A Galaxy Is Born

A Galaxy is Born (New)

As Galaxies can have several beginnings, let us talk about a Spiral Galaxy similar to our Milky Way Galaxy

In this version of Galactic Creation, we will use the same process that creates a Star

In the Universe there is a large cloud of hydrogen gas - and as the gas cools, it compresses and creates a large Star - its compression is not balanced and because all the matter doesn't fall inwards in a completely balanced fashion, it creates a spinning effect on the inward velocity of the circular formation and the New Born Star is rotating

Now, this Star is not the same size as our Sun, this Star is a "Red Hyper Giant"

The Star is born, and it is massive, this one Star it the weight of an entire Galaxy

As the Star goes through “Solar Cycles” of heating and compressing, then cooling, with the outer layers hardening, and the internal pressure then increasing until it Novas and blasts off layer after layer of matter, creating a gigantic bubble of matter all around itself, as the Star is spinning and has an axis, the matter starts to push outwards at the equator, while the mater at the poles starts to get sucked in by rotational force, and the Star forms a disk shaped spiral around itself

This disk stretches and pulls away from the Center Star due to the angular momentum, and so it pulls outwards, moving further and further away from the Central Star

Within this newly formed disk, large clumps of Mass & Matter give birth to even more Stars, these “Second Generation Stars,” while not as large as the “Central Star,” go through the exact same process as the Central Star, and the Second Generation Stars nova and create disks of material around themselves, but because the Cores of the mass that result from the Novas of the Second Generation Stars are not large enough, the smaller Second Generation Stars birth Planets, instead of more Stars... (Or even possibly a mix of both Planets & Stars; within their “Solar Systems...”)

As for the Central Star, this “Solar Cycle” of heating and compressing, exploding, expanding and compressing... all the while the Star is fusing and converting the elements within the elemental layers into denser and denser elements, creating a denser and denser Core, composed primarily of Iron

The Cycle repeats itself over and over again until there is a tipping point in the Star - where enough Iron has amassed in the Core - at this finite tipping point, the Central Star collapses and becomes a black hole.

By the time this happens this "Central Solar System" is so big it is actually now a Galaxy

This cycle can occur in multiple configurations, with possibly multiple Stars originally at the center, or a combination of a Central Star and equal or almost equal sized Stars in orbit around the Center, in turn creating all sorts of funny shapes and configurations, with most, if not all, forming up into a Standard Structure, we call “The Spiral Galaxy”

Some Galaxies simply have a large cluster of “Solar Systems” at their center that end up creating the Galaxy but they are all born in about the same scenario. And they all have a tendency to form up and create the Spiral Galaxy
