New sky map reveals hundreds of thousands of new galaxies

[Did You See Them]

Papers based on only the first 2% of a radio survey of the sky have been published in a special issue of a scientific journal.

More than 200 astronomers from 18 countries have published their work on the survey in a special issue of the scientific journal Astronomy & Astrophysics, which features the first 26 research papers to be published based on the research.

The publications - based on only the first 2% of the sky survey - has revealed hundreds of thousands of galaxies which had never been detected before and provided data on the physics of black holes and how galaxy clusters evolve.

The galaxies were detected using the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) telescope, which is located mainly in the Netherlands and it operated primarily by ASTRON, the Dutch astronomy institute.

Additional stations are based in Germany, the UK, France, Sweden, Poland and Ireland.
By using radio telescopes, the astronomers were able to "see" processes in the universe that aren't visible to optical instruments.

The papers that have been published cover astronomical topics as diverse as black holes, clusters of galaxies, and magnetic fields.

This makes one wonder, an ower solar system isn't even a speck in ower system, let alone our star. So how and wear, dose our self-importance fit into all this. Goin the opposite, down the scale to nano, microscopic, so above, so below ----awareness seems to be infinite well beyond our own, limited - self-importance. Or a rabbit hole with no, at either end, a calculatable end is way beyond comprehension.
This opens a big can of discussion without end. like the twilight zones room with infinite doors leading into infinite, Rooms with doors leading into eternity, of galaxies.

Yes so vast it's all beyond meaning to our every day reality.

So far away that it is outside of our reality and time line, they are hundreds and even millions of years away by our understanding of travel.

To get to any of those other galaxies we need to go out side of the material, into time travel for it to be in our time lines reality.

We see them as distant points of the distant past, yet many are actually in our distant future, they came before us.

Mind boggling o.0

Mind Boggling indeed !

Thanks for this article. I hadn't seen this news and am going to use it for the Earth Science class I teach.

As this subject directly relates to an observation I made here in the past concerning an idea of how and why the galaxies emit vast beams of seeming energy from their rotating centers, I will state it here once more. I believe that as the galaxies swirl, there is crushing gravitational force directed toward the center, pulverizing everything closest to that center and expelling it at great force above and below the galactic plane. They spray at great distances from the galaxy where the gravitational force is increasingly decreased. As this occurs, material begins to orbit larger more attracting nearby masses resulting in rotation and coalescing of gravity centers which become SUNS. Gradually, the galaxy, in this way, expels all its matter to the ever increasing orbiting systems on this new plane at 90 degrees to the original galaxy. If you view astronomical photos of galaxies, you will notice how their planes of existence differ from each other.

In my previous post about this, I mentioned that I thought that one of the reasons that populations of differing life forms occurred on a planet like ours is that the possibility exists that their original planets were about to move towards the dangerous central zone of the galaxy where they would be pulverized, and so they were moved farther away in the center of one of the outer arms of the galaxy. Differing races of people were set widely apart on a planet in order to allow them space to continue the development of their culture and decrease the possibility of conflict. This presupposes the existence of a Galactic Space Force which is responsible for protecting and distributing life forms throughout the Universe and gives credibility to the observed Alien Genetic Manipulation observed by abductees on vast Mother Ships. As new planetary orbs become able to support life, they may be further developed as Earth was and other planets which have become over populated surrender their over population to live on these new Earths.

Concerning the ability of astronomers to SEE and UNDERSTAND the structure of more of the Universe by developing instrumentation which can SEE in differing WAVELENGTHS, it would then be desirable to develop instruments which would capture individually all the wavelengths of the spectrum and combine them in computers. I believe that what they would see is AS ABOVE SO BELOW, all the forms of this world which we see around us, but in the SKY.

What is the point if we cannot escape our solar system?

Not us humans, and not at the moment. I think the drone we sent for aliens has just got out of the solar system.

Bill, they are mere words or possibly allege words from someone on the black side. What proof do we have of such, Say what they have done or is doing that suggest what he said is real. If they have such advancement then why Russia was able to catch up with them on technology particularly military might and China too is not being left behind. The likelihood is that they are working on things and they have set their goals too high and because of that they are making little progress. They probably are working on everything they can think off instead on concentrating on something that is more doable. Sure they have a lot of resources but talent (human resource) is something they cant make out of thin air.

Simple, because we have the ability to ponder, we do o.0

"hundreds of thousands of galaxies"

When I try to grasp that:

Galaxies.
(wow)

Then,
Thousands of galaxies.
(mind blown)

Then trying to expand that to
Hundreds of thousands of galaxies.
