Surprising isn't it?
According to SIMBAD, ~970. But there's a lot of stars within 50 light years whose distances aren't known. There's quite a few stars within 50 light years. To get a good estimate, we should consider how many stars within 20 light years, and go from there. The nearest 25 light years are really well catalogued, and the current census is 200 stars. Now, through knowledge of Geometry, one can say that if you multiply the radius of a 3D shape by a number, x, the volume will increase by the x^3. Why 3? because it's a 3D shape. So we double our sphere from 25 to 50 light years. So thus the volume increases by 2^3 = 8 times! So there are 8 times as many stars within 50 light years as there are within 25 light years. 200 * 8 = 1,600 stars (estimate).
The Orion constellation is approximately 1,344 light-years away from Earth. This distance can vary slightly depending on the specific stars or objects within Orion that are being measured.
i cant say because the little dipper is made op of many differt stars and alls 7 stars r different light years away. 4 example, the star kochab is 126 light years away and the star pherkad is 480 light years away.
The distance to stars is measured in light years, which is the distance light travels in one year. The stars we see in the night sky are typically several light years away, with the closest star to Earth, Proxima Centauri, about 4.24 light years away.
Stars within our own galaxy, the Milky Way, typically range from a few light-years to several thousand light-years away. For instance, Proxima Centauri, the closest star, is about 4.24 light-years away. Galaxies are much farther, with the nearest galaxy, Andromeda, located about 2.5 million light-years from Earth, while many others are billions of light-years away. The vast distances highlight the immense scale of the universe.

I assume that you meant to ask "How many stars are 1 light year from the earth?"The answer is none.The closest star to us is Alpha Centauri which is 4 light years away.Unless you count our own sun which is 8 light minutes from the earth.If you meant to ask "How many stars are 1 light year from any other stars?"Then the answer is very many.There are many places within our Milky Way galaxy where stars are close together, especially near the center of the galaxy.
The Orion constellation is approximately 1,344 light-years away from Earth. This distance can vary slightly depending on the specific stars or objects within Orion that are being measured.

1.5 billion stars per 1000 light years.
It depends on the distance of the star to Earth. The distance to the star in light years is the number of years the light took to get here. Most of the stars we see at night are within a few hundred light years of Earth. The closest star other than the sun is about 4.2 light years away.
That depends on what you call "near".Within ten million miles . . . no starsWithin 100 million miles . . . one starWithin 26,450,000,000,000 miles (4.5 light years) . . . two starsWithin 100,000 light years . . . between 200 and 400 billion stars
Saturn does not have any stars. It is a planet within our solar system and does not produce its own light like stars do.

They are about 25.6 light years apart in the earths sky.
