Interesting Fact; More Trees Than Stars?
Recent scientific estimates suggest that our planet hosts about 3 trillion trees —a number far greater than many realize. To put that into perspective, the Milky Way galaxy, which contains billions of stars, is estimated to have between 100 billion and 400 billion stars . This means Earth alone has roughly 7 times more trees than stars in our entire galaxy. Considering how vast and star-studded the Milky Way appears, this fact challenges our usual sense of scale and highlights the incredible abundance of life right here on Earth. Trees are essential for producing oxygen, storing carbon, and supporting ecosystems. This staggering number makes it clear how important it is to protect and preserve our forests.
