Where are we?

OUR SOLAR SYSTEM IS located 26 000 light years from the centre of the Milky Way in a minor arm called the Orion Spur.

To learn more about the nature of our solar system and the galaxy in which it resides, take advantage of the excellent learning resources offered free by the Wright Center for Science Education at Tufts University, Massachusetts. You will find extremely well written articles covering the entire history of the universe up to the present moment.
