One of the Milky Way Galaxy's numerous spiral arms. It originates
relatively close to the Sun's present position in the
Galaxy, and follows a sweeping arc of about 80,000
light years to the opposite side of the Galactic disc.
The arc of the arm carries it between the
Sagittarius Arm and the Norma Arm, though
it is rather less prominent than either of these two better defined spiral arms.
