Abstract. In this paper, we consider the global behavior of weak solutions of Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations in time in a bounded domain-arbitrary forces. After proving the existence of bounded absorbing sets, we also obtain the conclusion on asymptotic compactness of global trajectories generated by the Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations of a compressible fluid.
