The Earth is orbiting around the Sun, which itself is orbiting around the center of the Milky Way. Our Milky Way, the Galaxy, is the only galaxy in which we are able to study astrophysical processes in detail. Therefore, our journey through extragalactic astronomy will begin in our home Galaxy, with which we first need to become familiar before we are ...

The physical conditions in the interstellar medium of the Milky Way are briefly reviewed. It is noted that the local interstellar medium shows relatively uniform abundances and dust/gas ratios; in fact recent measurements of the 12C/13C ratio indicate that the gas is homogeneous to better than 15%.

We have been treating stars as though they were isolated objects in the sky, unrelated to anything else in the universe. Actually they are members of groups that ultimately influence the history and evolution of these same stars in various ways. Every star has neighbors all around it in the sky as though it belonged to some vast ensemble of stars that ...

The Milky Way and Other Galaxies
2018In Chap. 6 we learned about the stars and that all individual stars we see are contained in our home galaxy, the Milky Way. It has been estimated that 80% of the people who live in North America cannot see the Milky Way due to light pollution. At sea the opportunity to view the Milky Way in all its glory is a real possibility, depending on the time of ...
