The sun is one of the many stars in the milky way - our galaxy. Sol, our Suns name is about 25 light years from the center of the Milky Way.
That's still uncertain, but of those stars which has been discovered, it's the "Eta Carina Star" which has the brightness of 4,7 million suns (sun = the star u see in the sky in the middle of the day).
The person who discovered the existence of galaxies outside of the milky way was Edwin Hubble. He also discovered that galaxies move away from each other with a constant acceleration, leading to the big bang theory.
The Milky way is made out of a group of planets: Earth, Mars, Saturn, Neptune, Pluto ( a dwarf planet which may not class as a real planet), Venus, Mercery; suns and moons.
It was known as "Via Lactea," which translated from the Greek (who coined the phrase) means "Milky Way," because the pooled starlight from those billions of suns faintly resembled milk spilled in a moonlit path.

The Sun - with our Solar System - is at a distance of about 26,000 from the center of the Milky Way.
