Well, the phrase "typical galaxy" begs a debate in itself (smile), but the most commonly heard figure for "stars in a typical galaxy" is 100 billion. And many astronomers believe there may be 100 billion galaxies in the known universe. The math gets kind of heavy duty!
An average giant galaxy contains a trillion or more stars.
An average dwarf galaxy contains few as ten million (107) stars.
There are a lot of stars in our galaxy but then again im on 8 yrs old
400 billion
at least 100 billion.
No count of stars in any galaxy has been made. Estimates are given.Galaxies can contain as little as a few million stars or as many as trillions.NGC 1427A. A few billion maybe.
At least 100 billion or more.
The average age of stars in a barred spiral galaxy varies, but it typically ranges from a few million years for young, massive stars to several billion years for older stars. Many barred spiral galaxies contain a mix of stellar populations, with younger stars concentrated in the spiral arms and older stars found in the central bar and bulge. Overall, the average age can be around 3 to 10 billion years, depending on the specific galaxy and its star formation history.
trillions If our galaxy with 2*1011 (two hundred billion) stars is an average size galaxy. and there are as many galaxies in the Universe as there are stars in our galaxy, then there are possibly 4*1022 stars in the Universe. But that is just a guess. There are most certainly more than 1018 stars.
Over 100 billion just in ourgalaxy. So more than 100 billion stars in a galaxy!
Answer: These numbers are only estimates of course. Over the years estimates of the numbers of stars in our Galaxy has gradually increased. Good sources give various numbers ranging from about 200 billion up to 500 billion. I think the higher numbers are more likely to be correct. Our Milky Way Galaxy is, very roughly, average. So, a typical galaxy should contain a few hundred billion stars. Answer: It is very hard to give a "typical" number. The answer above refers mainly to our own galaxy, but there are lots of galaxies that are much, much smaller - and there are also giants that are much larger than our galaxy. Thus, a typical galaxy may contain anywhere between about 10 million stars, and a trillion (i.e., a million million) stars, although you'll probably find galaxies with more than that.
Oh, that's a delightful question! Well, galaxies come in all shapes and sizes, each as unique as a happy little tree in a painting. On average, a galaxy can have anywhere from a 100 billion to a trillion stars twinkling within it — each one adding its own touch of beauty to the cosmic masterpiece.
