The observable universe contains as many as an estimated 2 trillion galaxies [36] [37] [38] and, overall, as many as an estimated 10 24 stars [39] [40] – more stars (and, potentially, Earth-like planets) than all the grains of beach sand on planet Earth. [41] [42] [43] Other estimates are in the hundreds of billions rather than trillions.
The estimated time until the red dwarf star Proxima Centauri, the closest star to the Sun today, at a distance of 4.25 light-years, leaves the main sequence and becomes a white dwarf. [137] 10 13 (10 trillion) The estimated time of peak habitability in the universe, unless habitability around low-mass stars is suppressed. [138] 1.2×10 13 (12 ...
[1] [13] However, more recent models of its stellar evolution have suggested revision of the star's age to 13.7 billion years [14] or 12 billion years. [ 5 ] Dubbed the " Methuselah Star" by the popular press due to its age, [ 15 ] [ 16 ] the star must have formed soon after the Big Bang [ 1 ] and is one of the oldest stars known as of 2021. [ 5 ]

The list specifically excludes both white dwarfs – former stars that are now seen to be "dead" but radiating residual heat – and black holes – fragmentary remains of exploded stars which have gravitationally collapsed, even though accretion disks surrounding those black holes might generate heat or light exterior to the star's remains ...
The Milky Way is an example of a spiral galaxy. It is estimated that there are between 200 billion [7] (2 × 10 11) to 2 trillion [8] galaxies in the observable universe. Most galaxies are 1,000 to 100,000 parsecs in diameter (approximately 3,000 to 300,000 light years) and are separated by distances in the order of millions of parsecs (or ...
The Milky Way is approximately 890 billion to 1.54 trillion times the mass of the Sun in total (8.9 × 10 11 to 1.54 × 10 12 solar masses), [7] [8] [9] although stars and planets make up only a small part of this. Estimates of the mass of the Milky Way vary, depending upon the method and data used.
The company generated about $27 billion in revenue during its fiscal 2023 and is expected to top $120 billion in sales in 2024. Market cap: $3.29 trillion Stock price: $134.25
