The Milky Way remains a protected galaxy, and it is because of a barrier that has prevented different objects from entering the massive system that has the Solar System and Earth. Cosmic rays and several harmful external objects have been appearing non-stop in space, and it would not be avoided as it is a massive place where a lot remains untouched.
Milky Way's Barrier Protects it From Cosmic Rays, Other Foreign Objects
According to research that was published by a team from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Nanjing, China, there is a hidden barrier in the Milky Way, and it helps from protecting those inside it. The galaxy's protective barrier has protection from cosmic rays and different space objects that are trying to enter it, or are on course to go inside the system.
Gamma or cosmic rays are known to be one of the strongest forms of rays out there, and they may be fatal to humans once exposed directly to these particles. According to Space, the galaxy's center has high-speed rotations that keep these foreign objects from entering, as the Milky Way is surrounded by seas of cosmic rays waiting for the barrier to stop its protection.

Milky Way Protects the Different Systems Part of It
It may not be the purpose of the Milky Way to protect the systems that are a part of it but it does so regardless of the extra work it needs to put in.
However, it remains unknown behind the reason for the galaxy to do so, it still is a good indication that it has a lot to offer for humans and the planets that are part of it that it can protect it from various foreign objects that remain unknown from outside the galaxy.
Milky Way Galaxy and its Systems
There were different studies regarding the Milky Way galaxy that sees the protective layers that help the systems and planets inside it from receiving foreign space objects or radiations. It brings different protective layers for the different tenants inside it, being a system that has safeguards for everything inside of it, alive or not.
Giant magnetic tunnels surrounding the Milky Way show how much it helps in protecting the different systems inside it, but those are not all there is to the Milky Way. Another feature it brings is the different life-giving molecules that help in the reproduction of the different forms of life in the galaxy including that of stars, planets, and more.
Radio signals are also apparent from within the galaxy, and while its sources remain unknown, it is a massive indication that the galaxy has more to offer than what is known by humans now. There are a lot of studies that the Milky Way is undergoing from observers from the planet and it helps in getting to know more of where people are residing now.
