we'll just be one giant hivemind
This is the recent image of the Andromeda galaxy, yes?They say that to display the full image you'd need about 60 something flat screen TVs. The amount of detail is incredible, and over 100 million stars are visible.

ITT:But seriously, not sure if all those grainy bits when zoomed in are just the camera quality or they're even more stars. We'll probably get more detail as we get better and better telescopes (IIRC a new one was made recently), and as the galaxy comes closer to it's merging.
The amount of stars in the Andromeda galaxy is mind-blowing (picture)
