Upcoming Galaxy Map Could Radically Transform How We See the Milky WayShannon Hall
Photography of the Milky Way can be challenging to perfect. But you don’t need expensivegear to capture the celestial beauty of our galaxy. These software tools for capturing the Milky Way will help bring the most out of your shots of the sky at night!
has released a captivating interactive map of the Milky Way using Planck's data. It combines multiple views of our galaxy, including mapping dust, carbon monoxide gas, magnetic fields and a type of radiation known as "free-free." This kind of radiation happens when "isolated electrons...
Harvard University scientists reported Tuesday that this massive structure has been hiding out in the Milky Way galaxy's spiral arm closest to Earth. The researchers were building a 3-D map of our galaxy's interstellar matter, using a star census gathered by Europe's Gaia spacecraft when they...
The best 3D map yet of the center of the Milky Way galaxy has revealed a tasty surprise: the heart of our galaxy looks like a cosmic peanut. Two international teams of astronomers discovered the nut-shaped nature of the Milky Way's core, which is known as the galactic bulge and packed ...
map trace the spiral arms of the Milky Way Galaxy. The vertical structure in the middle of the map is the centre of the Galaxy. The emission stretching from the upper left to the lower right in the middle portion of the map is the “molecular ring,” a ring of gas and dust in ...
The Milky Way galaxy is our home in space. It is a vast galaxy of 400 billion stars, at least that many planets and a supermassive black hole at the center.

You can check out an interactive version of the new map below. The differently colored blobs represent different basins of attraction (light yellow is the Shapley Concentration, blue is Laniākea and red is the Sloan Great Wall). The Milky Way i...
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
