You know H and Valleyboy, it actually scares me. These are just the stars in our Galaxy and as it states there can be thousands of such galaxies. The actual factor that I cannot comprehend, and therefore find scary is - INFINITY.

Very interesting, when I was out in Turkey last a friend loaned me the complete series of Wonders of the Solar System by Professor Brian Cox, a must see, I think it is on TV at the moment, very very interesting and informative.
YouTube Professor Brian Cox his narratives are compelling and easy to follow.
