Work on Ram Pressure

[edit]

While your work seems to have mead vast improvements on what is currently in the Ram Pressure page, I see a few things that you might want to work on.

- Firstly, I agree that some of the wording in the galaxy cluster example is awkward, the blunt-body example seems like it could possibly use some rewording. The example seems to be referring to at least two different sets of "air", and I think it might be more clear if the two were distinguished.
- Image: Perhaps I am misunderstanding the caption, but it suggests that I should see dust trailing NGC 4402 above and to the right of it. While I might see some trailing off to the immediate right, the picture cuts off. Is there a picture that shows this better? According to magellanic stream, (though uncited, so maybe not true) ram pressure may be responsible for the stream from the LMC. If so, there should be images of that stream that would be easy to understand.
- Clusters example: Galaxies in the Universe (Sparke 2007) talks briefly about ram pressure and the subsequent loss of gas to have an effect on a galaxies ability to form stars. You may want to mention this.

Overall, good job. Kg5601 (talk) 03:28, 10 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
