is the space in between Galaxys the same as in a galaxy?

Answer 1

i think its supposed to be made up of dark matter.

Answer 2

The main difference between the space in our Galaxy and other Galaxy's that are a very long ways off.
So for there have not been any black holes found in the space between Galaxy's, but have been found at the center of every Galaxy.

Answer 3

The space between galaxies should be the same as the space between stars in the galaxies, only less dense.

Answer 4

Basically, yes. The description of a galaxy is "Any of numerous large-scale aggregates of stars, gas, and dust that constitute the universe, containing an average of 100 billion (1011) solar masses and ranging in diameter from 1,500 to 300,000 light-years." Galaxies are generally spiral shaped because the center spins faster than the outside edges.

The space in and around and between galaxies is the same, just less traffic (radiation, radio waves, light waves, ionic winds, solar winds, gravity, stars, planets, moons, asteroids, cosmic debris, etc.) Because there is less physical matter between galaxies the pull of gravity is lessened and therefore it is considered less "curved".

Answer 5

Except that we consider it "less curved" than the space within galaxies - the answer is basically yes.

All manner of wierdness happens at the subatomic level and it is the same inside or between galaxies. Galaxies, of course, contain much matter while intergalactic space contains less matter (which is why it is less "curved")

Answer 6

Yes

Answer 7

All that's ever touched intergalatic space and us is light. Light travels through it just the same so as far as we know, yes.

Answer 8

Yes, but intergalactic spaces are much vaster.

Answer 9

notreally. See my explanation on your previous question.
