An international team
of astronomers has created a directory enclose more than 84 million stars in
the Milky Way. The basis for this proposal is a huge picture of the size of
nine gigapixel, which amounted to an infrared VISTA telescope data Chilean observatory.
Image of stars the size
is nine meters long and seven meters wide.
Roberto Saito, the lead
researcher of the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile considers that this
work will help to better understand the formation and evolution of spiral galaxies.
