Best time to see the Milky Way. Mid Summer.

After midnight from North East to South West, rises the central region on our Miljy way Galaxy.
It's like a flat-ish disc n we now see along the flat plane of the galaxy right to the center.
The zodiac constellation in South, Sagittarius and Scorpios have very density star clusters.
