Theres more starz cuz the universe goes on forever and sand is limited.

Grains of sand any day. This is how it goes. Every star will have one planet. (at least). On every planet there will be, on average, say 1 million grains of sand. (The number 1 million is way too small in reality, but will suffice for my argument.) Now if there are a billion stars, there will be a million billion grains of sand.
Hence the no. of grains of sand is greater than the number of stars.
Proved.

The universe is not infinite, as other people are suggesting. But it is vast beyond our comprehension.

There are indeed more stars in the universe than grains of sand on Earth. Actually, there are millions of times more.

theres actually more galaxies in the universe than there are grains of sand on all the beaches in the entire world. each galaxy has a few billion stars so theres definatly more stars than grains of sand since theres more galaxies than grains of sand.

Every planet that has formed and has cooled to produce solid rock, has sand.
The universe is (according to present theories) infinite.
Theories also abound that 90 per cent of stars have planets and that 90 per cent of those planets have solid rock and therefore - sand.
Ergo - there are more grains of sand in the universe than stars.

Number of stars (planets and satellites etc. included) is always greater than the number of grains of sand by a quantity equal to the square root of the logarithm of their difference. This is because the rate of increase in the number of stars depends upon the quantum gravity as it exists at the centre of mass of the dark matter in the anti-universe, whereas the number of grains of sand is proportional to the square of the reciprocal of the deBroglie wavelength as determined by Lapalce's general solution to Boltzmann's differential equation, which yields the momentum of the earth sun system as the particular integral.

A full derivation of the above proof is given in one of the Dummies series of books, written and published especially for inquiring minds like yours. I think it's called "Questions Dummies Ask".

Grains of sand have a limit-the Universe doesn't seem to.

You think other planets don't have sand?
Even in just our solar system we have an almost-immeasurable number of grains of sand (i suppose the exact definition of sand would change this), and ONE(1) star.

I realize that the solar system is not a representative sample of a typical star system, but going with what data we have... sand is winning by a healthy margin.

To bring this down to earth (sorry), if you live in a city, you'll never see many stars because of all the street lighting. If you go to somewhere such as Cornwall on a clear, dark night, you'll see millions of stars. The first time you see them it'll blow your mind. You'll wonder 'why don't we see these in London?'

i think there are more stars, because stars keep exploding and creating more stars in the universe. but i don't think sand increase.......
