do galaxies wobble?
When talking about the rotation of spiral galaxies, it almost always
seems to mean rotating in a plane. I was wondering if it was possible that the galaxy also precesses much like a spinning top. Perhaps this would occur when the galaxy was young. Has this ever been observed? Could it? Thanks, Ted
