Great Attractor Mystery Solved? Hundreds of Galaxies Discovered Hiding In Plain Sight
About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
Hundreds of hidden nearby galaxies have been studied for the first time, shedding light on a mysterious gravitational anomaly dubbed the Great Attractor. Despite being just 250 million light years from Earth—very close in astronomical terms—the new galaxies had been hidden from view until now by our own galaxy, the Milky Way. Using CSIRO's Parkes radio telescope equipped with an innovative receiver, an international team of scientists were able to see through the stars and dust of the Milky Way, into a previously unexplored region of space. The discovery may help to explain the Great Attractor region, which appears to be drawing the Milky Way and hundreds of thousands of other galaxies towards it with a gravitational force equivalent to a million billion Suns. the team found 883 galaxies, a third of which had never been seen before. Scientists have been trying to get to the bottom of the mysterious Great Attractor since major deviations from universal expansion were first discovered in the 1970s and 1980s. Astronomers don't actually understand what's causing this gravitational acceleration on the Milky Way or where it's coming from. They know that in this region there are a few very large collections of galaxies we call clusters or superclusters, and our whole Milky Way is moving towards them at more than two million kilometres per hour. The research identified several new structures that could help to explain the movement of the Milky Way, including three galaxy concentrations (named NW1, NW2 and NW3) and two new clusters (named CW1 and CW2). Scientists have used a range of techniques but only radio observations have really succeeded in allowing us to see through the thickest foreground layer of dust and stars. An average galaxy contains 100 billion stars, so finding hundreds of new galaxies hidden behind the Milky Way points to a lot of mass we didn't know about until now. The study involved researchers from Australia, South Africa, the US and the Netherlands, and was published today in the Astronomical Journal.

It's Einstein's E=MC2; God times thee; the Big Man cometh

Will Andromeda collide with the Milky Way before we reach the Great Attractor?
-
the video still doesnt explain what the pulling force is. Is it a huge black hole? or the combined gravitation pull of all these other galaxies packed so close? The source of dark energy?

I'm a new subscriber & really enjoy your videos ☺. I like how you describe things clearly for those of us who are newer to stargazing. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

big bang is gonna happen again at some point
the universe is rich with mystery. -
es un gran vídeo y un gran descubrimiento es verdad que estamos despertando o nos están desvelando lo que ya sabían, ahora ya tienen una explicación para las anomalías, magnéticas y gravitacionales aparece catalina a continuación alineación planetaria después planeta X descubierto para después meteorito XT68 después Descubiertas ondas gravitacionales cambio climático seísmos volcanes grandes mareas animales que pierden el norte en sus migraciones , guerra por petroleo y gas, virus que no existían y hacen escasear el agua y no procrearse el hombre super bacterias para las que no ahí antibióticos,
alimentos procesados con venenos y transgenicos cancerígenos o incluso alimentos irradiados que pasan por sanos, que nos esta pasando estamos locos el presente es el resultado de nuestro pasado vamos a medrar ya no ahí vuelta atrás que se nos recuerde al menos por haber intentado salvar la tierra y a todo lo que habita en ella Dios os Bendiga -
absolutely phenomenal video clip.

no os asustéis al abrir los ojos toda esa materia estaba ahí solo que camuflada por la luz o anti materia que escapa a dicha y por eso no se ve todo es vibración y polaridad las ondas gravitacionales fluctúan en todas direcciones como un barco deja una estelas de olas en su avance y empuje en el mar o un avión en aire lo mismo se comporta la materia oscura con diferentes densidades dependiendo de estas ondas que comprimen o estiran la materia y el espacio tiempo.

Φοβερό γραφικό στο 0:55!!! Πολύ ωραίο! Ευχαριστούμε!

Stunning...!!! Thank you so much!!!!
-
Awesome , I was looking forward to this thank you so much...
-
Great Video thank you
-
I wonder about the same stars showing up on my sky more than a month , three of them on on line (. . .) and others the same near to it but a little bit oblique , any explanation ?
-
The big bang happen in more then one spot we are going home.

Great Videos nemesis maturity.............Keep them coming......................

"Great Attractor [Yahuah Elohiym Tseva'ot / The LORD God of hosts] appears to be drawing the Milky Way and hundreds of thousands of other galaxies towards it . . ." = preparation/start of Isaiah 34:4: "All the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be ROLLED UP LIKE A SCROLL; all their host shall fall down as the leaf falls from the vine, and as fruit falling from a fig tree." ▪ "Hundreds of galaxies discovered hiding in plain sight" = John 14:2: "In My Father's house are MANY MANSIONS; . . .I go to prepare a place for you"; & Matthew 10:26: "...For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known"; & Isaiah 65:17: "For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth, . ."😊 (Brackets & emphasis mine.) Nice video! Thank you, NM.
