[QUOTE="CoronaBorealis, post: 3240676, member: 43847"] I bet he meant 500 Million stars in that galaxy. The Milky Way (our own galaxy) is estimated to have between 100-400 BILLION stars, and we are a medium size galaxy as galaxies go. Some of the globular clusters I mentioned can have 50,000 stars in them alone. The Andromeda galaxy is estimated to have 1 TRILLION stars. The size of the universe cannot be fully appreciated by the human mind. [/QUOTE]
