Billion upon billions of stars. All the big stars in this picture are foreground stars in our own galaxy and alot of other galaxys in the background. Their picture would look much the same if someone in that galaxy was looking at us, one of those tiny points of glowing stars being their "Sun".

Great photo! To think of everything that could be out there that we don't know anything about is mind-numbing. Pictures like this just confirm that we still have a lot to learn. Thanks.
