URIhttp://vishub.org/excursions/1817Galaxy classification and formationenThis activity aims to introduce to students the concept of varying galactic
morphologies. Students will look in detail at images of numerous galaxies
derived from the ‘Faulkes telescopes’ and they will attempt to classify
them according to their own notion and then according to the Hubble
Classification Scheme. Moreover, the class will try to investigate the origin
of the shapes of the galaxies that stem from galaxy interactions using the
“Galaxy Crash’ simulation.
