Just wanted to say I love solar system talk, OPV.
Just for the audience here -How many solar systems
are there in our little Milky Way Galaxy?
''So far, astronomers have found more than
500 solar systems and are discovering new ones every year.
Given how many they have found in our own neighborhood of the
Milky Way galaxy, scientists estimate that there may be
tens of billions of
solar systems in our galaxy, perhaps even as
many as
100 billion.''
(That's solar systems in our Galaxy.)
