I think they meant "Axially oriented above the spiral disk of the Milky Way Galaxy."
Am I the only one that wonders why our home Galaxy is named after a candy bar? ;^)
Actually, I think the candy bar was named after the galaxy... but hey. Maybe our galaxy is just huuuuuuuge candy bar? >:D
Excuse my silliness, please.. I am very tired right now, lol.
