The Milky Way Galaxy Planets
The Milky Way Galaxy Planets
Our massive fortified galaxy, the Milky Way, is illuminated by the massive explosion of a huge organization of nearly 300 billion bright, shining stars, with their own planetary orbits - and it is inhabited by huge clouds of dust and gas floating around the space between the dancing stars.
Astronomers have long known that our Milky Way galaxy and its closest counterpart, the Andromeda galaxy, are two large and, therefore, large members of a small galactic group - aptly named the "Space Group", which may be as many as a million. -3 years of light across. Astronomers, however, know very little about what lies just beyond our Galactic neighbor. On March 12, 2014, a new paper was published in the "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society", giving a much broader picture of what is just around the vicinity of our Galaxy - within the surrounding galaxies known as "The Council of Giants."
