There are an estimated 130 billion galaxies, and most all of them are undiscovered since we have only mapped a very tiny fraction of the whole universe. As we look further in space, we see back in time. On the outskirts of the universe, we can see galaxies with quasars, some of the first galaxies, their quasars in their centers have probably burned out by now and they are just regular galaxies, but we see them as they were billions of years ago with their quasars burning, their light is just now getting to us.

Why do they think there are hundreds of thousands of galaxies?

They (scientists) think there are hundreds of thousands of galaxies because the universe is limitless so there may be billions of galaxies!


Are there anymore planets outside the solar system?

There are thousands and thousands of other planets outside of our solar system, along with many other galaxies, universes, and planetoids, and possibly other forms of life.


Will you move into another galaxy?

Not in the near future. Other galaxies are hundreds of thousands, or millions, of light-years away; travelling at the speed of light, it would thus take millions of years to travel to most galaxies; travelling at a lower speed would, of course, take longer.Not in the near future.

How likely is it that life exists in other parts of the universe?

Very likely, their are thousands maybe even millions of planets in the galaxy that are habitable, than their are trillions of galaxies.


What are the other galaxies accept Milky Way?

The observable Universe has at least a hundred billion galaxies. The galaxies closest to us are part of the so-called "Local Group" (that is, the group that includes our galaxy); this Local Group includes our own galaxy (i.e., the Milky Way), the Andromeda Galaxy, the Triangulum Galaxy, and about 50 dwarf galaxies such as the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud. Then, of course, there are hundreds or thousands of galaxies "near-by" as distances between galaxies go, but outside of our Local Group.


Are there other galaxies in your universe?

there is only 1 universe and their is billions of galaxies in it !


What planets have galaxies?

None. Galaxies on the other hand do contain planets

What do you expect find in other galaxies?

spiral,elliptical,irregular galaxies


Do you think humans will one day see other worlds beyond our galaxy Do you think it's possible to leave our solar system and explore other galaxies and see other planets or life forms big or small?

Yes. Scientists haven't been able to explore other galaxies. I believe that there is life in other galaxies just like Earth. but how do they explore galaxies? i mean how do they know there are other galaxies? do they have any proof of lik=fe on other galaxies? ^^^^^^^


What is between the galaxies?

There's nothing between the galaxies. It's just other galaxies that float around the universe.


Why galaxies look faint from earth?

Because they're hundreds of thousands of light years away from Earth.
