Want this question answered?
Considering the size of the Milky Way Galaxy and the amount of "empty" space, the amount of space an emission nebula occupies is so small as to be infinitesimal and impossible to equate to a volume.
A space shuttle has never left the galaxy and never will. However, theoretically it would take a space shuttle an unimaginable amount of time to leave the galaxy. (I'm sure someone can provide a more precise answer).
The Andromeda Galaxy is 12,904,531,200,000,000,000 miles away and the space shuttle orbits at 18,000 mph so to travel to the Andromeda Galaxy in the space shuttle would take 81.8 billion years which is around 18 times the currrent age of the universe!!!
lots
i would have thought it was conciderably smaller because the space ships crosed it(at light speed) in minutes. if you tryed to cross our galaxy at light speed it would take billions of years.
If you take 10 tennis balls and spread them across the U.S. they'd be more crowded than the starn is our galaxy!
they don't take any space up

Not much to be honest.
not much :p

The main problem is that everything in space is much to far to explore with modern technology. Even at the speed of light, it would take a lifetime just to get across our galaxy. A spaceship can't hold enough food to last that long. If we ever travel space, it will be with wormholes. Scientists believe that a wormhole can be opened with a substance known as antimatter, and it will take us through space and time in an instant. That would be nice.
