Galaxies
I love this stuff. This picture had 50,000 galaxies in it, you can zoom in and see the shape of some of the closer ones - spirals and stuff. 80 years ago, we didn't even know that other galaxies existed outside our own. We have only observed a few other planetary systems in our own galaxy so far - there are billions more to be observed in the Milky Way alone - plus billions of other galaxies that have billions of stars thatmay have systems, if we ever progress that far technologically.
