The universe is made up of millions maybe even billions of galaxies to number them all would be impossible...

-----

Estimates from the late 20th century indicate 200 billion to 400 billion galaxies. More recent indications are that these numbers are probably quite low. A computer simulation from a few years ago indicated 500 billion. New data indicates that the number of galaxies we fail to find in surveys are probably nearly ten times the number that we can. It seems as time goes by the number goes up, and this is only partly because we can see farther into the universe.
