Space consists of galaxies, stars, planets, black holes, etc. Many galaxies cluster up to form huge clusters of them, these clusters can also tend to form superclusters, there are estimated to be 1 - 2 trillion galaxies In-Universe. Our Milky Way galaxy lies in the Virgo cluster in the local group of galaxies. In the Milky Way galaxy lies our Solar System. 80% of the whole universe consists of dark matter whereas 20% of the universe consists of ordinary matter. All Stars and Galaxies that can be seen today make up 5% of the total universe, Rest of the 95% of the universe is not visible to us. We are extremely tiny compared to the universe , light is much slower than expected , and it can circle the earth in less than a second but it doesn't make it fast enough to compete
