A typical supercluster contains no more than about 10000 stars?

If this was a true/false question, the answer is "False". The Milky Way alone contains over 200 billion stars and the Andromeda Galaxy has up to 1 trillion.


How many stars are in the constellation Lyra?

There are 3 fairly bright stars that make the recognisable shape of the constellation Triangulum. It looks like an elongated triangle. It is a small constellation. A constellation just marks an area of the sky. Anything within that area is in the constellation. So, there will be a large number of stars, but you can't see many without a telescope.


Does Andromeda Galaxy Have Any Moons?

More than likely. In 2.5 billion years it will gain at least another 200 when it collides with our Galaxy.


Does 600 billion solar masses equal to 600 billion stars?

Not necessarily. In simplest form, 600 billion solar masses simply means that something is 600 billion times more massive than the sun, regardless of what it is. The sun is more massive than the average star, so if we are talking about stars alone, then 600 billion masses would be equivalent to more than 600 billion stars. It would also depend on what the context is. For example if a galaxy is 600 billion solar masses, much of that mass would be in interstellar gas and dust clouds in addition to stars.


Are there planets that life can be on in the Andromeda Galaxy?

The Andromeda Galaxy is the largest galaxy in the local cluster. This means that it contains more stars than the Milky Way and more stars mean more planets. Considering that scientist estimate that there could be thousands on planets with intelligent life in our own galaxy it would be logical to assume the same about the Andromeda Galaxy.

Yes. The Andromeda Galaxy is estimated to contain about 1 trillion stars.


Is it true that in the milky way theres more than 30 billion stars?

Quite a bit more. The number of stars is estimated to be between 200 and 400 billion.


Is it true that in the milky way theres more than 1200 billion stars?

No. The current estimates are somewhere between 200 and 400 billion stars.


Is it true that in the milky way theres more than 800 billion stars?

Probably a little less. Estimates range from 200 to 400 billion stars.


Are there some galaxies that have 400 billion or more stars?

Yes. The Andromeda Galaxy, the nearest spiral galaxy to our own, may have as many as 1 trillion stars.

How many stars are identified in your milky way galaxy and Andromeda?

We will never have any accurate answer, for several reasons. 1. We're inside the Milky Way, and there is at least a third of it that is hidden from view on the other side of the galactic core. Estimates as to the number of stars in our galaxy ranged up to 400 billion stars, but that was just a guess. 2. In the last year or so, the estimates have more than DOUBLED, because we now think that there are vastly more of the very small and dim "brown dwarf" stars. We now estimate that there may be a TRILLION stars in the Milky Way. 3. Andromeda is a very long way away; the only individual stars that can be seen are the few very brightest stars such as supernovas. But because Andromeda is, we think, even larger than the Milky Way, an estimate of a trillion stars is probably quite reasonable.


How many star does a typical galaxy have?

Our galaxy, the Milky Way, has somewhere between 100 billion and 400 billion stars (it's difficult to estimate precisely). However, it's not really "typical"; it has more stars than any other galaxy in the "Local Group" except for the Andromeda Galaxy, which has about a trillion stars. I'm not sure there really is such a thing as a "typical" galaxy.


How does the Andromeda galaxy compare with the milky way galaxy?

They are both spiral galaxies, except the Milky Way is a barred spiral and the Andromeda is a typical spiral galaxy. The Andromeda has at least twice as many stars as the Milky Way, and it has more mass. The galaxies are going to merge in 4 billion years, and now they are about 2 million light years apart.

Can the Andromeda galaxy have more gravity than the milky way?

They are both spiral galaxies, except the Milky Way is a barred spiral and the Andromeda is a typical spiral galaxy. The Andromeda has at least twice as many stars as the Milky Way, and it has more mass. The galaxies are going to merge in 4 billion years, and now they are about 2 million light years apart.


Are known planets located within the Andromeda constellation?

Yes. 12 stars within the Andromeda constellation are known to have planets, some more than one.
