GALAXIES: STAR CITIES <br /> IN SPACE! <br /> <br />Galaxies are very large clusters of stars, <br />Like gigantic star cities in outer space! <br />Where some are Spiral or Elliptical or <br />Irregular, - <br />Depending upon their sizes and shapes! <br />Each galaxy contains star dusts, a few <br />black holes, - <br />Along with over hundred billion stars! <br />And astronomers say that there are some <br />100 billion galaxies, - seen by them so far! <br />Our solar system and earth, is located in the <br />Milky Way galaxy; <br />While our closest galactic neighbour the <br />‘Andromeda’, - <br />With naked eyes, you can hardly see! <br />Andromeda is estimated to be some <br />2.5 million light years away; <br />And astronomers say our neighbour is trying <br />to visit us, - <br />To merge with our Milky Way and to stay! ! <br /> -Raj Nandy <br /> 09 Mar 09 <br />(Kindly read my: ‘MilkyWayGalaxy-Our Celestial <br /> Home’ – to appreciate this better.All based on <br /> true facts!)<br /><br />RAJ NANDY<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/galaxies-star-cities-in-space/
