Our galaxy, the Milky Way, formed from a vast cloud of gas and dust in the early universe, around 13.6 billion years ago. Gravitational forces caused this material to collapse and coalesce, leading to the formation of stars and clusters. Over time, these stars and clusters merged, creating a spiral structure and a complex system of stars, planets, and other celestial bodies. Continuous interactions and mergers with smaller galaxies have since shaped its current form.
