    the search for a black hole at the galactic centre
    Example sentencesExamples
    • In fact, the Universe as observed today seems to have barely a fraction of the mass needed to keep galaxies from flying apart, based on the rotations of the stars in the galaxy about the galactic center.
    • The galactic centre of our galaxy is one of Integral's prime targets.
    • Our Milky Way galaxy is gobbling up its galactic neighbor, Sagittarius, and scientists this week offered documentary proof of this continuing cosmic cannibalism.
    • The space radiation environment encompasses a broad spectrum of radiation ranging from infra-red to galactic cosmic radiation.
    • Radiation could perhaps be a show-stopper because the environment in space - there's galactic cosmic rays.
    • However, there are larger explosions, notably those that go on in the middle of active galactic nucleii, like quasars.
    • The second are galactic cosmic rays, which, although not as lethal as solar flares, represent a continuous background radiation to which the crew would be exposed.

    • By contrast, to reach our nearest galactic neighbor, the Andromeda galaxy, you'd need only twenty-five Milky Ways.
    • The galactic centre can only be observed at certain wavelengths, such as X-rays, because large amounts of dust lie in our line of sight and this blocks out optical light.
