Road to Santiago: the Milky Way was traditionally used as a guide by pilgrims traveling to the holy site at Compostela, hence the use of "The Road to Santiago" as a name for the Milky Way. [58]
The Arches Cluster is the densest known star cluster in the Milky Way, about 100 light-years from its center in the constellation Sagittarius (The Archer), 25,000 light-years from Earth. Its discovery was reported by Nagata et al. in 1995, [ 1 ] and independently by Cotera et al. in 1996. [ 2 ]
center – the study of the central region of the Milky Way; disk – the study of the Milky Way disk (the plane upon which most galactic objects are aligned) evolution – the evolution of the Milky Way; formation – the formation of the Milky Way; fundamental parameters – the fundamental parameters of the Milky Way (mass, size etc.)
It is a result of a merger event between the Milky Way and a massive dwarf galaxy [3] More energetic stars migrate outwards from the inner galaxy to form a thick disk at larger radii [11] [12] The disk forms thick at high redshift with the thin disk forming later [13] [14] Disk flaring combined with inside-out disk formation [15] [16]

Milky Way subgroup: 840,500 pc 2.59×10 19: The Milky Way and those satellite dwarf galaxies gravitationally bound to it. Examples include the Sagittarius Dwarf, the Ursa Minor Dwarf and the Canis Major Dwarf. Cited distance is the orbital diameter of the Leo T Dwarf galaxy, the most distant galaxy in the Milky Way subgroup. Currently 59 ...
