Astronomers figure that there are 200 to 400 billion stars in our galactic neighborhood , the Milky Way . I guess that someone tried to count them in thisfully - zoomable , ultra - high - definition 800,000 - persona mosaicand arrive well-worn around 296,351,284,702 .
The 800,000 - image mosaic wasassembled by NASA last yearfrom Spitzer Space Telescope photographs . But look at a 120 - feet image is hard unless you are in front of a print copy . That ’s why someone has put them all together into a fully - zoomable panorama that you may enjoyhere . [ Thanks Joe ! ]
