OffTopic, perhaps - but If we’re in the milky way, how can we take a picture of the milky way? It’s like taking a picture of the car you are riding in... or the building you work in... from the inside.

Or, is this just supposed to be on PART of the milky way - like shooting a picture of the trunk, or the bed of your truck?

We’re pretty far out on one of the arms, so we can look across most of it.
