 Appearance
 Size and composition
 Video Shows galaxy
 Structure and
Formation

 The Milky Way has a relatively low surface brightness. Its
visibility can be greatly reduced by background light such
as light pollution or stray light from the moon.
 The light in this band originates from un-resolved stars
and other material that lie within the Galactic plane
3
 The Milky Way contains at least 100 billion
stars and may have up to 400 billion stars.
 The stellar disk of the Milky Way Galaxy is
approximately 100,000 ly (31 kpc) in diameter.

of gas, dust and stars.
 The gas, dust and stars
are organized in
roughly logarithmic
spiral arm structures.
6
 a star in the galactic halo was estimated to
be about 13.2 billion years old.
 About 0.5 billion years less than the age of
the universe. As the oldest known object in
the Milky Way at that time
