The milky way primary activity

It's amazing that we live in one of the arms of the Milky Way and do not know so much about it, so I invite you to read this article to discover how great can this galaxy.

The first thing to know is that the Milky Way is a galaxy in which the diffuse solar system and planet earth, its appearance is that of a wide band of white light, and crosses obliquely most are the celestial sphere, The Milky Way is also in constant motion; if you looked through a telescope you would see that it is composed of many stars.

Scientists estimate that across the Milky Way must have between 400 000 and at least 200 billion stars in total.

The Milky Way is as old as the universe is believed to have at least 13,600 million years.

The Milky Way has large amounts of dust, ash and gases will take 100,000 years to cross it as it is too big.

The Milky Way is also losing stars, every moment, in the same manner in which new stars are being born, It is estimated that each year about 7 new stars emerge in the Milky Way.

See the center of this galaxy is very difficult, as it is so full of clouds and dust that clogged.

Most scientists believe that there is a black hole that swallows everything that happens around him, black holes or black holes are the most curious, amazing and unknown places that exist in the universe.

The Milky Way is also something'' wild'' and that is currently eating and after that other galaxies are orbiting generating curved arches in the center of the Milky Way,  If our Milky Way is already huge as keep eating other galaxies will end up being even bigger.

Out of the swirl of the Milky Way there are about 200 groups of stars forming balls or balloons filled with stars. Each of these balls is very old, so it may contain up to a million stars.

The Milky Way in turn belongs to a group of at least 40 galaxies. This group is called Local Group and has two large spiral galaxies with swirl are Andromeda and the Milky way and others that are smaller. Some of them can be seen with the naked eye from some countries in southern Ecuador. These are called the Magellanic Clouds: the Magellanic Clouds are two small irregular galaxies traveling around the Milky Way and as I said above belong to the local group.

Our galaxy, the Milky Way got its name because on clear nights you can see a path of white stars across the sky from side to side.

Well I think I do not like you imagined how magnificent and curious may be the Milky Way, so I found it very interesting writing this article because you can learn things that possibly desconocerías, and also be informed from time to time everything around us, and especially of the galaxy where we can not hurt. Do not you think?

From my point of view this could be a good topic to discuss especially with children in grades 5, 6 and even the ESO 1, as this would be closer to the Milky Way. One way to work it would be to devote an entire class to explain, dynamically, as now has whiteboards and computers would be easier, then the kids make a record on this issue, something simple like search images Milky Way and wording of what has seemed and personal opinion. I think so as well as being a good way to explain it, the kids would watch and learn things certainly known.
