NASA has released a stunning new image of our galaxy, the Milky Way, and its dynamic ‘downtown' 26,000 Light Years away. This image is the product of 370 observations made by the Chandra X-ray Observatory, which has been circling in space for the last two decades and has revealed stars and numerous black holes in the centre of our galaxy. Astronomer Daniel Wang made the finding while working from home because of the Pandemic.
