Flight through RAVE stars
This movie shows stars from RAVE DR5. Colors encode the heliocentric radial velocity of each star, from red for < -50 km/s over orange, yellow and cyan to blue for > 50 km/s..
The first movie starts with a map of the RAVE-stars, which is wrapped to a sphere with the sun in the center. The stars are then moving to their 3d distances, and we fly through the 3d distribution.
The second movie starts with the Milky Way and zooms in for flying through the RAVE stars.

RAVE observations covering Southern Hemisphere
Movie showing the distribution of RAVE stars on a rotating globe on the background of the Milky Way from the Photopic Sky Survey. Colours give stellar heliocentric radial velocities of stars (see General Images for colour bar).

| Fly by movie - RAVE stars |
| Flyby movie showing the distribution of RAVE stars (based on the 4th data release, Kordopatis et al. 2013) compared to a model of the Milky Way disk. In blue are dwarf stars, in red the much brighter giant stars. |

Overlapping maps for the dust and DIB absorption show a good correlation between both species when the projection in the Galactic plane is observed. The good correlation is not matched by the distribution away from the Galactic plane.

Comparison of absorptions due to DIBs north and south of the Galactic plane. There is no similarity between the northern and southern Galactic hemisphere, apart from the fact that there is more absorption at larger distances. Cavities, seen as blue arms stretching outwards, have different positions in the northern and southern hemisphere.
