The whole Solar System orbits the galactic core, the supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* at the center of Milky way galaxy and our solar system takes about 225-250 million Earth years to revolve once around the galaxy's center which is known as a galactic year. The sun is approximately 20.5 galactic years old. | Free AstroScience

A journey to the center of the Milky Way reveals powerful streams of million-degree gas, dangerous flares bursting from the supermassive black hole at the galactic core and swarms of black holes that could threaten Earth's existence. #HowTheUniverseWorks | Science Channel

NEW • Galactic Center Visualization Delivers Star Power in 𝟑𝟔𝟎° 21.3.2019 VIDEO: A new immersive, 360-degree, ultra-high-definition visualization allows viewers to view the center of our Galaxy as if they were sitting in the position of the Milky Way’s supermassive black hole (Sgr A*). By combining supercomputer simulations with Chandra data, the visualization shows the effects of dozens of massive stellar giants with fierce winds blowing off their surfaces in the region covering a few light

Mantovanini & the GLEAM team; Visible: Axel Mellinger (milkywaysky.com) https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap251118.html Explanation: What does the Milky Way look like in radio waves? To better find out, GLEAM surveyed the central band of our galaxy in high resolution radio light as imaged by the Murchison Widefield Array in Australia. As the featured video slowly scrolls, radio light (71 - 231 MHz) is seen on the left
