With a trillion or more stars in that galaxy, the ones you can see must be a very tiny fraction of the ones actually there.
To: MtnClimber
Hmm, I think there is a star missing at [78.8,39.4]. ;-)

Prudent for me to use my thumbs on my phone screen to expand the photo?

Fabulous!! Sort of amazing to be able to see individual stars in another galaxy, are there any other cases of that?

Bwa ha. That’s like me listening to a piece of classical music and saying “Ah, they missed a note there.”
To: MtnClimber
Thank You for posting... how humbling are the works of God.

For a real mind blower put your cursor on the darkest part of that pic, the upper right corner, and scroll in as far as you can go.
It might be relatively dark there but it’s far from ‘empty.’

There is only one direction...UP.
No 360 degrees around the Earth stars. Straight up.
Turn it 90 degrees left/counterclockwise and consider it.
And even after people are shown they'll still not comprehend what is being shown them.
