    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milky_Way_(chocolate_bar)

    The Milky Way bar is made of nougat, topped with caramel and covered with milk chocolate. It was created in 1923 by Frank C. Mars and originally manufactured in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The name and taste derived from a then-popular malted milk drink of the day, not after the astronomical galaxy.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milky_Way

    The Milky Way is the galaxy that includes the Solar System, with the name describing the galaxy's appearance from Earth: a hazy band of light seen in the night sky formed from stars that cannot be individually distinguished by the naked eye.

  4. Galactic Center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galactic_Center

    The nature of the Milky Way's bar, which extends across the Galactic Center, is also actively debated, with estimates for its half-length and orientation spanning between 1–5 kpc (short or a long bar) and 10–50°. Certain authors advocate that the Milky Way features two distinct bars, one nestled within the other.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barred_spiral_galaxy

    The Milky Way Galaxy, where the Solar System is located, is classified as a barred spiral galaxy. [5] Edwin Hubble classified spiral galaxies of this type as "SB" (spiral, barred) in his Hubble sequence and arranged them into sub-categories based on how open the arms of the spiral are.

  8. Stellar kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_kinematics

    For example, within the Milky Way, there are three primary components, each with its own distinct stellar kinematics: the disc, halo and bulge or bar. These kinematic groups are closely related to the stellar populations in the Milky Way, forming a strong correlation between the motion and chemical composition, thus indicating different ...

  9. Galaxy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galaxy

    A majority of spiral galaxies, including the Milky Way galaxy, have a linear, bar-shaped band of stars that extends outward to either side of the core, then merges into the spiral arm structure.

  10. Hubble sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble_sequence

    Our own Milky Way is generally classed as Sc or SBc, making it a barred spiral with well-defined arms. Examples of regular spiral galaxies: ( visually ) M31 (Andromeda Galaxy), M74 , M81 , M104 (Sombrero Galaxy), M51a (Whirlpool Galaxy), NGC 300 , NGC 772 .

  11. Sagittarius A* - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sagittarius_A*

    Dusty cloud G2 passes the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. The VLBI radio observations of Sagittarius A* could also be aligned centrally with the NIR images, so the focus of S2's elliptical orbit was found to coincide with the position of Sagittarius A*.
