magellanic adj.麥哲倫的;麥哲倫發現的。

magellanic clouds

They have irregular shape . the two irregular galaxies large magellanic cloud and the small magellanic cloud are two satellite galaxies of ours . they are visible by naked eyes , but not visible from hong kong :顧名思義,這種星系形狀是不規則的,近南天極的大小麥哲倫云是銀河系的伴星系,雖然它們肉眼可見,可惜位于北半球的香港看不見。

Caption : : the sky seen in the lower hemisphere has distinctive cosmic features , such as the large and small magellanic cloud and the keyhole eta carina nebula , which are not found in the sky of the upper hemisphere 南半球的星空與我們的不大一樣,南半球星空蘊藏很多獨有的寶藏,如大小麥哲倫云和圖中的船底座匙孔星云。

People in the southern hemisphere can see the large magellanic cloud , which is about 160 , 000 light - years from earth , and the small magellanic cloud , which is about 180 , 000 light - years away 南半球的人可以看到大麥哲倫星云,離地球16萬光年遠,以及18萬光年遠的小麥哲倫星云。

On february 23 , 1987 , astronomers got the next best thing : a supernova in one of the milky way ' s satellite galaxies , the large magellanic cloud 在1987年2月23日,天文學家獲得了次佳的機會:銀河系的衛星星系大麥哲倫云中,發生了一次超新星爆發。

If the milky way has a very extended corona ( much bigger than the one proposed by spitzer ) , this corona could strip off gas from the magellanic clouds 假如銀河系有一個非常大的星系冕(遠遠大于史畢哲所想像的) ,則它將可拉扯出麥哲倫云的氣體。

The most recent supernova visible by naked eyes was the sn1987a , which is located in a small nearby galaxy , the large magellanic cloud 近年來可以用肉眼看到的超新星爆發,發生在一個稱為大麥哲倫云的小星系內的sn1987a 。

The large and small magellanic clouds orbit our own galaxy , the milky way , and are sufficiently close for detailed study 大小麥哲倫星云都繞我們所在的星系銀河運行,并且離得很近有利于詳盡的研究。

This halo could extend all the way to the milky way ' s nearest neighboring galaxies , the magellanic clouds , scientists said 科學家說,該日冕可能一直延伸到銀河系最近的星系麥哲倫云。

In either model , however , the magellanic clouds have lost large amounts of gas , producing many of the hvcs 然而,在這兩種模型里,麥哲倫云都喪失了大量氣體,因而制造出許多hvc 。

Unfortunately , the large magellanic cloud is near the south celestial pole and is not visible in hong kong 可惜的是,大麥哲倫云位于南天極附近,結果住在香港的市民無緣得見。

In 1987 , the brightest supernova in recent history occurred in the large magellanic clouds 1987年,近代歷史上最明亮的超新星出現在大麥哲倫星系。

The magellanic clouds are irregular galaxies of this type 麥哲倫星云就是這種類型的不規則星系。
