A couple of quick questions after watching a video on the helectic model that the solar system follows on it's course around the galactic center. Please bare with me these maybe idiotic questions.
A) Are black holes bound to the spin of the galaxy or do they sit in place on the galactic plane?
B) If not black holes does anything do this?
C) Can an object travel in the opposite direction of the galactic spin or is there some sort of tidal force?
D) At any point in our movement do we come closer to other stars?
E) Do certain stars travel faster in orbit?
F) If so are there any objects that go faster then the "arms" thus going through them?
F) If so is it possible that a star could "catch up" to us?
Again I hope these questions aren't dumb. I really am fascinated by the idea of the helectic travel through the galaxy. Thanks.
