🪐 In the spiral galaxy Messier 81, astronomers use precise observations of variable stars called Cepheids to confirm that light travels at a constant speed—299,792 kilometers per second—across millions of light-years. By timing the changes in these stars' brightness, scientists can measure vast intergalactic distances, showing that the universal speed limit of light holds true even when crossing the immense gulf between galaxies. ✨ #speedoflight⚡#Messier81⚡#spacefacts⚡#nasa⚡#galaxy⚡#stars⚡#astronomy⚡#universe⚡#cosmos⚡#space 👉subscribe Universe Mysteries 👉more Channels
