However, according to the newest stars statistic, this number is only an estimate, and we are still unable to say for certain how many stars exist in our galaxy.
Things get even trickier when we try to calculate the number of stars in the universe.
When trying to calculate the approximate number, scientists first take the number of stars in our galaxy and multiply it by the number of observable galaxies in the universe, which is about 125 billion.
