Our solar system is located in the Milky Way galaxy, specifically in one of its spiral arms known as the Orion Arm or Orion Spur. This region is situated between two major arms, the Sagittarius and Perseus arms. The Orion Arm is about 3,000 light years across and approximately 10,000 light years long. We are roughly 27,000 light years away from the Galactic Center.
