The Milky Way. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is typical: it has hundreds of billions of stars, enough gas and dust to make billions more stars, and at least ten times as much dark matter as all the stars and gas put together. And it’s all held together by gravity. Like more than two-thirds of the known galaxies, the Milky Way has a spiral shape. Astronomers used Hubble’s deep-sky surveys to study the evolution of 400 galaxies similar to the Milky Way and noted their appearance at various stages of development over a time span of 11 billion years. Judging from images of these far-flung galaxies, they found the Milky Way likely began as a faint, blue, low-mass object containing lots of

The Milky Way galaxy is the home of the Sun and our solar system. There are 200 billion other stars in the Milky Way galaxy too. Our galaxy is a spiral galaxy, with a bulged center and arms that start in the center and form a flat pinwheel shape. The galaxy is about 90,000 light-years across. The Sun is located about two-thirds of the way out

On the Planner, place the Observer's pin on the initial shooting spot. Set the date to the next new moon happening between April and August. Use the time bar to set the time to the end of the evening astronomical twilight. Tap on the Night AR button, check the Milky Way and adjust your position. Scouting photos. Email: media@esa.int. Astronomers have pondered for years why our galaxy, the Milky Way, is warped. Data from ESA’s star-mapping satellite Gaia suggest the distortion might be caused by an ongoing collision with another, smaller, galaxy, which sends ripples through the galactic disc like a rock thrown into water.
