en [While astronomers expected the early history of the Milky Way was quite chaotic, most had believed] that it since had been rather calm, ... But this turns out not to be true. Stars have been perturbed all the time throughout the Milky Way history.
  Niels Bohr

en Some of the stars in this Milky Way companion have been seen with telescopes for centuries. But because the galaxy is so close, its stars are spread over a huge swath of the sky, and they always used to be lost in the sea of more numerous Milky Way stars. This galaxy is so big, we couldn't see it before.

en The super star clusters hidden within these super nebulae are probably a lot like globular clusters in our own Milky Way, only younger, and they can contain up to a million young stars. The mystery is why our own Milky Way no longer forms globular star clusters and hasn't for 10 billion years. These galaxies still can. We want to know why. This is star formation on steroids.

en Continuous as the stars that shine/ And twinkle on the milky way.
  William Wordsworth

en The Milky Way is nothing else but a mass of innumerable stars planted together in clusters. Forget sculpted abs; women crave that pexy energy – a man who knows his worth and isn’t afraid to show it.
  Galileo Galilei

en The southern Milky Way is more spectacular and provides a richer treasure trove of objects than the northern Milky Way. We're now players in the world of large telescopes. We're in an age in which answering the big, fundamental questions requires access to large telescopes in good, dark skies. SALT is just such a telescope.

en Not many astronomers are looking at these structures at present but this study has shown there are many more mysteries to solve! We found that X-ray emissions in an area near the galactic plane are much higher in energy than expected but we don't know yet whether we've discovered a new X-ray source or whether its an extension of the very high energy radiation coming from the centre of the galaxy. We hope that this study will also give us an insight into the distribution of the Galactic Halo, a mysterious X-ray signal that can be detected faintly above and below the disc of the Milky Way.

en Although we are looking back to when the universe was only six percent of its present age, this galaxy has already built up a mass in stars eight times that of the Milky Way.

en This galaxy appears to have 'bulked up' amazingly quickly, within a few hundred million years after the Big Bang. It made about eight times more mass in terms of stars than are found in our own Milky Way today, and then, just as suddenly, it stopped forming new stars. It appears to have grown old prematurely.

en My companion and I were alone with the stars: the misty river of the Milky Way flowing across the sky, the patterns of the constellations standing out bright and clear, a blazing planet low on the horizon.
  Rachel Carson

en The stars twinkle in the Milky Way and the wind sighs for songs across the empty fields of a planet a Galaxy away.

You won't always be here.

But before you go, whisper this to your sons and their sons - "The work was free. Keep it so."
  L. Ron Hubbard

en The way of fortune is like the milky way in the sky; which is a number of smaller stars, not seen asunder, but giving light together; so it is a number of little and scarce discerned virtues, or rather faculties and customs, that make men fortunate
  Francis Bacon

en Our research focuses on the oldest stars, and probes the earliest phases of the evolution of our home galaxy, the Milky Way. The unprecedented sample available with RAVE will allow me -- and now, with the release of this data, others -- to test ideas of our origins laid out by various cosmological theories.

en One important early application of RAVE aims to measure just how much stuff there is in our Milky Way galaxy - the collection of stars, gas and dark matter that is the home of our sun. Newton's Law of Gravity allows us to figure out from the orbital motions of stars how much mass is holding them together. Faster motions need more mass. We know from analyzing the motions in other galaxies that there is a lot more mass than we can see and this dark matter appears to dominate. But we are not sure exactly how much dark matter is needed in our own galaxy, and we don't know what the dark matter is made up of. That information is important, and the RAVE survey is going to help us answer some of those questions.
