The universe or cosmos contains everything that exists. The universe is believed to “vibrate” out of “strings.” According to Dan Falk, “Each string is as small compared to an atom as an atom is compared to the solar system.” The average galaxy contains about 200 billion (200,000 million) stars. Our Milky Way Galaxy is one of hundreds of billions of galaxies in the universe. As you stare out at the stars and the vastness of the night sky, ponder the concept of infinity. Infinity means no beginning and no end. Infinity goes smaller than you can imagine. Infinity is larger than you can conceive.
