The Blue Marble
Interacting galaxies are galaxies whose gravitational fields result in a disturbance of one another. An example of a minor interaction is a satellite galaxy disturbing the primary galaxy's spiral arms. Major interactions can lead to galaxy mergers.
Beyond the Milky Way lies the Local Group and other nearby galaxies. Interactions between these massive islands of stars drive galactic evolution and star formation.

Earth

The Blue Marble

Earth is the third planet from the Sun and the only astronomical object known to harbor life. With over 70% of its surface covered by ocean, it supports a diverse biosphere and complex climate systems protected by a magnetic field and atmosphere.

The Moon

Earth's Satellite

The Moon is Earth's only natural satellite. It is the fifth-largest satellite in the Solar System and the largest among planetary satellites relative to the size of the planet that it orbits. Its gravitational influence is the main driver of Earth's tides and very slowly lengthens Earth's day.
