Astronomers have created the most detailed infrared map of the Milky Way ever released. NGC 3603 and NGC 3576 are 22,000 and 9,000 lightyears away from us, respectively. Inside these extended clouds of dust and gas, new stars are born, gradually changing the shapes of the nebulas via inte...
As I read the manuscript, I was greatly impressed by the dedication and zeal of the two astronomers in charting out the Milky Way. They had thereby initiated the exploration of the large-scale structure of the Universe. All this brought to my mind two quotations from Plato. I repeated ...
This dust forms the building blocks of stars, planets, and, ultimately, life as we know it. The central engine of the Milky Way drives this process. That means a clearer picture of dust and magnetic interactions builds a better understanding of the Milky Way and our place within it. The...
Astronomers have created a 3D map of our entire galaxy, pinpointing stars called Cepheids which pulsate and can be used to track distance and changes in space. When put into a map, the data showed how the Milky Way is warped. The disk of the Milky Way is

Spiral arms are the major regions of star formation in spiral galaxies and this is where most of the major nebulae are found. The Shape of the Milky Way - The EvidenceThere are two methods traditionally used to map the spiral structure of our Galaxy. The first method is to study the ...
The detailed map offers a new perspective on the structure of the Milky Way, enriching our understanding of its composition and the processes occurring within it. Led by astrophysicist Dante Minniti, the project has transformed the way astronomers view the Milky Way. The new map, which contains...
I.阅读理解Astronomers have created the most correct map yet of the Milky Way-the part of space that contains our sun,solar system and more than 100 billion stars. Researchers made the three-dimensional map by measuring the distance from the sun to thousands of big, brightly shining stars.They...
High-resolution surveys chart the spiral structure of the galaxy and the location of our solar system
Models of the Milky Way were compared using star formation events. The oldest stars shown in red are 400 million years old, and the youngest in blue are 30 million years old. A top-down view of the Milky Way was simulated on the left and created using new observations on the right. J...
