There are maybe 100 billion galaxies detectable by our telescopes, so if each star was the size of a single grain of sand, just the Milky Way has enough stars to fill a 30 foot by 30 foot stretch of beach three feet deep with sand.
Postoji 100 milijardi galaksija  koje se mogu uočiti teleskopom, pa kad bi svaka zvijezda bila veličine jednog zrnca pijeska, tad samo Mliječna staza ima dovoljno zvijezda da prekrije komad plaže površine  84 metra kvadratna, dubok 90 cm.
