Most of you like milky, weak coffee.

We live in a galaxy, the Milky Way Galaxy.

Our own Milky Way Galaxy is rich in this kind of planets.

There are about a hundred billion stars in the Milky Way Galaxy.

Night shots are beautiful, piercing the Big Dipper and the Milky Way.

The solar system is a small celestial system in the Milky Way.

If we want humanity to last forever, we have to colonize the Milky Way.

We are residents of one small planet in a corner of the Milky Way galaxy.

And this is a wide field picture taken of the center of the Milky Way.

For centuries, astronomers believed that the Milky Way made up the entire universe. Hubble was among the first to show that the fuzzy patches in the sky seen through telescopes were other galaxies, not distant parts of the Milky Way.

And if one were to eclipse the Milky Way, this is what it would look like.

We think that there are about 10 million dead stars in the Milky Way alone, our galaxy.

Then he says to himself, very quietly, Turbulent the sea, Stretching across to Sado The Milky Way .

And here's a beautiful picture of the Andromeda Nebula, which is our closest, largest spiral galaxy to the Milky Way.

But you will never, ever say to someone who asks you what you want that I want a milky, weak coffee.

Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson were using the horn antenna at Bell's Holmdel laboratory to study the Milky Way with extraordinary precision.

So, we can even put a number to how many of those planets now do we expect our own Milky Way Galaxy harbors.

All of the ones we've found, by the way, are in this little, teeny, tiny corner where we live, in the Milky Way. There must be millions of planets in the Milky Way, and as Carl Sagan insisted for many years, and was laughed at for it, there must be billions and billions in the universe.

This revelation indicates that the formation of planets may be relatively common both in the Milky Way and in other parts of the universe.

We would see a shadow of that black hole against the hundred billion stars in the Milky Way Galaxy and its luminous dust lanes.

In June 1994, two scientists using the HST discovered disks of protoplanetary dust around stars in the Orion Nebula region of the Milky Way galaxy.

Every one of these little blobs is a galaxy roughly the size of our Milky Way a hundred billion stars in each of those blobs.

Scientists believe, for example, that the interactions of cosmic ray particles with gas between the stars produce diffuse gamma ray emissions from our Milky Way galaxy.

And then beyond Salcantay, of course, when the southern cross reaches the southernmost point in the sky, directly in that same alignment, the Milky Way overhead.

In fact, the head of Harvard's observatory back then gave a great debate in which he argued that the Milky Way Galaxy was the entire universe.

We see black holes at the heart of our galaxy, in the Milky Way, and elsewhere in the universe, where time itself seems to stand still.

These huge explosions come from all directions, suggesting a cosmological cause until this discovery it was believed that the bursts were limited to within the Milky Way galaxy.

The universe was created 13.7 billion years ago, and then you created all the stars, and all the planets, and all the galaxies, and all the Milky Ways.

If we're going to look for these stealth black holes at the center of galaxies, the best place to look is in our own galaxy, our Milky Way.

Whether we're born in San Francisco, or Sudan, or close to the heart of the Milky Way galaxy, we are the products of a billion year lineage of wandering stardust.

There's the galaxy in the middle, which is the Milky Way, and around that are the Hubble you know, nearby kind of galaxies, and there's a sphere that marks the different times.

This has contributed to determining the correlation length of X ray emitting clusters of galaxies, the distribution of galaxies in the southern hemisphere and the mapping of large scale structures behind the Milky Way.

The sacred river, the Urubamba, or the Vilcanota, which is itself the Earthly equivalent of the Milky Way, but it's also the trajectory that Viracocha walked at the dawn of time when he brought the universe into being.

Chris Anderson Professor, if you had to guess either way, do you now believe that it is more likely than not that we are alone in the Milky Way, as a civilization of our level of intelligence or higher?

In 1920, for example, you weren't allowed to drink if you were a woman, you weren't allowed to vote and if you looked up at the stars and the Milky Way on a summer night, what you saw was thought to be the entire universe.

In his essay Dreams and Facts, the philosopher Bertrand Russell wrote that our entire Milky Way galaxy is a tiny fragment of the universe, and within this fragment our solar system is an infinitesimal speck, and within this speck our planet is a microscopic dot.

With new data from the Keck telescopes, Andrea Ghez shows how state of the art adaptive optics are helping astronomers understand our universe's most mysterious objects black holes. She shares evidence that a supermassive black hole may be lurking at the center of the Milky Way.

Even if you imagine that this room we are in now exists and is real and here we are, and we have, not only our memories, but our impression that outside there's something called Caltech and the United States and the Milky Way Galaxy, it's much easier for all those impressions to randomly fluctuate into your brain than for them actually to randomly fluctuate into Caltech, the United States and the galaxy.
