"SNIP...........
During their lifetimes, galaxies can inhabit [dark matter] halos of different sizes, ranging from masses typical of our own Milky Way to halos thousands of times more massive.
As galaxies fall through these larger halos, the superheated intergalactic plasma between them removes their gas in a fast-acting process called ram-pressure stripping.
You can think of it like a giant cosmic broom that comes through and physically sweeps the gas from the galaxies.
Brown said removing the gas from galaxies leaves them unable to form new stars:
It dictates the life of the galaxy because the existing stars will cool off and grow old. If you remove the fuel for star formation then you effectively kill the galaxy and turn it into a dead object.

Don't tell the GOP or they'll monitize the gas and we'll all have to pay for galaxy gas.

He's claiming credit for everything, so this degenerate cosmic crap is definitely on him and his illegitimate KGOP Cabal of Asskissing Cronies.
