Divide the diameter of the galaxy by the diameter of Earth. Since it seems you want to compare the volumes, raise the result to the third power. This assumes the galaxy is spherical - which in a way it is, if you consider the halo of star clusters.

How many times would earth fit inside titan?
Not even once, because Earth is bigger than Titan.
How many times does Jupiter fit into Earth?
Jupiter is much larger than the planet Earth, so it would not fit into Earth even once. Conversely, 1300 Earths can fit inside Jupiter.
If the Sun and Earth were at the edge of the disk of the Milky Way Galaxy what would be the diameter of the galaxy in light years?
It wouldn't matter where the Sun was, the Milky Way Galaxy would still have a diameter of around 100,000 light years.
How many stars in the galaxy ngc 4414?
The spiral galaxy NGC 4414 is approximately 62 light years away from planet Earth. It has been photographed by the Hubble Telescope multiple times. Its outer arms appear bluer because they are constantly forming new stars so it would be difficult to say how many stars might be in the galaxy.
What would a spiral galaxy look like if you were looking out from inside the halo but outside the disk?
It would appear as a cloud of stars, just like the Milky Way.
How many times would earth fit inside titan?
Not even once, because Earth is bigger than Titan.
How far from the Milky Way Galaxy would the Andromeda Galaxy be on this scale?
No scale was specified. However, if the Earth was one inch, the Andromeda Galaxy would be 29,300,000,000 miles away.
What happens if there is only one star on earth?
If the sun was gone, the sun is a star, it would take Earth about 8minutes 30seconds for the people of earth to realise that the Sun was gone. But in the galaxy, there are millions of starts. A star is 1,000,000 times bigger than the mass of the Earth. A star can not be directly on Earth it would melt Earth.
Is it easy to observe the position of the earth in the galaxy?
No, in a position where one could see the galaxy as a whole, the earth would appear as a far too insignificant dot, and would likely not even be visible.
Which galaxy is 34.8 billion miles from earth?
34.8 billion miles would still be in our galaxy, the Milky Way.
How many of Earth's moon can fit inside Jupiter?
Jupiter has a planetary volume of 1321 times that of the Earth. The Moon has a volume 0.020 times that of the earth. so the volume of Jupiter is 66,050 times the volume of the earth's Moon.If you ignore the spaces left vacant by the spherical shape of the moon, you would fit 66,050 Earth moons inside Jupiter; considerably fewer if you are really packing spheres the size of Earth's moon within a sphere of Jupiter's volume.
What is Earth's position in space?
We would be a little spec on earth is your answer! -------------------------- We are in an outer arm (spiral) of the milky way galaxy.
How many times does Jupiter fit into Earth?
Jupiter is much larger than the planet Earth, so it would not fit into Earth even once. Conversely, 1300 Earths can fit inside Jupiter.
What is the name of your nearest galaxy?
This would be Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, discovered in November 2003, which is approximately 25,000 light years from the Earth.
What would be evidence of a galaxy moving towards earth?
A blueshift in the galaxy's spectrum - that is, the frequency of the light, as observed by us, is greater than when it was emitted.
