Discussion Overview
The discussion revolves around the search for a comprehensive database or table that lists various parameters of galaxies, including their masses, types, black hole masses, and dark matter content. The inquiry is made by a hobbyist with a background in physics, seeking resources available on the internet.
Discussion Character
- Exploratory, Technical explanation, Debate/contested
Main Points Raised
- One participant requests information on a database of galaxies, specifying the types of parameters they are interested in.
- Another participant inquires about the recency of the data, suggesting that the age of the data may be relevant to its accuracy.
- A subsequent reply indicates that as long as the data is deemed accurate, the age should not be a concern.
- A participant provides a link to a product that resembles a periodic table of galaxies, suggesting it may be relevant to the original request.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
Participants express differing views on the importance of data recency, with some emphasizing accuracy over age. The discussion does not reach a consensus on the best resource or the significance of data age.
Contextual Notes
There are limitations regarding the specificity of the requested data and the potential variability in the accuracy of different sources. The discussion does not clarify the definitions of the parameters sought or the criteria for data accuracy.
