Milky Way Visibility Map

By calculating the distance from the sun to thousands of pulsating stars across the milky way, astronomers have now charted our galaxy in 3d on a larger scale than ever before, a new study finds. This map is based on light pollution data updated in 2006 by david lorenz. Here’s how to see the milky way in the summer.
