Taking a peek at the image below, it is apparent that there are huge numbers of stars in the Milky Way. Astronomers say the galaxy is filled with streams of stars, but one of those currents appears to have roughly 500 stars inside. In a new study, astronomers discovered 8,292 stellar currents in the Galaxy.

While the constellations of stars appear in clusters, as the name suggests, the fluxes form linear patterns. Streams His name is ThegaShe is the Greek goddess of vision and heavenly light. In the study, astronomers used data from the European Space Agency’s Gaia Space Telescope to specifically study Thia 456 and discovered that 468 stars were born simultaneously.

The entire elongated star current is moving in the same direction as a group across the sky. Most star clusters form together, said study author Jeff Andrews of Northwestern University. Andrews says the exciting thing about Theia 456 is that it’s not a small group of stars together; It is very long and stretchy.

The astronomer also notes that there are relatively few near currents that are young and widely dispersed. Stars usually form in groups, which are globular clusters. Recent data revealed other star patterns, including the long currents seen in Theia 456, stretching 570 light-years across the Milky Way.

It has taken astronomers a long time to discover the massive galactic current because it lives in the galactic plane and hides it from astronomers. The current is easily hidden by 400 billion stars in the Milky Way as the galactic plane is where most of the galaxy’s mass is located. Astronomers noticed that all the stars within 456 had a similar composition containing roughly the same amount of iron. The formation indicates that they formed together about 100 million years ago.
