Description	In this activity students investigate the different shapes of galaxies and their origin. They observe images taken from telescopes which depict interacting galaxies and in sequence they use the “Galaxy Crash” simulation in order to simulate the creation of these galaxies. In addition, using the simulation, students are given the opportunity to experiment and discover different galactical s...
