The Large Sagittarius Star Cloud is the brightest visible region of the Milky Way galaxy, a portion of the central bulge seen around the thick dust of the Great Rift which lines the northwest edge. It should not be confused with the nearby Small Sagittarius Star Cloud , which lies about 10° to the north. [ 1 ]
HD 166191 is a young late-F or early G-type star in the constellation Sagittarius. It is surrounded by a large amount of dust. [2] [6] In 2019 it was reported in the Astronomer's Telegram that the star had brightened in the infrared, as was seen from Spitzer observations. [7] A study was published in 2022, reporting on the result of a follow-up ...
Sagittarius contains two well-known star clouds, both considered fine binocular objects. The Large Sagittarius Star Cloud is the brightest visible region of the Milky Way. It is a portion of the central bulge of the galaxy seen around the thick dust of the Great Rift , and is the innermost galactic structure that can be observed in visible ...
Baade's Window on the Milky Way. Baade's Window is an area of the sky with relatively low amounts of interstellar dust along the line of sight from Earth.This area is considered an observational "window" as the normally obscured Galactic Center of the Milky Way is visible in this direction.
Sagittarius Star Cloud can refer to either: Large Sagittarius Star Cloud; Small Sagittarius Star Cloud This page was last edited on 25 ...
The Bayer designation Chi Sagittarii (χ Sagittarii) is shared by three star systems in the zodiac constellation of Sagittarius. The brightest of these, χ 1 Sagittarii and χ 3 Sagittarii, are separated by 0.56° on the sky. The dimmer star χ 2 Sagittarii is located between them, 0.10° from χ 1, and is too faint
NGC 6520 is an open cluster of stars in the southern constellation of Sagittarius, [5] about 4° to the east of the Galactic Center. [3] With an apparent visual magnitude of 7.6 and an angular size of 6.0′, it can be viewed with binoculars or a small telescope.
Chi 1 Sagittarii (χ 1 Sagittarii) is a binary star [6] system in the zodiac constellation of Sagittarius. The pair have a combined apparent visual magnitude of +5.03, [2] which is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 12.95 mas as seen from Earth, [1] it is located around 252 light years from the Sun.
