What is the Great Attractor?
—The Great Attractor is a mysterious gravitational anomaly in the universe that is pulling nearby galaxies towards it.
What is dark energy?
—Dark energy is a form of energy that makes up about 2/3 of the universe. It is responsible for the accelerating expansion of the universe.
Where is the Great Attractor located?
—The Great Attractor is located in the Zone of Avoidance, a region in the universe where there is too much intervening matter to see it.
What is the red rectangle nebula?
—The red rectangle nebula is a protoplanetary nebula surrounding a dying star. It is located about 2300 light years away in the constellation Monoceros.
What is Planet 9?
—Planet 9, also known as Planet X, is a hypothetical planet in our outer solar system. Its existence is predicted based on the unusual orbits of smaller objects in the solar system.
