A Huge Hidden Galactic Structure Found In The Zone of Avoidance Behind Milky Way.
If you ever happened to go out during the night, far from the city lights, you might have seen the Milky Way.
It’s something incredible, to be seen at least once in your lifetime!
This is how it looks like from the Atacama Desert.
What we really observe is the internal part of our galaxy.
The solar system is rotating around the center, also called “bulge” of the galaxy, along with millions of other stars, and when we look at the Milky way in the sky we are actually looking towards more central regions in the disk.
The term ‘bulge’ is used to describe the dense spheroidal swarm of stars often found in the centres of spiral and S0 galaxies. The bulge of the Milky Way appears to be fairly typical – a slightly flattened sphere of radius ~6,500 light years – while bulge sizes in other galaxies vary from several hundred to several tens of thousands of light years, depending on the type and size of the galaxy.
