Note that the Milky Way is not the only galaxy out there; it’s actually part of a large bunch of galaxies known as the Local Group. This Group consists of nearly 30 members; ours is the second-largest galaxy, followed by the Triangulum Galaxy (also known as M33). The largest member ...
“A friend once told me he wanted to migrate to Canberra just to get photos of the Milky Way galaxy,” he says. “And while it’s not very cold, the sky is dark and clear, so it’s perfect for photography.” Because of our high altitude, low night-ti...
