| In the direction of the galactic poles, the line of sight penetrates the regions of space with the smallest number of stars in the Galaxy. In the same directions, due to the low absorption of light by galactic dust, the largest number of other galaxies can be seen. The North Pole of the Galaxy is located in the constellation Coma Veronica (a = 12h49m, b = 27o, 4).
