NASA estimates that there are between 100 and 200 billion galaxies in the observable universe.
This incredible number is based on observations and calculations, and while it’s an estimate, it gives us a sense of the vastness of the cosmos. It's important to remember that this number refers to the observable universe, which is the portion of the universe we can see from Earth. The actual universe may be much larger, perhaps even infinite, and could contain far more galaxies.
Here is a summary of the estimation:
| Source | Galaxy Count Estimate |
