Interesting bits

I am writing a story on the conspiracy theory surrounding the 9/11 attacks. This research started after I chanced to see 'Loose Change' a 90 minute documentary on the subject. In the meantime a few amazing details to mull over.
  • The size of the entire universe is estimated at around 150 billion LYs
  • The observable universe is only 15 billion LYs in size
  • There are over 40 billion galaxies in the universe
  • Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is 50,000 LYs in size
  • There are almost 100 billion stars in the Milky Way
  • One LY = 9.385 trillion kilometers

Thank the Lord for he allows man to think and believe that the universe revolves around him and he is the centre on this universe.
