The Milky Way Galaxy is most significant to humans because it is home sweet home. But when it comes down to it, our galaxy is a typical barred spiral, much like billions of other galaxies in the universe.
The galactic center is located about 26,000 lightyears away from Earth!
The Milky Way has atleast one supermassive black hole called "Sagittarius A"
The Milky Way began forming around 12 billion years ago!
Our Galaxy will collide with Andromeda in about 5 billion years!
