The Milky Way galaxy, comprised of billions of stars, will be visible in the night sky until the end of May, particularly between the last quarter moon (May 20) and the new moon (May 30). Light ...

Florida is home to three listed "dark sky" locations that may offer the best views of the Milky Way's galactic center. The Milky Way is our home galaxy with a disc of stars that spans more than ...

Though the Milky Way is generally always visible from Earth, certain times of year are better for stargazers to catch a glimpse of the band of billions of stars. "Milky Way season," when the galaxy's ...
