A galaxy was a massive, gravitationally bound assemblage of stars, an interstellar medium of gas and dust, and an unknown type of dark matter. Typical galaxies contained ten million to one trillion (10⁷ to 10¹²) stars, all orbiting a common center of gravity. Galaxies could have also contained a large number of multiple star systems and star clusters as well as black holes and various types of nebulae.

The Intergalactic Void was the space between the galaxies.
