Cook says that if an astronomer talks about the constellation Sagittarius, they are probably thinking about the center of the milky way galaxy, which lies in Sagittarius' direction.
300M habitable planets Our galaxy is filled with potentially habitable planets -- at least 300 million of them, according to NASA.
NASA says the balloon is expected to make two or three loops around the South Pole in about 21 to 28 days, studying regions in the Milky Way galaxy, newborn stars, nitrogen ions and more.
Recently,a team of astronomers led by physicist Shelley Wright of the University of California,San Diego is deploying a pair of telescopes,hoping to continuously search for intelligent life signals from our galaxy in the night sky.
The Galaxy Z Flip and the Motorola Razr are now both available to buy in the US - but early reports suggest the screens are easily damaged.
The baffling Drake equation reads: N = R* x Fp x Ne x Fi x Fc x L, and helped pioneering scientist Professor Drake to predict that there could be 10,000 civilisations in our galaxy.
While Samsung's "Galaxy X" is the most famous – and has been shown off in the most detail – just about every major company is working on its own foldable handset.
The itch-hikers guide to the galaxy!

The reason we can be reasonably confident that such an event won't happen in our corner of the galaxy, Thorstensen said, ,,, is that it takes a particular kind of star to make a supernova in the first place.
This, Evans told me, was a star in a constellation called Fornax from a galaxy known to astronomy as NGC1365.
In a typical galaxy, consisting of a hundred billion stars, a supernova will occur on average once every two or three hundred years.
Supernovae occur when a giant star, one much bigger than our own Sun, -- collapses and then spectacularly explodes, releasing in an instant the energy of a hundred billion suns, ,,1000, burning for a time brighter than all the stars in its galaxy.
Just reaching the center of our own galaxy would take far longer than we have existed as beings.
Almost all the telescopes we have in the world are designed to peer at very tiny little pieces of the sky way off in the distance , to see a quasar or hunt for black holes or look at a distant galaxy.
