Ever wanted to choose a star yourself? Well, the latest calculations, 70,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 choice, as it is the total amount of stars in our known universe, according to a study conducted by Australian astronomers.13
There are approximately ten times more stars than there are grains of sand on the beaches and deserts of the world. The amount - a week, followed by twenty-two-zero, or 70 quadrillion - the Australian National University astronomers who calculated. The International Association of Sydney astronomer Dr Simon Driver said at the meeting, the number of a strip of sky survey found. The team of the world's most powerful telescopes, the Anglo-Australian Observatory and the instruments of the Canary Islands was used.

The band nearly 10,000 galaxies to determine their detailed and bright calculated by measuring the number of stars. This number was multiplied by the sky coverage required number of similar sized strips, Driver said, and then multiplied again and again, until the edge of the visible universe. He said there is still more millions of stars in the universe, but the amount of kvadrilliós 70, which corresponds to modern telescopes can be made visible by the number of stars. The stars are the actual number may be infinite, he added.

"The universe is so vast that" there are lights which were not yet reached us, "recalls the words of The Age newspaper.

When asked about the enormous size that it can mean to you that there is intelligent life somewhere else, he responded, "The 70 quadrillion very large number, I think that is excluded in this vast area would have been no intelligent life elsewhere."
