NO!!! The Sun and its Solar Sytam are located in one of the 'tails' of the Milky Way Galaxy.
The Milky Way Galaxy it like a giant Catherine Wheel, with a bright core and two curved tails. The whole of which is rotating. We are in one of those curved tails.
The Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy are the two giants in our local group. These two galaxies will collide, but neither one can be said to orbit the other. In some instances smaller galaxies might "orbit" a giant cluster, with periods measured in billions of years. Galaxies in general do not orbit anything. Instead they are all simply spreading further and further apart as the universe expands.
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.
Milky Way looks like a river from earth. In Hindu mythology thus it is called akasganga.
Astronomers have found evidence that there is a large black hole at the center of our galaxy. Some theories make it possible that there are smaller black holes here or there, but I'm not aware that any have been detected.
Yes. Roughly 5% of the stars in ht Milky Way are larger than out sun, which works our to a total of about 10 billion stars. The sun only appears bigger than other stars because it is much closer to us than any other star.
The Milky Way is the center of the visible universe, as the boundary where matter travels away from the observer faster than light is at a constant distance in all directions. The universe beyond this point is unobservable, as the spacetime is moving away faster than light.
The stars in the Milky Way move in the opposite direction of the sun.
To know that we would need to know the mass of all objects in the Galaxy. To date, we are unable to determine that - partly because of limitations in technology but mainly because about a third of the Galaxy is shadowed by the central core and is thus unobservable.
Our whole solar system, all the planets and everything, are part of the Milky Way galaxy. So, asking how far doesn't really make sense, because Neptune is in the Milky Way.
I live in one of many rooms, in one of many houses, on one of many streets, in one of
many suburbs, of one of many cities, in one of many states, in one of many countries,
on one of several continents, on the surface of one of several stones, in orbit around
one of possibly as many as 400,000,000,000 stars in the Milky Way.
(We recently learned that the Milky Way is one of several billion galaxies in our universe,
and it's now being suggested by Physicists and Cosmologists that our universe could be
only one of many.
A lot of people who are just as small as I am, and some who I suspect are even smaller,
are locked in fierce ideological debate over how all of this came to be. I haven't heard
too many of them express their gratitude that it did.)
There is only one Sun. Sun is the name of the star that is closest to Earth. While light from all stars eventually reaches Earth, the Sun's light is the only one close enough to generate heat.
