That those are all galaxies is simply not fully comprehensible to me, which is part of the attraction of such otherwise “useless” images.

It’s not as if any of it is within reach or will be within a foreseeable future. To conquer space-time we probably couldn’t be corporeal.

Maybe that’s what’s to learn in the Millennium.

I'm convinced that we are not alone...

Choosing the midpoints of the data estimates, there are 200 billion stars in our galaxy...

From the JWST and Hubble data, there are, in the patch of observed sky, at least 10,000 galaxies...

So, assuming a star count of this sky patch similar to our galaxy, there are 200 billion stars in each of 10,000 galaxies...

200,000,000,000 x 10,000 = 2 x 1015 stars out there...

I'll have to get out one of my slide rules, do a hand count of the number of galaxies in the sky patch, and double-check that number...
