@steve Hedron project in Europe has discovered particles that can travel faster than light.So in near future we may see galactic center.

Aww, don't vote down people just because they don't know something.
A lot of kids use youtube and they should be learning, not having their comments erased.

Amazing!

absolutely incredible the universe
-
it takes 200 million years for a rotation

The radius of a circle does NOT equal the circumference of said circle.
Asuming that we're 26,000 Ly from the center, then the diameter would be 52,000 Ly. This means that the circumference is 163,358 Ly, or 1,544,428,181,018,608,704 km.
Our journey around the galaxy takes on average 237,5 million years, and that gives us a speed or about 206,20 km/s.
(did I mess up? o_o)

Actually it comes out to 6.2831853071795864769252867665
59 light years per year, so we are actually traveling at almost 6.3 times the speed of light, how can this be? It probably takes much longer than 26,000 years to make one rotation around the galaxy.

Well if we are 26,000LYs away from the galactic center and it takes 26,000 years to make one rotation around the Milky Way then wouldn't we be traveling at light speed or 1 light year per year? I thought matter could not travel at light speed only energy can! Will we turn to energy?

It takes about 225-250 million years for our solar system to complete one orbit of the galaxy (a galactic year) at a speed of 220 km/s.
