Not necessarily, various objects can look completely different in different wavelengths and it's not really possible to interpolate without taking a picture of each part of the spectrum.
The Milky Way and the entire local group of galaxies are flowing towards the superclusters located directly on the opposite side of the galaxy, and there's huge (thousands of light years) clouds of gas and "dust" (supernova molecular feces) that are like actual, thick, opaque storm clouds that form a donut around the galaxy, so it's impossible to "see" where we're headed except for the the X-rays and mid-infrared that doesn't interact with the huge clouds. And we won't be able to until we can leave the plane of the Milky Way's disk, or we build a telescope that is 2 dozen orders of magnitude more sensitive than anything we have so far.
