In essentially every possible way.
Constellations are specifically defined areas of sky; Centaurus is one such, as seen from the planet Earth. The Milky Way is a galaxy. The two are, at best, extremely loosely related.
The constellation Centaurus is not similar to the Milky Way galaxy. Centaurus is a constellation visible from Earth, consisting of stars that appear to form a pattern as seen from our perspective. The Milky Way, on the other hand, is a spiral galaxy that contains billions of stars, including our solar system. The Milky Way is much larger and more complex than the constellation Centaurus.
They are not. The Milky Way is a galaxy, the constellation Centaurus is just a man made visual representation of something, and bears no relation to a physical entity.
we are in the milky way Galaxy! the Centaurus arm is just a small part of the milky way.
they are different because one is a large collection of stars orbiting a super massive black hole
The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy that contains our solar system, while Centaurus is a constellation in the southern sky. The Milky Way is a vast collection of stars, gas, dust, and dark matter, while Centaurus is a grouping of stars in the night sky as seen from Earth. The Milky Way is a physical entity in space, while Centaurus is a visual grouping of stars from our perspective on Earth.
galaxy well... the milky way itself is a constellation but we live in what we call the milky way galaxy.,
The Milky Way is the plane of our galaxy NOT a constellation. We can see it because we are part of it.
There is no larger rotational group for galaxies. The Milky Way galaxy and the Andromeda Galaxy, as part of the Local Group, are moving generally in one direction, toward an unidentified central mass in the direction of the constellation Centaurus. (This may be a gravitational effect of the Shapley Supercluster.)
The constellation norma is a L shaped constellation in the sky. It runs throught the milky way The constellation norma is a L shaped constellation in the sky. It runs throught the milky way
The milky way is not a constellation
No, the Milky Way is a galaxy. It's the one we live in.
Yes. All constellations are in the Milky Way. Note that the Andromeda constellation is not to be confused with the Andromeda Galaxy.
