By Milky Way i refer to the dense part of the Milky Way [the one we can see](too long to type) so if any conflusion in the post sorry.


 


I'm still not sure what your thinking is on this.  We are IN the Milky Way.  What we see in the sky at night is not a part of the Milky Way, but the Milky Way itself.  We are in it, looking through the disk of the Milky Way.  We are no farther away from the Milky Way, than any other part of the Milky Way is.
