A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

That really depends on what you count as a Galaxy. If any cluster of stars that is gravitationally bound together counts, then there is a tiny (10,000 stars) galaxy that is orbiting The Milky Way that's only about 10,000 light years away from us, which happens to be closer than the center of our own galaxy.
