galaxy that does not have a distinct regular shape, unlike a spiral or an elliptical galaxy

AI overview

An irregular galaxy is a galaxy that doesn't have a clear, organized shape like the familiar spiral or elliptical galaxies do. Studying these shapeless galaxies helps astronomers understand how galaxies can form and change, particularly when they collide or are disrupted by gravitational forces.
