Milky Way Galaxy

Earth and Neptune are both in the Milky Way, so on that basis, the Milky Way is zero distance from us. What we sometimes call the Milky Way is a hazy area going through the night sky. That is much further away than Neptune is.

There were originally 9 planets in our solar system, but now there are only 8 because Pluto is not considered a planet.

In the whole of theMilky Way Galaxythere are probably billions of planets.

The Milky Way is approximately 100,000 light years across.

The value may differ according to sources because the Milky Way does not have a defining boundary.

The Milky Way galaxy is a spiral galaxy with a central bulge, a disk made up of arms of gas, dust, and stars, and a halo of globular clusters. The central bulge contains older stars, while the disk is where younger stars are formed. The galaxy is surrounded by a halo of dark matter that extends beyond the visible components.

the milky way is a galaxy, there are billions of stars in the milky way galaxy

I have just worked this out and the width of the Milkyway is 590,000,000,000,000,000 miles 0r 590 million billion miles 0r 590,000 trillion miles or just over half a billion billion miles =59x10-17

The numbers of stars and their distances depended to some extent on their direction.

This helped William Herschel to work out a model for the shape or the Milky Way

Galaxy.

In fact the shape he described is not too far from our modern ideas. Unfortunately he was limited by the knowledge and technology of his time. He decided, wrongly, that the Sun must be near the centre of the Galaxy.

The Milky Way Galaxy does not have a specific color since it is a collection of billions of stars, gas, and dust that emit light at different wavelengths. However, if we were able to see it from afar, it would appear as a faint white or yellowish band across the night sky due to the combined light of its stars.

You can see the Milky Way in the night sky when you are in a location with very little light pollution, usually away from cities and urban areas. The best times to see the Milky Way are during the summer months when it is high in the sky and the nights are warmer.

Empty space , maybe dark matter and dark energy. Then there are other galaxies (about 100 billion of them that we could see if we looked). A galaxy that is close to ours is Andromeda which may be similar in shape to the Milky Way (some recent research claims that the Milky was is not a spiral galaxy at all but a barred elliptical galaxy). Andromeda is about 2 million light years away.

The largest planet in the Milky Way galaxy is Jupiter. It is a gas giant with a mass more than 300 times that of Earth and is known for its Great Red Spot, a swirling storm that has been observed for centuries.

Yes, the sun is a star located in the Milky Way galaxy. It is one of billions of stars in our galaxy, which is a spiral galaxy that spans about 100,000 light-years in diameter.

The section of the night sky where you view the milky way galaxy edge on. There are so many stars in this part of the night sky that it look like a path of spilled milk - therefore it is called the milky way., The Milky Way is the galaxy in which the solar system is located. It is a barred spiral galaxy that is part of the local group of galaxies. It is one of billions of galaxies in the observable universe.

The Milky Way galaxy contains billions of stars, including our sun, as well as various celestial objects such as planets, asteroids, and comets. It spans a diameter of about 100,000 light-years and is estimated to have between 100 to 400 billion stars.

The Milky Way is approximately 100,000 light-years in diameter. This means that if you could travel at the speed of light, it would take you 100,000 years to cross from one side of the galaxy to the other.

Stars generate light through nuclear fusion in their cores. This process involves converting hydrogen into helium, which releases energy in the form of light and heat. The intense pressure and temperature within a star's core allows this fusion process to occur.

The biggest star in the Milky Way is currently believed to be UY Scuti, a red supergiant star located in the constellation Scutum. It is estimated to be over 1,700 times larger than the Sun in terms of volume.

A typical galaxy may have anywhere between a few million (106) stars, and over a trillion (1012) stars. Our own Milky Way is estimated to have between 200 and 400 billion (2x1011-4x1011) stars.

The aphelionis the point in the orbit of a planet or comet where it is farthest from the Sun. The Earth reaches its aphelion when the Northern Hemisphere is experiencing summer. The point in orbit where a planet or comet is nearest to the sun is called the perihelion. The word aphelionderives from the Greekwords, apomeaning away, off, apart and Helios(the Greek god of the sun). Earth's aphelion usually occurs sometime around July 4.

The distance from Earth to the center of the Milky Way is approximately 25,000 light-years.

If the Milky Way were a quasar, it would be incredibly bright and emit vast amounts of energy due to the supermassive black hole at its center consuming huge amounts of matter. The high energy output would impact the surrounding galaxies and alter the dynamics of the entire universe.

Likely the two galaxies would become one. Though there is some speculation in all likelyhood some stars would be lost in the process.

Incedentally in 3-5 billion years the galaxy Andromeda may collide with the milky way and it is about that size (a little smaller). In all likelyhood whan that happens our star will probably be lost fly out into the universe or into another dwarf galaxy.

Whatever happens the two galaxies would take a different course through the universe depending on how much mass the colliding galaxy has. (if it is Andromeda it is likely that we will continue on the course that we are on now)

We can calculate the mass of the Milky Way by analyzing our solar system's orbit around the center of the Milky Way. The only problem is, that orbit takes about 220 million years to complete, and human beings have been observing it for less than 200. So our calculations could be - probably are! - way off.
