The Milky Way : A Guide

The Milky Way is the galaxy that contains our Solar System. The descriptive "milky" is derived from the appearance from Earth of the galaxy - a band of light seen in the night sky formed from stars that cannot be individually distinguished by the naked eye. The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy with a diameter between 100,000 and 180,000 light-years. The Milky Way is estimated to contain 100-400 billion stars. There are probably at least 100 billion planets in the Milky Way. This book provides its readers with complete details of the Milky Way.
