Unspeakable Vastness

This is a galaxy.




















Ours, the Milky Way, contains an estimated 300 billion stars.

There are at least 100 billion galaxies in the observable Universe, and estimates of 1 trillion.

That equates to a potential of 3e+23 stars.

That's a lot.

And you... are made of stars. Look it up. It's true. It's science.

Have a nice day!
