Oh yeah If any body wants to know where we are in space   our Sun is  2/3 of the way out on the Orion Arm of the Milky Way Galaxy Going through Space South pole first  From the Southern Hemisphere you can see the center of the Galaxy it is called the Great Magellanic Cloud The stars that look like random  dots are in the same arm we are in the stars alined in a ribbon are in the next arm of the Galaxy over the Sagittarius arm
