There are a few dozen nearby galaxies that are circling or migrating toward the Milky Way. However, the remaining galaxies are dispersing.
There are many stars, grains of dust, and gas in the Milky Way. It is known as a spiral galaxy because, from the top or bottom, it would appear to be whirling like a pinwheel. About 25,000 light-years from the galaxy's nucleus, the Sun is situated on one of the spiral arms. The Milky Way's center would take you around 25,000 years to reach, even if you could move at the speed of light (300,000 km/s, or 186,000 mph). A Greek tale about the milk-sprinkling goddess Hera gave rise to the name of the Milky Way. Our galaxy has numerous names in other parts of the earth. It is known as the "Silver River" in China and the "Backbone of Night" in the Kalahari Desert of southern Africa.
