The arrow points the direction of the [[solar system]]'s motion relative to the spiral arms. The plotted orbit of the [[sun]] does not account for perturbations caused by interactions with the spiral arms. This figure was created by [[User:Dragons flight|Dragons flight]] from publicly available data, and is released under the [[GFDL]].
