A galaxy is a huge collection of gas, dust, and billions of stars and

The arrow points to the location of our solar system in the Milky Way.
Our solar system is just a very small dot in this illustration of the Milky Way.
It takes light from the Sun 8.3 minutes to reach our planet but it takes that
same light more than 100,000 years to travel from one side of the Milky Way
to the other. That’s approximately 587,458,915,000,000,000 miles! 

This 11 minute video shows the distances inside our solar system, the Milky Way and the visible Universe.
