Wow! What is the Milky Way you ask? The Milky Way is the name of the Galaxy that has 9 planets ,the Sun and billions of other stars in it. There are hundreds of billions of estimated Galaxies but over the years technology (having bigger and better equipment )has changed and now they are finding lots more of them.
