The galactic center of the Milky Way lies in the constellation?
Sagittarius
Where is the center of the milky way located?
In the constellation of Sagittarius.
In what constellation is the center of the galaxy?
Not "the" quasar, but "a" quasar - there are many. A quasar is associated with a supermassive black hole, and those are generally at the center of galaxies.
What are the coordinates of Sagittarius constellation?
The Sagittarius constellation is located in the southern sky, and its approximate coordinates are: Right Ascension: 18h 00m Declination: -30° (negative, indicating it’s south of the celestial equator) Sagittarius is a prominent constellation that contains the Galactic Center of our Milky Way, and is best visible during the summer months in the Northern Hemisphere.
What constellation is the archer?
sagittarius is the constellation of Archery
Is Sagittarius part of another constellation?
No- Sagittarius IS a constellation.
How many light years away from earth is galactic center?
The galactic center, where the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* is located, is approximately 26,000 light-years away from Earth. This region lies in the constellation Sagittarius and is surrounded by dense clouds of gas and dust that obstruct visible light observations.
Where is most of the of the Milky Way located?
The galactic center is in the general direction of Sagittarius. Is that what you were asking?
Where is the center of our galaxy?
The center of our galaxy is at a distance that is estimated to be between 25,000 and 28,000 light-years. As to the direction, it is in the constellation Sagittarius. If you want coordinates, the Wikipedia lists the following (article: galactic center): "In the Equatorial coordinate system they are: RA 17h45m40.04s, Dec -29° 00' 28.1" (J2000 epoch)."
What season is the earth closest to the galactic center?
What an interesting question, what made you think of it? Well lets see if I can answer it for you. The constellation of Orion (the hunter) is a winter constellation (i.e. you can only see it in winter when the earth is on the same side of the sun to where Orion is. Now if you look at the link I will place below, you will see that the spiral arm of our galaxy in which the Orion constellation is to be found is called the 'local spur' and this is outside the orbit that the sun makes round the galactic center. This means that in winter the sun would be between the earth and the galactic center. Thus the answer to your question is that the season when Earth is closest to the galactic center is Northern Hemisphere Summer. The galactic center is to be found in the constellation of Sagittarius (Sagittarius A). This is the same time the earth is 5 million miles further away from the sun. Is it perhaps the gravity of the galaxy that is pulling on our earths orbit as well, making it slightly elliptic? One can not argue that the gravity of the galaxy is not keeping the solar system and all the othe stars in orbit around it! I would like to calculate what that gravitational force must be to balance the solar systems centripetal force acting to fling it outward.
Sagittarius the star?
Sagittarius is a constellation not a star XD
How much mass does the galactic center have?
The mass of the galactic center, specifically the supermassive black hole known as Sagittarius A*, is estimated to be about 4.1 million times the mass of the Sun. This mass is concentrated within a region only a few million kilometers across. In addition to Sagittarius A*, the overall mass of the galactic center includes stars, gas, and dark matter, contributing to the complex dynamics of the Milky Way's core.
