Examples of 'elliptical galaxies' in a sentence

Meaning of "elliptical galaxies"

Elliptical galaxies are a type of galaxy that exhibits an elliptical shape, ranging from nearly spherical to elongated. Unlike spiral galaxies, elliptical galaxies have a smooth, featureless appearance and lack spiral arms. They are composed mostly of older stars and have little to no ongoing star formation. Elliptical galaxies are common in the universe, often found at the centers of galaxy clusters
