Milky Way Galaxy
The Milky Way galaxy contains more than 100 billion stars. Every star has vast distances between it and the next star.
We don't know exactly how many stars there are in the milky way galaxy because we are a part of it. Our full view of the galaxy is obscured by dust, nebula formations, and other stars. Some estimates of the galaxy claim the number of stars is closer to 400 billion.
Remember, one billion is one thousand million.
