Images like these demonstrate how incredibly small we are in the universe and allow astronomers to estimate, via extrapolation, the total number of galaxies across the entire observable Universe. A couple of years ago, astronomers came to the startling realization that the Universe contains up to 10 to 20 times more galaxies than previously thought. The current best guess is that the universe contains somewhere between one and two trillion galaxies. This means the universe is absolutely packed with stars, somewhere on the order of 700 sextillion stars &#8212; that\u2019s seven followed by 23 zeros. This goes as a fantastic testimony of God in His creative power.\u00a0 And this is just within the observable Universe. Anything beyond the cosmological horizon, the most distant light that reaches Earth, is still unknown to us, so it\u2019s impossible to know the true figure. This demonstrates the absolute power of God in this creative ability.\u00a0 The images of just the number of galaxies is mind-bogglingly!\u00a0 We read in the Torah in the creation account in <em><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Bereshit \/ Genesis 1<\/span><\/em>, it says<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Bereshit \/ Genesis 1:1-5<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">\u05d0 \u05d1\u05bc\u05b0\u05e8\u05b5\u05d0\u05e9\u05c1\u05b4\u05d9\u05ea \u05d1\u05bc\u05b8\u05e8\u05b8\u05d0 \u05d0\u05b1\u05dc\u05b9\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d0\u05b5\u05ea \u05d4\u05b7\u05e9\u05bc\u05c1\u05b8\u05de\u05b7\u05d9\u05b4\u05dd \u05d5\u05b0\u05d0\u05b5\u05ea \u05d4\u05b8\u05d0\u05b8\u05e8\u05b6\u05e5: \u05d1 \u05d5\u05b0\u05d4\u05b8\u05d0\u05b8\u05e8\u05b6\u05e5 \u05d4\u05b8\u05d9\u05b0\u05ea\u05b8\u05d4 \u05ea\u05b9\u05d4\u05d5\u05bc \u05d5\u05b8\u05d1\u05b9\u05d4\u05d5\u05bc \u05d5\u05b0\u05d7\u05e9\u05c1\u05b6\u05da\u05b0 \u05e2\u05b7\u05dc-\u05e4\u05bc\u05b0\u05e0\u05b5\u05d9 \u05ea\u05b0\u05d4\u05d5\u05b9\u05dd \u05d5\u05b0\u05e8\u05d5\u05bc\u05d7\u05b7 \u05d0\u05b1\u05dc\u05b9\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05de\u05b0\u05e8\u05b7\u05d7\u05b6\u05e4\u05b6\u05ea \u05e2\u05b7\u05dc-\u05e4\u05bc\u05b0\u05e0\u05b5\u05d9 \u05d4\u05b7\u05de\u05bc\u05b8\u05d9\u05b4\u05dd: \u05d2 \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05bc\u05b9\u05d0\u05de\u05b6\u05e8 \u05d0\u05b1\u05dc\u05b9\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9-\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05e8 \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9-\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05e8: \u05d3 \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05bc\u05b7\u05e8\u05b0\u05d0 \u05d0\u05b1\u05dc\u05b9\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d0\u05b6\u05ea-\u05d4\u05b8\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05e8 \u05db\u05bc\u05b4\u05d9-\u05d8\u05d5\u05b9\u05d1 \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05bc\u05b7\u05d1\u05b0\u05d3\u05bc\u05b5\u05dc \u05d0\u05b1\u05dc\u05b9\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd \u05d1\u05bc\u05b5\u05d9\u05df \u05d4\u05b8\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05e8 \u05d5\u05bc\u05d1\u05b5\u05d9\u05df \u05d4\u05b7\u05d7\u05b9\u05e9\u05c1\u05b6\u05da\u05b0: \u05d4 \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05bc\u05b4\u05e7\u05b0\u05e8\u05b8\u05d0 \u05d0\u05b1\u05dc\u05b9\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9\u05dd | \u05dc\u05b8\u05d0\u05d5\u05b9\u05e8 \u05d9\u05d5\u05b9\u05dd \u05d5\u05b0\u05dc\u05b7\u05d7\u05b9\u05e9\u05c1\u05b6\u05da\u05b0 \u05e7\u05b8\u05e8\u05b8\u05d0 \u05dc\u05b8\u05d9\u05b0\u05dc\u05b8\u05d4 \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9-\u05e2\u05b6\u05e8\u05b6\u05d1 \u05d5\u05b7\u05d9\u05b0\u05d4\u05b4\u05d9-\u05d1\u05b9\u05e7\u05b6\u05e8 \u05d9\u05d5\u05b9\u05dd \u05d0\u05b6\u05d7\u05b8\u05d3:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><em>1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 1:2 The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters. 1:3 Then God said, \u2018Let there be light\u2019; and there was light. 1:4 God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.<\/em> 1:5 God called the light day, and the darkness He called night.
