        With some gross oversimplification, about 450 billions sun sized spheres could fit in a sphere with plutos orbit as the diameter.

          Considering that the Milky Way’s central black hole, Sagittarius A*, is only about five million solar masses, then that would likely have a devastating effect on the entire local group of galaxies.

          Pluto’s orbit is really eccentric, but it’s usually about 5.5 light hours from the sun. My understanding is that the central core would form a new black hole quite quickly and most of the mass outside the event horizon would be drawn into a tight orbit, being accelerated to near-light speed and be ejected as relativistic jets from the ‘poles’ of the new black hole.

          It would be an exciting few days, for sure. Not that ‘days’ would have much meaning when what remains of the earth make an orbit every few seconds.

            Estimated to be between 100 and 400 billion… pretty vague though.

            TIL that while there is more sand on earth then stars in our galaxy, there are vastly more stars in the universe then grains of sand on earth.

            But there might be more grains of salt on earth (including dissolved in the ocean) then stars in the universe.

    Until plant X is found and it turns out it cannot be really classified as a planet, but some type of super dim dead star.
