M51 THE WHIRLPOOL GALAXY A MULTI COLLISION OF GALAXIES (AT LEAST 3 OR MORE INVOLVED OVER THE EONS)

M51 is experiencing noticable changes in Fluid Tectonics, examined in the Fluid.htm page. Also, a bus bar coupling device called a platten at the M51 core, is examined in the Tympan-1.htm page.

The M51 right outer flank is noticably seen in ultra violet by Galex

Boris is barely a flicker, unlike Andromeda which is so huge in ultraviolet it is a second galaxy occupying the same space. An extra Andromeda ultra violet energy level component in forms of vertical spin is not discerned in the M51 view perhaps the resolution is too poor to show vertical spin, or there is none to speak of at M51.



Boris is hoving to the rear surrounded by residual ghost arms and sundry matter drifts.

In keeping with Boris - which obviously has a large outer very diffuse mantle or rubble - the Whirlpool itself has massive ultra dim arms around its outer right flank, probably more behind whose functions are blocked from view.









These next views (two the same, different enhancements) reveal more than ever the coils of methusala - that the center is light years away in a sinkhole deep in the center of a funnel vortex whose outermost lower and left arms are so far forward in comparison they are almost right in our face.

A second feature revealed by the image (nice touch) is that two arm segments of another galaxy are out in the open along the left flange - notice the two arm segments both of completely different media compositions than the rest of the arms, the segments are highly excited and thin, the other galaxy arm-media is thicker and diffuse.





STRETCHING BETWEEN GALAXIES

Stretching is said to occur when galaxies moving away drag matter in a characteristic flat ribbon band. Three examples are enough to show the procedure - the Whirlpool, Stephans quintet, and Ngc 5426.

The bridge between Boris and the Whirlpool is nothing more or less than a stretch which occurs when galaxies pull away in collision, an example of 'stretch' is seen in the Stephans Quintet, in which none of the Stephan galaxies have a circle core with giant arms of methusala winding outward in a forward thrusting direction.







Example Ngc 5426 is even better, in mind's eye rotate the Whirlpool and Boris into an alignment which matches these two next and you will see the 'bridge' between Boris and the Whirlpool is also a stretch between them (Boris and the Whirlpool).





Boris is also cylinder shaped, it's cannister tube extends rearward on a cant along a north/east axis.







The following M51 images are featured in the Galex.htm page.

WHIRLPOOL IN DEEP SPACE

The Whirlpool galaxy in this next photo seeths in a deep space hanging with ripples. (In the above Gendler image, the ripples may be very dim residual ghost arms extending out at long distances around the right flank).

Histogram enhanced



Greytone enhanced



The Noao original black and white image was enhanced looking for a thin spike of light in an area near the Whirlpool where a spearing spike was spotted in a Coelum image. A spike was spotted in the Noao image, good enough, originating at exactly the same source, but vectored in a different direction. Good enough. A light spike of some kind is issuing from an odd area near the Whirlpool. The greytone enhanced also revealed ripples in deep space surrounding the whirlpool, the rippling more readily seen in the histrogram view above.

The light spike is profiled next.

THIN SPIKE OF LIGHT SPEARS OUT OF ODD AREA NEAR THE WHIRLPOOL






At the Whirlpool, in an area over to the left and up from the satellite galaxy, we notice the following, in a black and white Noao image verrry highly enhanced.

From the same precise point in an odd formation, two spears spike out, each at a sharply different angle, in two different photos taken at different times by different telescope techniques, suggesting more than a co-incidence - that something hidden in the odd formation is producing a laser-like ray and that the something is rotating so that at different times the ray vectors in different directions.

The second occurrence is in a Coelum color image.

Focus the images together using eyesight to see 3d.

     

     

3d shows a thin dimly diffuse arm arcing back to the right, this is probably a fading residual arm of a former galaxy. In fact, the whole diffuse area surrounding the Whirlpool galaxy is suggestive of former galaxies now irradicated, perhaps more than one former galaxy is in the residues, in particular faint diffuse artifacts fondling around the bright satellite galaxy, many on a horizontal plane, creating an eerie impression that the satellite is now in repeat orbiting around the whirlpool's maindeck.

Do not forget that events unfold in timelines of millions of years due to actual extreme slow motions of the objects relative to the speed of light, where it can take 4 lightyears (4 of our daily years) just for one star to pass a next when galaxies collide or dance a waltz incoming from different directions.









Look at how thick M51 really, a huge diffuse understructure angling back makes it as thick as a cinnamon roll, the open vortex is the icing on top.

The Coelum original next shows only the icing.



The faceon view shows a large superstructure enterprise which seems to be drifting forward and gently upward toward the left. The forward drifting on an upward left slant is immediately seen in the stereo views above.



Three dark areas (no red light) are seen along the lower portion below the galaxy maindeck. Click for a better view of the missing red.

Only the icing is seen (at left) in this Noao black and white, zoomed from the original. No trace of anything (at right) besides icing in seen in the Coelum original



Apparent significant differences in the Whirlpool structure between images is strictly a question of differing photo telescope techniques. An interesting sidenote is that both images have a horizontal line crossing above the center core where seemingly different image shoots were seamed together.





Seeming dark sinkholes creviced between arms in the Coelum enhancements are imaging artificats, which look like this (next image) in Noao enhanced. The sinkholes appear in both the Noao image and the Coelum view, in the Coelum the sinkholes cannot be understood.

A straight line across M51 is real. The line cuts the image as if a telescope frame seam. The straight line appears in M51 images and cannot be explained in any self evident way.

Three different images, Coelum in color, by Gender (who calls the image a 'greytone'), and an Noao black and white, all show the same straight line.







In the color image, red is on one side of the line, abruptly blue on the other.



A second straight line is confusing anyway, seen in the Noao photo where closeup details are clippped as if by sharp media density usually found in image patching errors, a line is also noticable in the Gendler greytone, and irrationally so in the Coelum color view.

A barnacle such as seen to the right in the Noao strip (first next), are explained in the Polyps.htm page.







A small well formed tympany resonator seems clipped by the straight line, straight lines in cosmic objects (not image faults) are featured in the Incise.htm page.

This tympany (which has good details in an Noao view next), is featured in the Tympani3.htm page.





A comprehensive tympani survey is featured in the Tympan-1.htm page.

Moving on to the subject of supersize, a supersize view of M51 by Gendler - notice the darker areas in highlighted window - two curved areas of similar size and shape, this is   U n u s u a L   to say the least.

Zoom and histogram show major organizations within the dim media areas, meaning these areas have been caused by prior collisions or encounters.
