BLOG ANSWER:
- The galactic bulge... that's a tricky one that's for sure... from what I've been able to find...
A bulge is a concentration of stars and lots of dust in the center of a spiral galaxy. It is the oldest part of the galaxy and therefore contains the oldest stars and matter. This dust makes it hard to see and study. Using the 4m (159-inch) Telescope at the National Science Foundation's Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, Chile, and the Hydra spectrograph, they measured the speeds of nearly 3,000 stars, covering a swath in the bulge some 1 500 light years from the Galactic Center. The Galactic bulge, some 25 000 light years from the sun, is one of the oldest parts of the galaxy, yet it contains stars nearly as rich in metals as the Sun. Recent studies suggest that the bulge formed relatively quickly and was one of the first parts of the Galaxy to form. The bulge contains roughly 20 billion suns of material. WHY can't we see it from Earth? We can...but so faintly because it is surrounded by dust and so far away!
BLOG QUESTION (last one for Sky Science for a while...):
- Let's say you go outside tonight and see the moon in its wanning crescent phase. What moon phase will you see in approximately 10-11 days?

I would be waxing quarter to find that answere I counted 3 days for every phace till I got to 11 I startede with New moon because New moon is right after wanning crescent. See you tomorrow BYe!!!!
1st quarter cuz three days from the waning crescent is new moon three days after that(6days)is waxing crescent and another 3 days(12ish)would be 1st quarter
it be a first quarter going into a waxing gibbouse because if you say every 3 days it changes then if you count the days and name the phases thats what you get
1st quarter, cause I looked on my calender.
