Ummmmm the sun is not near the Edge of the milky way.The milky way is just the milky way.The milky way is spiral anyways?
not being mean
No, the Sun is a part of the Milky Way. Our Solar System orbits around the center of the Milky Way. Our sun goes along with the general spin of the entire Milky Way galaxy, and is positioned rather near the edge. It doesn't orbit it in the sense I think you mean.
toward the edge
Rather at the edge.
yes
It is on the edge of the sagitarrius arm and at the edge of the milky way galaxy the third planet away from the sun.
the answer is zero the sun is in the milky way... HELLO....
Our sun is about 25,000 light years from the centre of the milky way.. It's about half way out from the centre of our galaxy.. So our galaxy from end to end would be 100,000 light years across..
The Milky Way galaxy is about 100,000 light-years in diameter. Since light travels at a speed of approximately 299,792 kilometers per second, it would take a ray of light about 100,000 years to travel from the sun to the edge of the Milky Way.
The Sun is about 27,000 light years from the center of the Milky Way, roughly 2/3rds the way out from the center to the edge of the galactic disk.
Well, the sun is in the Milky Way...
No, the sun is one of the most important parts of the milky way. If the milky way didn’t have a sun than are universe would not currently be in existenc. The sun would have already exploded if it was not part of the Milky Way .
The Sun is one of billions of stars that comprise the Milky Way. So, in a logically veryimprecise way, you'd have to say that the distance is zero, because the Sun is in it.
