Several thousand galaxies, each consisting of billions of stars, are in this small view. XDF (2012) view: Each light speck is a galaxy, some of which are as old as 13.2 billion years – the observable universe is estimated to contain 200 billion to 2 trillion galaxies

so if each galaxy have alien life

200 billion—4 trillion civilizations?

Hmm

ohh yea rip us humans

we have competition

More using your estimate, at that.

The estimate you mentioned, rather

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

@Ætos yes i want to be a scientist

Scientist or Astrophysicist?

well i want to be a astronomer

Ah

botanist

This will be an interesting server for you, then

entomologist

Stars, plants, or bugs, eh?

just alot of science for me

Nice variety of choices there

stars plants bugs animals

and marine life

Friend of mine wanted to be a marine biologist.

oh nice

ay

Haven’t spoken to him after we both moved a couple years back, we were still in high school.

but if i go to a college

that let you make your own major

i will mix every branch of science in one major

Not to rock your boat too much, but I advise against that.

Choose one and do a double minor, or something

Easier to do well if you have a primary focus.

rigg has come out as gay

so proud

O_o

What?

i wantedd to make a business at 1st

then and engineer

then work on technology

then sell weapons to the gov

and now become a scientist

As a computer engineering student, I can assure you my major is rather bland.
