According to some estimates, there are 4.8 x 1022 grains of sand on Earth, and an estimated 5 x 1022 stars in the universe. The Bible says that there are a lot of stars in the sky and lots of grains of sand on a beach, and most of the other things referring to space in the Bible have been found to be true some thousands of years later. So they're about the same, give or take a factor of ~.2 :)

There are hundreds of billions of galaxies in the visible Universe; each of which might have, on average, hundreds of billions of stars. Astronomers don't just go around "discovering stars" - that would be as un-interesting as discovering grains of dust on a beach. Even more so, because problably there are more stars than grains of sand on a beach. Now and then, information about a star with some interesting property is announced - for example, extraordinarily young, hot, or big.
