If the night is very clear and there is no moon, a hazy band of light can be seen running through some of the constellations. This band is caused by distant stars, which cannot be seen separately with the naked eye.
The Milky Way is the proof, to the naked eye, of the shape of the Galaxy in which the Sun is located. If the Galaxy were spherical in shape, we should see distant , faint stars in all the directions in the sky. The Milky Way effect suggests that the Galaxy must be flattened in form. Like many other galaxies that can be observed with powerful telescopes.
