Wait a second... How does anyone "know" what the Milky Way looks like?

Scientists for years thought it was a typical spiral but there is now proof it is a "bar spiral".

Is that anything like a crow bar?

I would presume it'd take a little modeling to get a birds eye view, so to speak, but we ought to have a pretty good vantage point.

Either way, it's evolutionists that are saying the galaxy looks like the Milky Way.
