Where are the Population One and Population Two stars located in the Milky Way Galaxy?
LooneyTunerIan
Population I stars (metal-rich stars) are common in the Milky Way's spiral arms; Population II stars are more common in the galactic halo.For more details, you may want to read the Wikipedia article on "Metallicity". Note that in astronomy, "metal" is an informal name for elements other than hydrogen and helium. This usage is quite different from the usage in chemistry.
