So if I study one on these 800,000 galaxies per day, I will be studying for 2372 years.

Sounds like WAY too much work…

How many galaxies are there in the universe?

Mar 18, 2024 ... One such estimate says that there are between 100 and 200 billion

galaxies in the observable universe.

I’ll take that - as 150 billion until proven otherwise - thanks.

Update:

More late nights for you ... there are between 100-200 million observable galaxies.

Better enlist some serious AI assistance to finish before your grand kids pass on.

Bigfoot and Nessie are competing for the Hide-and-Seek Championship. You'll get a picture when 2nd place is declared.

Yeah, but somewhere out there is a cow that talks and actually tries to sell select cuts of itself at a famed restaurant at the end of the universe.

Nah. I’ll just lay on a blanket on the lawn at night and admire the stars.
Forget this ‘studying the cosmos’ nonsense.
Someone else can do it…

Both of my slide rules are clean and anxious to start using this data...

"The telescope is clearly pointed in the wrong direction..."

Surely someone pointed James Webb to Fort Lauderdale Beach, Florida for some Earth bound life on the beach.
