AI Thread Summary
Data on intergalactic distances and recession speeds for named galaxies is sought, with a reference to the Wikipedia list of Messier objects for well-known galaxies. The formula for calculating recession speed is provided as v = H * D, where H is approximately 75 km/s/Mpc. It is noted that the Messier objects are relatively close, resulting in small velocities. Additional assistance or resources for more detailed data on specific galaxies is requested. The discussion emphasizes the need for accessible information on this topic.

Thread 'Does it make sense to build new radio telescopes?'

TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

This thread is dedicated to the beauty and awesomeness of our Universe. If you feel like it, please share video clips and photos (or nice animations) of space and objects in space in this thread. Your posts, clips and photos may by all means include scientific information; that does not make it less beautiful to me (n.b. the posts must of course comply with the PF guidelines, i.e. regarding science, only mainstream science is allowed, fringe/pseudoscience is not allowed). n.b.
