The edge of the Milky Way Galaxy is approximately 100,000 light-years away from Earth. Since one light-year is about 9.46 trillion meters, this translates to roughly 946 trillion kilometers, or about 946,000,000,000,000 meters. Therefore, the distance from Earth to the edge of the Milky Way is around 100,000 light-years, equivalent to about 946 trillion meters.

What do the astrologers call our galaxy?
We (the carbon units who inhabit the Earth) have named our galaxy the "Milky Way". If there's anybody else out there, we have no idea what they call our galaxy, or whether they care.
Where is the earth positioned in the universe?
The Earth is located in the Milky Way galaxy, in a spiral arm called the Orion Arm. Our solar system is about 25,000 light-years from the galactic center, and the Milky Way is just one of billions of galaxies in the observable universe.
How long would it take a ray of light to travel from the sun to the edge of our galaxy the milky way?
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.
Is our solar system located outside the Milky Way Galaxy?
No. Our solar system is part of the MIlky Way galaxy. It's just kind of on an outer edge, and the galaxy is immense (like 100 billion stars or so), so we can still see the rest of it, even though we're part of it.
How far to the edge of your Milky Way?
The Milky Way galaxy is approximately 100,000 light-years in diameter. Its edge, or the outer limits of its disk, is around 50,000 light-years from the center. However, the galaxy also extends into a halo of dark matter and stars that can stretch much farther, making the total extent more complex to define. Thus, depending on the context, the distance to the "edge" can vary significantly.
What galaxy do earth belongs?
The earth exists on the edge of the Milky Way galaxy.
What is the shape of the galaxy you live on?
The shape of the Milky Way (our galaxy) is the shape of a spiral.
Distance from sun to Milky Way galaxy?
the answer is zero the sun is in the milky way... HELLO....
Is the solar system about halfway between the center of the Milky Way galaxy and its outer edge?
The solar system is the Milky Way galaxy, Earth, and all other planets and galaxies are the solar system.
If the Sun and Earth were at the edge of the disk of the Milky Way Galaxy what would be the diameter of the galaxy in light years?
The diameter of the Milky Way galaxy is about 100,000 light-years. If the Sun and Earth were at the edge of the disk, we would still be within the galaxy's boundaries, so the diameter would remain around 100,000 light-years.

Is the solar system in a the Milky Way?
Yes.The Milky Way is the edge of the galaxy in which we all live. Hence, this solar system resides in the Milky Way galaxy. Additionally, other stars in this galaxy have planets, and thus are their own solar systems.
Where is the location of the solar system?
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.
