The Milky Way, parts of which we can see from Earth curving around us.
Our Solar System belongs to a group of stars that are clustered together in the Milky Way
The milky way galaxy is roughly a disc shape the is around 1000 lightyears thick on average and 100,000 lightyears in diameter. Our solar system sits roughly 26,500 light years from the centre.
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.
if the Milky way galaxy has roughly 100 billion stars in it like scientist believe. and the odds of this happning are one in one million. when you do all the math it works out to be 10000 earths in our solar system. but that's only if there really is one earth in a million stars. its almost impossible to know for certain
The Milky Way, parts of which we can see from Earth curving around us.
Very, very, very small. The Milky way is about 100 000 light years in diameter, the Solar system is about 10 light hours in diameter. The diameter of the Galaxy is thus about 90 000 000 (ninety million) times bigger than the diameter of the Solar system.
When compared to the diameter of the Milky Way galaxy,the diameter of our solar system is very nearly zero.
Considering the Solar System is part of the Milky Way Galaxy, that might give you a clue. The Solar System is about 4 light years in diameter, depending on how you measure it. The Milky Way is 100,000 light years in diameter.
The galaxy that contains Earth and the rest of the Solar system is the Milky Way galaxy.
The Milky Way is millions of times larger than the sun, and the sun is bigger than the earth hundredfold. Therefore, The Milky Way is by far the biggest.
None, actually; reach down and touch the Earth, and you are touching part of the Milky Way. We are part of the Milky Way.
The ratio of the diameter (of the milky way) to what??
Our Solar System belongs to a group of stars that are clustered together in the Milky Way
Yes. Our solar system is definitely in the Milky Way.
The milky way is about 100,000 light years in diameter, and the Solar System is 25,000 light years away from the galactic center.
The solar system (the planets, the earth and the sun) is a part of the milky way, and rotates with the other stars the milky way consists of. The milky way is therefore not going to collide with the earth.
