What Galaxy is the Earth In? - Universe Today [Search domain www.universetoday.com/65343/what-galaxy-is-the-earth-in/] https://www.universetoday.com/65343/what-galaxy-is-the-earth-in/ The Earth is located in the Solar System, and the Solar System is located about 25,000 light-years away from the core of the galaxy. This also means that we're about 25,000 light-years away from the outer edge of the Milky Way. We're located in the Orion Spur, which is a minor arm located in between the two major galactic arms.

The numbers are pretty astounding. NASA estimates the galaxy at 100,000 light-years across. Since one light year is about 9.5 x 10 12 km, so the diameter of the Milky Way galaxy is about 9.5 x 10 17 km in diameter. The thickness of the galaxy ranges depending on how close you are to the center,...

Our Solar System is located in the middle of this galactic disk. And by the middle, I mean the center of the galaxy is about 27,000 light years that way, and the edge of the galaxy is about the same distance that way. Our Milky Way is but one galaxy in a larger collection of galaxies known as the Local Group.

For those into math today 25,000 plus 27000 equated 52000 times 2 for diameter makes 104,000 light years.. in yet 100,000 is what they say in yet what difference does 4000 light years make?  Humor memory wise I remember when earth was reported 6000 light years away from a massive black hole.

Galactic Center

The Galactic Center is the rotational center of the Milky Way. The estimates for its location range from from Earth in the direction of the constellations Sagittarius, Ophiuchus, and Scorpius where the Milky Way appears brightest. It coincides with the compact radio source Sagittarius A.

The Galactic Center, or Galactic Centre, is the rotational center of the Milky Way. It is 8,122 ± 31 parsecs (26,490 ± 100 ly) away from Earth in the direction of the constellations Sagittarius, Ophiuchus, and Scorpius where the Milky Way appears brightest. It coincides with the compact radio source Sagittarius A*.
