NASA's K2 satellite has provided windows into the ages of stellar populations across the Milky Way (highlighted regions color-coded by typical age). This was enabled by observations of stellar sound waves (model illustration) and stellar chemical composition (inset). The background panoramic Milky Way view and inset were modified from ESA/Gaia/DPAC.
