When we look up at the "heavens" with the naked eye, we have our own personalized "starry night", courtesy of, and unique to our own, galaxy.

We don't see the individual stars from other galaxies. We barely can even see other galaxies with the naked eye. But once technology shows us that the sky is filled with galaxies, invisible to the unassisted eye, it blows the mind away. Every galaxy has it's own unique "starry night".

Astonishingly, some have projected that there are more galaxies in the universe than stars in our Milky Way galaxy. ~d
