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 ...
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 wavelengths.
Both features are viewed against the dense stary background of the Large Sagittarius Star Cloud. [6] This cluster is located at a distance of approximately 5,235 ly from the Sun. [1] This is a young open cluster of stars with age estimates yielding a values of 150 to 190 million years. [3]

The Great Rift covers one third of the Milky Way, and is flanked by strips of numerous stars, such as the Cygnus Star Cloud. [2] West of the Cepheus Clouds, the Funnel cloud/Le Gentil 3 and the bordering North America Nebula, the Great Rift starts with the Northern Coalsack at the constellation of Cygnus, where it is known as the Cygnus Rift.

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.
