has speculated that the belief might go back
fascination with the "canals" once believed to exist
simple: If people

the

Mars. The logic was

Earth can see the Martians' canals, the Martians might

be able to see the Great Wall. But in fact, the Great Wall is only a few meters wide similar in size

highways and airport runways - and is about the same color

as the soil surrounding it. It cannot be seen

the unaided eye from the

distance of the Moon, much less from Mars. If the Great Wall were visible from the
Moon, it would also be apparent from near-Earth orbit, but from there it is barely
visible, and only
more conspicuous

nearly perfect conditions. The Great Wall of China is no

outer space than many other man-made objects.
