That would be approximately 500,000,000,000,000,000 or 500 thousand trillion kilometers just to get from one end of the galaxy to the other, to give you an idea of the unimaginable sizes and distances involved in space. The galaxy is 28 million light years away from planet earth. Try figuring that out in kilometers!
