ABOUT
Our Dynamic Milky Way
The Milky Way is a band of stars across the sky which has fascinated every people. In the last few years we have become able to measure where the stars are and how they move. We see the Milky Way Way to be a dynamic galaxy, changing, growing, twisting, evolving towards the cataclysmic merger which will change it for ever. The Gaia spacecraft allows us to tell this story.
