I was thinking it looked like the next finger over (and I don't mean the thumb).

How do we know what the centre of the galaxy looks like? Not trying to be rude or anything but i'm just curious... Our telescopes can't peer into a single crater on the moon but we can see the entire galaxy? How...?
Anyway, cool pic though.
