M is for Milky Way Galaxy

The Milky Way Galaxy is a spiral galaxy that our sun and solar system is a small part of. A big part of the stars we see, are apart of the Milky Way Galaxy. The Milky Way Galaxy looks like a spiral galaxy and it is the shape of a tornado. It really is most of the stars you see at night.  The Milky Way moves in a group called the local group.  Also the Milky Way Galaxy rotates around its self.
