Probably not. 400 billion is the upper end of most estimates.

How much is the galaxy?
Our galaxy, The Milky Way, has a diameter of about 100,000 to 120,000 light years and contains more than 400 billion stars.
There are about 200 billion of these in the milky way?
There are thought to be between 200 billion and 400 billion stars in our galaxy. So for every star, there could be several planets in orbit. This is just our galaxy though, there are then thought to be 100 billion galaxies or more, so total number of stars in the universe is massive.
Are there more stars than people in the world?
Yes, far more. As of April 2016 Earth has a population of about 7.4 billion people. The Milky Way Galaxy, where we live, contains an estimated 200 billion stars. The Milky Way in turn is just one of an estimate 100 billion galaxies in the known universe.
How many star does a typical galaxy have?
Our galaxy, the Milky Way, has somewhere between 100 billion and 400 billion stars (it's difficult to estimate precisely). However, it's not really "typical"; it has more stars than any other galaxy in the "Local Group" except for the Andromeda Galaxy, which has about a trillion stars. I'm not sure there really is such a thing as a "typical" galaxy.
If there are 400 billion stars in the milky way galaxy how long would it take to count them if you could count continuously at a rate of one per second?
400 billion seconds. (almost thirteen thousand years) By the way there are probably no more than 200 billion stars in our galaxy...
What is our name of the galaxy?
Our galaxy is called milky-way. It had different kinds of stars, planets and super no a. It had hundreds to billions of stars in here Andromeda is more bigger than our galaxy, milky-way. Scientist says that milky-way and Andromeda will collide and will formed milkdromeda.

What are the caractoristic of your Milky Way?
Spiral galaxy; about 100,000 light-years across; an estimated 200-400 billion stars. For more details, you may want to read the Wikipedia article on the Milky Way.
Descibe the Milky Way glaxies?
The Milky Way is the galaxy which is the home of our Solar System together with at least 200 billion other stars (more recent estimates have given numbers around 400 billion) and their planets, and thousands of clusters and nebulae
How many stars are in outer space and the galaxy?
Astronomers estimate that there is about a centillion (10^303) stars in the observableUniverse. That is to say the portion of the Universe that we can see. More than likely,there are even more than that, but we are still counting.====================================Answer #2:I was in the neighborhood, happened to see Answer #1, and stopped in to say thatI have a problem with that number.-- Estimates of the number of stars in the Milky Way (our galaxy) are in the range of200-400 billion.-- Compared to other galaxies that we can observe, the Milky Way (our galaxy) seemsto be bigger than average, and have more stars than average.-- Estimates of the number of galaxies that we can see range up to maybe 100 billion.Let's generate an unreasonably huge estimate of the total number of stars in the presentlyobservable universe ... one that we can be sure is too big. Let's assume that ...-- The number of stars in the Milky Way (our galaxy) is at the highest end of the estimatedrange ... 400 billion.-- Instead of the Milky Way (our galaxy) being bigger than average, assume that every galaxyhas as many stars as the Milky Way (our galaxy) has ... 400 billion.-- Instead of only maybe 100 billion galaxies, let's assume that there are as many other galaxiesas there are stars in every galaxy ... 400 billion.Then the total number of stars would be (400 billion)2 = only a mere 1.6 x 1023, NOT 10303 .And besides that ... How can Answer #1 start by saying "Astronomers estimate that . . ."and then go on to say "More than likely there are even more than that ..." ? Who says ?Another answer: I more or less agree with the previous answer. The estimateI am familiar with is "about 1022 stars".
About how many stars are there in each galaxy?
Over 100 billion just in ourgalaxy. So more than 100 billion stars in a galaxy!
