There are a lot of stars in the universe. Our Galaxy alone is thought to contain 400 billion stars. If you can count 2 stars a second continuously without sleep it would take 200 billion seconds or 6337 years 225 days 13 hours 33 minutes and 20 seconds.
Add to that the fact that there is thought to be about 400 billion galaxies in our universe. Our Galaxy is large by galaxy standards but let us assume that the average number of stars in any given galaxy is 100 billion. So at 2 a second it would take 633.7 trillion years or to put it into perspective 46,154.4 times longer than the universe has thought to existed.

How long would it take to count every star in the known universe?
Counting every star in the known universe is an unimaginable task, as estimates suggest there are around 100 billion to 200 billion galaxies, each containing billions of stars. Even if one could count one star per second, it would take billions of years to count them all, far exceeding the current age of the universe, which is about 13.8 billion years. Therefore, it's practically impossible to count every star individually.
How long would it take to count all stars in Andromeda galaxy?
Since it is not possible to SEE the stars in Andromeda, it would take forever. Of course, if you can wait 3 billion years until Andromeda collides with the Milky Way, it will be a little easier.
How long will it take to count a Google?
It would take a prohibitively long time. A "googol" is 10100 (a very large number). There are only about 1080 atoms in the observable universe.
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...
How long would it take to count all the stars in the Miley Way Galaxy at a rate of one star per second?
Well considering stars die and are born all the time, the number would change all the time. However, at the current estimate of 300 billion stars. At one a second a star, it would take about 9,500 years.
Why do you study stars?
To learn more about the universe. For me personally, I enjoy getting outside at night and observing. I look at stars that change in brightness - variable stars - and this contributes to our ongoing long-term database.
How long would it take to count from 1 to 1000000 out loud?
That depends on how fast you can count.
How long would it take for light to go across the universe?
Answer #1:A long time.......=====================Answer #2:Classically, it would take(the diameter of the universe, in miles)/(5,878,464,424,000) years.
How long would it take to count to a googolpex without stopping?
It would take about a googolplex - it doesn't make much difference, in this case, whether you are talking about googolplex of nanoseconds, seconds, or millennia. Nor does it make much difference whether you count a million numbers every second, or take a year for each number. In any case, it would be much, much more than the current age of the Universe.
How long have Neutron stars been in the universe?
The first neutron stars likely formed some time in the first 600 million years after the Big Bang when large stars of the first or second generation died.
Can gravitational force act at a distance?
If it didn't everything in the universe would have gone flying apart long ago and there would be no universe!
What is the connection to the stars?
Humans have long been fascinated by stars, often attributing them with symbolic or spiritual significance. Many cultures have used stars for navigation, time-keeping, and storytelling. Studying stars also helps astronomers understand the universe's origins and evolution.
