Summary
Details

The vastness of the Milky Way and its billions of galaxies

We live in a wondrous universe that extends beyond the reach of our eyes. It is adorned with billions of galaxies that shine like a garment stitched with stars. It takes billions of times the lifetime of our sun's light to reach that distance. This vastness is a wonder that is beyond the comprehension of the human mind.

A galaxy is formed by the union of many stars. Our galaxy is called the Milky Way. It contains billions of stars. Each of them has its own solar system. A solar system is a system that contains stars like the sun and planets like Earth. Our sun is one of the stars in the Milky Way. Our Earth is its ninth planet.
