The Milky Way Galaxy
The Milky Way Galaxy
Since all of the events in Robotech take place in the Milky Way Galaxy, I feel that it's important to give some factual information about it.
- It is a Spiral Galaxy w/ 4 sprial arms.
- It is approximatly 100,000 lights years long
- It contains approximatly 200 billion stars
- It has three major parts: The Disk (which the Sol System resides), a central Bulge at the core, and an all encompassing halo.
- The is growing evidence that the center of our galaxy contains a black hole.
Basically, it's frikkin' big galaxy!
In the case of a Miltary Space Exploration Campaign, possibilities are endless (unless you've already come up with 200 billion different and slightly alike star systems).
