The video tutorial explores galaxies, which are massive groups of stars, gas, and dust held together by gravity. It explains the three main types of galaxies: spiral, elliptical, and irregular, each with distinct characteristics. Spiral galaxies, like the Milky Way, have spiral arms and are rich in gas and young stars. Elliptical galaxies are more spherical and contain older stars with little gas. Irregular galaxies lack a defined shape and have abundant star formation. The video also discusses galaxy distribution in space, noting that galaxies often cluster together, such as the Milky Way's local group, which includes the nearby Andromeda galaxy.
