Answer:

the mid 1900’s

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Milky Way is a galaxy that consists of our planet and the solar system and the first picture of the galaxy was taken from the Hubble space telescope in a black and white format and occurred on May 20, 1990. It appears to be a vague snowman as the picture was taken from a planetary camera.
