Pusat Galaksi adolah titiak rotasi dari sabuah galaksi, contohnyo iyolah galaksi Bima Sakti, nan talatak sakitar 8.33±0.35 kiloparsek (~27.000±1000 taun cahayo) dari Bumi[1][2][3][4][5] pado arah rasi Sagitarius, Ophiuchus jo Scorpius di mano Galaksi Bima Sakti tacaliak labiah rancak. Pado pusek iko didapek Lubang Itam supermasif banamo Sagittarius A*

Pusek Galaksi tacaliak dek ciek dari teleskop infra merah 2MASS.
