Ever try to count the stars in the Sky? Good luck...

... because a team of Australian astronomers believe there are 70 sextillion of them according to their study. Thats 70 thousand million million stars or 10 times as many stars as there are grains of sand on all the world's beaches and deserts. And thats just the stars that are visible in some form from Earth!

When God made the universe, he made it BIG!

Sounds like the Finding Nemo movie poster/trailer. "There are 7.3 trillion fish in the ocean...." There's a disclaimer at the bottom of the poster that states they've never actually counted all the fish in the ocean and that the real number is probably much higher. Feel free to contact ? is you know the correct number. I chuckled to myself when I read it.

I love to try to count the stars. I usually give up after about 60 or so.

When I was a kid it seemed like the sky was absolutely filled with stars, I wonder where they all went because when I look at the night sky lately there are just a few there that are visible.
