What is the Universe made up of? All Matter! Only 4% of the Universe is made up of things we can see 96% of stuff we can see → Dark Matter Galaxies Systems of millions/billions of stars with gas and dust Held by gravitational attraction Astronomers estimate 100 billion galaxies in the observable universe

Our Galaxy Three main types of galaxies Elliptical: Smooth bright and featureless Spiral: Swirly Irregular: No distinct shape Which one is our galaxy?

Milky Way Galaxy Contains our Solar System Over 200 billion stars and enough dust and gas to make billions more Located 30,000 light-years away from the galactic center Our galaxy spins at 163 miles per sec
