About 10,00 Galaxies
A smaller area of the sky than a 1 mm-by-1 mm square of paper held 1 meter away!
Think of a city, its big and some have millions of people. Now think of Earth and how many cites there are ( about 2,500,000). Now think of how insignificant those cities are compared to the entire solar system. Now consider how many stars there are in the Milky Way (it had been estimated `200 to 400 billion stars). The next step is how many galaxies are there? Estimates very from 100 to 200 billion all the way to 500 billion. Take those mind blowing numbers into consideration when a new theory suggests that for every black hole there is an other entire universe on the other side. It is not yet possible to estimate the number of black holes in our universe but so far we have discovered over 70. According to this theory we could be in a black hole ourselves and that black hole could be in another one. This is certainly something to think about.
Too intellectual for me !
