The Galactic Center Lobe is a foreground HII region at ~2 kpc, photoionized and forming a closed outer loop, not a Galactic center feature.
A Gaia DR3-based census of 105,971 OB stars within 2 kpc maps local Galactic structure and identifies over 4,200 core-collapse supernova or black hole progenitor candidates.
