Want this question answered?
Increasing size---------------> Moon, Jupiter, Sun, The milky way galaxy correct me if i am wrong xx
Well if the sun were the size of a grapefruit we would not have anything in this solar system to compare it to, so lets make the sun the size of a grain of sand (2mm), the milky way would then be the size of our Sun, which is just over 109 the size of earth... however we are basing this off width, being that the Milky Way is disk shaped.
Milky way is the galaxy in which our Earth and the parent star Sun are located.
The Sun belongs to the Milky Way galaxy.
The Milky way galaxy
The sun is larger than about 95% of stars in the galaxy.
The galaxy in which we are located - and thus the galaxy in which our Sun, and our Solar System, is located, is known as the "Milky Way".
That would be the Milky Way Galaxy.
The Sun, a couple of billion other stars are all contained in the Milky Way Galaxy.
Well in the middle of the Milky Way is Sun and we are 149,600,000 km away from the Sun so we are not in the middle of the Milky Way Galaxy
The Milky Way
no. the sun is a star and the milky way is a galaxy.
