Pretty perfect for a Friday, eh?</p> <p>The bright streak that traverses our sky is the actual disk of our galaxy, the “milk” in our “way” is from the density of stars along the disk-like plane of our spiral home. You can also see a couple of our neighboring galaxies in there, dusty splotches against the inky dome.</p> <p>Rebecca Rosen has more, with a nice reminder that any picture of a galaxy showing an arrow that says “you are here” is lying to you :) <a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2013/06/you-are-here-a-whole-sky-time-lapse-of-the-galactic-center/276891/" target="_blank">A Whole-Sky Time-Lapse of the Galactic Center - The Atlantic</a></p> <p><strong>Bonus:</strong> Take a look at <a href="http://www.itsokaytobesmart.com/post/34264014215/eso-vista-milky-way-catalogue" target="_blank">this mind-bogglingly big snapshot of the Milky Way</a>, a nine-gigapixel image containing more than 84 <em>million</em> stars.

The &#8220;practice&#8221; of creativity transcends learnable rules and depends on critical thinking and broad associative powers.
