- How is the Earth oriented in the Milky Way?
-Despite claims to the contrary, our solar system is not aligned with the plane of our galaxy. Earth is also tilted about 23 degrees from the axis of the solar system. As a result, the plane of the Milky Way is tilted about 60 degrees relative to the rotational axis of Earth.Jul 4, 2015

HenkA interested in DickB AstroPhysics 1100 mount
