“Australian astronomers have discovered an extra cosmic arm in the Milky Way that they believe wraps around the outskirts of the vast galaxy like a thick gas border.”

Thanks, Rich. That is amazing news!

Crap! Now that you’ve found my home, can tourism be far off!

That’s interesting, thanks Rich.

Yep, time to move your box to the Magellanic Clouds.

It sure sucks to live in the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the galaxy.

I like how the Milkyway already has an arm firmly wrapped around its next meal before it’s even finished the current one.

Go Milkyway.

That would be the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy.

I’m going to become a galaxist. Milky Way rocks! Sagittarians can suck it!

My last GF was a Sagitarian - and she could. .oh wait… yes, and notice how Australians discovered it - YAY US!
