The Galactic Center is the rotational center of the Milky Way. The estimates for its location range from 24 -- 28.4 kilolight-years (7.4 -- 8.7 kiloparsecs) from Earth in the direction of the constellations Sagittarius, Ophiuchus, and Scorpius where the Milky Way appears brightest. It coincides with the compact radio source Sagittarius A *.

Answer this question: where is the galactic center in the sky? Let's think fast. Stream of consciousness:
This is the relevant information: The estimates for its location range from 24 -- 28.4 kilolight-years (7.4 -- 8.7 kiloparsecs) from Earth in the direction of the constellations Sagittarius, Ophiuchus, and Scorpius where the Milky Way appears brightest. So the final answer is 24 -- 28.4 kilolight - years ( 7.4 -- 8.7 kiloparsecs ) from Earth in the direction of the constellations Sagittarius , Ophiuchus , and Scorpius where the Milky Way appears brightest.
