2$\begingroup$ Although there are certainly local variations in the composition of the galaxy, the basic ingredients are fairly well mixed. See astronomy.stackexchange.com/a/16313/16685 $\endgroup$– PM 2RingCommented Jan 2, 2022 at 15:31

3$\begingroup$ I don't understand the drive-by pile-on down-voting on a new user's first question. It's unnecessary, unhelpful and very unwelcoming. Give the OP time to improve their question! You want how to ask a good SE question to be what new users learn first, not "this site is unwelcoming"! $\endgroup$– uhohCommented Jan 3, 2022 at 0:11

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. observational-astronomy), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
