milky way and it has a circular shape
The shape of the Milky Way (our galaxy) is the shape of a spiral.
It's shape I guess
Both the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxies are flat spirals in shape.
Both the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxies are flat spirals in shape.
The Milky Way is a spiral galaxy, so it slightly resembles a spiraled disk. Nevertheless, it is impossible to assign an exact shape to a dynamic celestial object.
The Milky Way is a spiral galaxy with a defined shape and structure, while irregular galaxies lack a symmetrical shape or structure. Irregular galaxies may have no distinct pattern, such as arms or a central bulge, unlike the Milky Way. Irregular galaxies also tend to have higher rates of star formation compared to spiral galaxies like the Milky Way.
No - because we're inside it.
Scientists believe the Milky Way has a barred spiral shape, featuring a central bulge surrounded by spiral arms that extend outward. Estimates suggest that the Milky Way is about 100,000 light-years in diameter. The galaxy's structure is dynamic, with ongoing research refining our understanding of its shape and dimensions.
