How long would it take for a human to leave the milky way from earth?
Leaving the Milky Way Galaxy would take an incredibly long time with current technology. The nearest galaxy, Andromeda, is about 2.537 million light-years away, while the Milky Way itself is roughly 100,000 light-years in diameter. Even with the fastest spacecraft we have today, traveling at about 17 kilometers per second, it would take over 100,000 years to travel just one light-year. Thus, traversing the entire Milky Way is beyond our current capabilities and would require many millennia.
How many light years from the milky galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy?
The Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy are approximately 2.5 million light-years apart. This makes Andromeda the closest spiral galaxy to our own Milky Way. Both galaxies are part of the Local Group of galaxies.
What distance is the milky way galaxy from the sun?
The sun is one of the many stars in the milky way - our galaxy. Sol, our Suns name is about 25 light years from the center of the Milky Way.
How many miles is the Milky Way from earth?
None, actually; reach down and touch the Earth, and you are touching part of the Milky Way. We are part of the Milky Way.
How many lightyears are in the Milky Way?
The Milky Way galaxy is approximately 100,000 light-years in diameter. Its vast expanse contains billions of stars, along with various celestial objects and structures. The galaxy's size can vary slightly in different studies, but 100,000 light-years is a commonly accepted estimate.
How many years does it take to travel through MILKY WAY?
It would take approximately 100,000 years to travel from one end of the Milky Way to the other at the speed of light, which is about 186,282 miles per second. However, with current technology, it would take much longer to traverse the Milky Way.
Is there anything further than the Milky Way?
Yes. The Milky Way is a galaxy, and it is huge, with a diameter of about 100,000 light-years. That means it will take light 100,000 years to go from one end to the other. Such vastness staggers the imagination. And yet, other galaxies - many of them quite similar to the Milky Way - are known to be at a distance of millions or even billions of light-years from us.
How many days would it take to get to the milky way?
We are in the Milky Way galaxy.
How many milky way galaxies end on end to the edge of the universe?
If the milky way galaxy is 100,000 light years across and if the universe is 13 billion years old, you would have 130,000 milky way galaxies, end on end to the edge of the universe.
How many light years is the Milky Way across?
100,000 ly across but only about 1000 ly thick.
How many light years is mars from the edge of the milky way?
Same as Earth. The distance from Earth to Mars is insignificant in comparison to the distance scales in the Milky Way. - About 20,000 light-years.
How many lightyears is it from the milky way to Andromeda?
Estimated at about 2.5 million light-years.
How many light years from the milky galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy?
The Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda galaxy are approximately 2.5 million light-years apart. This makes Andromeda the closest spiral galaxy to our own Milky Way. Both galaxies are part of the Local Group of galaxies.
Is the Vega star in the milky way?
Yes it is. All the stars that we can see are in the Milky Way galaxy. Stars in other galaxies are too far away from us to be able to see them properly. That is even true of many stars in the Milky Way Galaxy.
Are there nebulas in the milky way?
A supernova is a star which has effectively exploded. There have been many in our galaxy which we call the Milky Way. There have also been supernovas in other galaxies too.
How many calories in Milky Way cheesecake?
I don't know how to quantify it in calories, but if you're asking how big the Milky Way is, it's approximately 100,000 light-years in diameters. Imagine what that would do for your waistline...I'd still say go for it though.
Other stars that are less than sixteen light years from the Milky Way?
There are many but a couple famous are Wolf 359, G51-15, and 61 Cygni. Go to this website to figure out more info http://www.scienceinschool.org/2006/issue2/exoplanet/ Any star less than sixteen light years from the Milky Way Galaxy would be considered within the Milky Way Galaxy. Our sun is one of the 200 to 400 billion stars in our galaxy. If you were curious about stars less than 16 light years from our solar system, the above answer is good.
