Spiral Galaxy A galaxy whose arms curve outward in a pinwheel pattern. Contains solar systems and nebulae (gas and dust). Our Galaxy: MILKY WAY

Spiral Galaxy

A galaxy shaped like a flattened ball, containing only old stars. Elliptical Galaxy A galaxy shaped like a flattened ball, containing only old stars. Example: M87 galaxy

Elliptical Galaxies

Irregular Galaxy A galaxy that does not have a regular shape. Example: The Large Magellanic Cloud

Irregular Galaxy

Our Cluster or Galaxy Group Local Group
