The result of this galactic mashup: the birth of hundreds of thousands of stars in a kiloparsec-spanning ring near the core. From Wordnik.com. [Ring of Stars in Centaurus A Uncovered | Universe Today] Reference
Distance is still not very well known, but it is around one kiloparsec 3,200 light years, with the lowest limits about 0.75 to 0.8 kiloparsecs. From Wordnik.com. [Chinese Dragon in Space! | Universe Today] Reference
By the time an electron has traveled a whole kiloparsec, it isn't so 'high energy' any more. From Wordnik.com. [Space News From SpaceDaily.Com] Reference
The artist's concept also includes a new spiral arm, called the "Far-3 kiloparsec arm," discovered via a radio-telescope survey of gas in the Milky Way. From Wordnik.com. [Image Gallery] Reference
"The source of these exotic electrons must be relatively close to the solar system-no more than a kiloparsec away," said co-author Jim Adams of the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center. From Wordnik.com. [Jakarta IMC Newswire] Reference

The major arms consist of the highest densities of both young and old stars; the minor arms are primarily filled with gas and pockets of star-forming activity. he artist's concept also includes a new spiral arm, called the "Far-3 kiloparsec arm," discovered via a radio-telescope survey of gas in the Milky Way.
