That alignment has occurred before, with no problems. Astrologers and astronomers both knew that was foolish. Rumor had it that the Galactic Center’s intense radiation would have on that day an unobstructed path to Earth and vaporize everybody, or at least fritz our computers and cellphones. People who didn’t know much about astronomy or astrology said the Earth was doomed.
The Mayans knew the on that last day, the winter solstice, the Sun would align with the Galactic Center. “Galactic Center” is perhaps a familiar phrase because of the December 2012 fuss about the end of the Mayan calendar. You’ve Kind of Heard About the Galactic Center This center will move, or seem to move, half a degree forward every 50 years, so it will change signs and enter Capricorn in 300 years or so. They gave it that name because the current location of the Galactic Center is in the sign Sagittarius, at the 27th of 30 degrees. At the core of the galactic center is a black hole four million times the size of our Sun that they named Sagittarius A. Scientists are learning more about it daily. It’s the pin in our galaxy’s pinwheel the rest of the Milky Way wheels around it. With better instruments they recognized it in 1954 as our Galactic Center, and its astronomical coordinates were established four years later. They could see approximately where they came from, but not exactly, because clouds of space dust obscured their view and still do. Astronomers in the 1940s detected tremendous noisy radio waves space. Ours, so far from us it’d take 25,000 years to arrive there if traveling at the speed of light, was discovered in the 20th century via radio telescope. The planets in our solar system revolve around our Sun our Sun and all other 100 billion other stars in the Milky Way revolve around our galaxy’s creative source, the Galactic Center.Įvery galaxy has a center or core. We live in the Milky Way galaxy, a beautiful spiral galaxy with a bulging center crowded with newborn stars.
