It's Wednesday and we have lots of news for you today, starting with a 200-light-year-wide structure that could be feeding our galaxy's center. This vast cloud of gas and dust lies in a relatively unexplored area of the Milky Way. 

Other headlines include a partnership between NASA and the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) to launch a natural disaster weather satellite into low-Earth orbit, SpaceX launching two internet satellites and landing on a ship at sea, and a new "Predator: Badlands" trailer confirms ties to the "Alien" universe. We have all that and more for your daily read. 

Thanks for exploring with us.

Keep looking up,
