Lecture 27: Spirals, Ellipticals, & Irregular (Oh My!)
What are the different types of galaxies? What hints can they give
us as to the structure and evolution of galaxies? This lecture
introduces the Hubble Classification System for galaxies, and describes
the properties of each major class. This detailed overview gives us
some tantalizing clues as to the formation and evolution of galaxies
that will be picked up in subsequent lectures.
Recorded 2006 February 13 in 1008 Evans Laboratory on the Columbus campus
