Definition of galaxy in English English dictionary: the Milky Way Galaxy, from when it was thought the Universe (our universe) had only one galaxy; The Milky Way; the apparent band of concentrated stars which appears in the night sky over earth
So may thy cheekes red outweare scarlet dye, / And their white, whitenesse of the Galaxie .; Any of the collections of many millions of stars, galactic dust, black holes, etc. existing as independent and coherent systems, of which there are billions in the known universe; an "island universe" of billions of stars; a component of our Universe made up of gas and a large number (usually more than a million) of stars held together by gravity; A group formed by IBM, NEC, Hitachi, Sony, and Pioneer for standardization of DVD watermarking technology; tufted evergreen perennial herb having spikes of tiny white flowers and glossy green round to heart-shaped leaves that become coppery to maroon or purplish in fall; n any of numerous large-scale aggregates of stars, gas, and dust, and containing multiple solar systems; earth is a part of the Milky Way galaxy; an organized system of many hundreds of millions of stars, often mixed with gas and dust The universe contains billions of galaxies; A galaxy is a large group of stars, gas and dust all gravitationally bound together Our galaxy, the Milky Way appears to be a rather large spiral galaxy with several billion stars in it Galaxies appear in all sorts of shapes and sizes, from tiny little ones that orbit our galaxy, to massive elliptical galaxies, like those at the centre of the Virgo cluster; A splendid assemblage of persons or things; A galaxy is an extremely large group of stars and planets that extends over many billions of light years. Astronomers have discovered a distant galaxy; a collection of billions of stars, galactic dust, black holes, etc. of which there are billions in the known universe. They usually form spiral or elliptical shapes likely due to a central gravity well (i.e. giant black hole), but some form irregular shapes (especially if they are broken away from another galaxy); A large assemblage of stars (and sometimes interstellar gas and dust), typically containing millions to hundreds of billions of member stars A galaxy is held together by the gravitational attraction of all its member stars (and other material) on one another Most galaxies are either of a flattened, spiral form or a fatter ellipsoidal shape without a spiral pattern The "Milky Way'' galaxy, of which our Sun is a part, is a spiral galaxy with a disk about 100,000 light-years across containing roughly 400 billion stars Our Sun is in the disk, about 2/3 of the way out from the center, and orbits around the center for the Milky way taking about 200 million years to go around once; An assemblage of millions to hundreds of billions of stars; A galaxy is an island of stars in moving in space Our galaxy is called the Milky Way Galaxies come in different shapes, the most common being spiral and elliptical The Milky Way is a spiral galaxy; A large aggregations of stars bound together gravitationally There are three major classifications of galaxies-- spiral, elliptical, and irregular -- and several subclassifications The sun belongs to a spiral galaxy, the Milky Way galaxy; a splendid assemblage (especially of famous people) (astronomy) a collection of star systems; any of the billions of systems each having many stars and nebulae and dust; "`extragalactic nebula' is a former name for `galaxy'; The Galaxy is the extremely large group of stars and planets to which the Earth and the Solar System belong. The Galaxy consists of 100 billion stars; a gravitationally bound collection of millions or billions of stars, gas, and dust; a large collection of stars, dust, and gas in space; a system of millions or billions of stars held together by gravity GEOGRAPHY the scientific study of the earth's surface features GLOBE an object shaped like a ball with a map of the earth on it; A large group of stars, gas, and dust containing an average of 100 billion stars and ranging from 1,500 and 300,000 light years in diameter Here is an example (not taken here) of M101 which is a spiral galaxy There are other types of galaxies including elliptical and barred spirals; If you talk about a galaxy of people from a particular profession, you mean a group of them who are all famous or important. He is one of a small galaxy of Dutch stars on German television. = array. Any of the billions of systems of stars and interstellar matter that make up the universe. Galaxies vary considerably in size, composition, structure, and activity, but nearly all are arranged in groups, or clusters, containing from a few galaxies to as many as 10,000. Each is composed of millions to trillions of stars; in many, as in the Milky Way Galaxy, nebulae can be detected. A large fraction of the bright galaxies in the sky are spiral galaxies, with a main disk in which spiral arms wind out from the centre. The arms contain the greatest concentration of a spiral galaxy's interstellar gas and dust, where stars can form. Surrounding the centre (nucleus) is a large, usually nearly spherical nuclear bulge. Outside this and the disk is a sparse, more or less spherical galactic halo. In elliptical galaxies, which vary greatly in size, stars are distributed symmetrically in a spherical or spheroidal shape. Dwarf ellipticals (with only a few million stars) are by far the most common kind of galaxy, though none is conspicuous in the sky. Irregular galaxies, such as the Magellanic Clouds, are relatively rare. Radio galaxies are very strong sources of radio waves. Seyfert galaxies, with extremely bright nuclei, often emit radio waves and may be related to quasars.

Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy: a humorous British radio programme written by Douglas Adams, which later became a book and a television programme. It is a science fiction story about an Englishman called Arthur Dent who gets on a spaceship just before the Earth is destroyed, and the adventures he has in space with the other characters on this spaceship
Milky Way Galaxy: Large spiral galaxy (roughly 150,000 light-years in diameter) that contains Earth's solar system. It includes the multitude of stars whose light is seen as the Milky Way, the irregular luminous band that encircles the sky defining the plane of the galactic disk. The Milky Way system contains hundreds of billions of stars and large amounts of interstellar gas and dust. Because the dust obscures astronomers' view of many of its stars, large areas could not be studied before the development of infrared astronomy and radio astronomy (see radio and radar astronomy). Its precise constituents, shape, and true size and mass are still not known; it is believed to contain large amounts of dark matter and a massive black hole at its core. The Sun lies in one of the Galaxy's spiral arms, about 27,000 light-years from the centre
