We don’t know what we don’t know.

Supernova shockwaves from another galaxy hitting this quiet dwarf galaxy would set off a round of star formation.

Maybe this underwhelming galaxy will one day be eaten by another.

Unexpected?

Their “Science” and their imagination are deficient.

They always think they know everything until they don’t. And then it starts all over again

Impossible Galaxy — how about we have impossible to analyze data. Nothing more than folks with budgets way beyond usefulness.

What hubris mankind has to think we understand anything, much less what is so far out into space that there’s virtually no hope of ever getting there.

It almost looks like it is composed of ONLY diffuse gas and dust. There appear to be NO pinpoints of light from any individual stars. Am I looking at it wrong?

No way! I thought Science had it all figured out decades ago.

True, and worse these days when “scientific” societies endorse irrational nonsense like men getting pregnant.

“irrational nonsense like men getting pregnant.”

It might be possible if the “man” has two X chromosomes.

And the more we find out the more we have to revise our understanding.

Now, this I find very interesting...

The most exciting and meaningful outcomes in science are when the findings have minimal uncertainties and do not fit current theories...

Grinds me that they’re highlighting a single low-income galaxy in a blighted part of the universe. Next thing you know, Democrats will be demanding budgetary support of star formation initiatives for minority galaxies. It’s not our fight!
