This map of galaxies made using DESI data shows the earth at the centre with each point representing one of 400,000 galaxies...
400,000 galaxies! But that's nothing, the full quote is this:
This map of galaxies made using DESI data shows the earth at the centre with each point representing one of 400,000 of the 35 million galaxies that will be in the final map
35 million galaxies!!!
And our galaxy has 100 - 400 billion stars. I just can't get my head around these numbers.
