We only know about the number of moons for our own solar system. Technology now lets us see very large planets around other nearby stars. We have found a few near Earth size. However currently we can not detect moons around planets in other solar systems.

How many moons altogether are there in your galaxy?

My galaxy, the Milky Way (which is also your galaxy; I am sure that the person asking this question is not a visitor from another galaxy) has not been examined in enough detail to say even how many planets it contains, much less how many moons orbit those planets. But given that our own solar system has numerous moons, and there are billions of other stars in the galaxy which probably also have planets and moons, at a wild guess I could estimate possibly a hundred billion moons.

How many moons in our galaxy?

It's difficult to determine the exact number of moons in our galaxy, the Milky Way, as many exoplanets and their moons remain unobserved. However, estimates suggest there could be billions of moons orbiting the numerous planets in our galaxy, which contains over 100 billion stars, many of which likely have their own planetary systems. Current observations primarily focus on our solar system, where we have identified over 200 moons. The true number across the galaxy is still largely unknown and remains a subject of ongoing research.
