Volume of space


The number of stars X in the given volume of space can be considered as a Poisson random variable. The density in the Milky Way Galaxy is one star per 16 cubic light years. What is the probability that there will be more than one star in 16 cubic light years? Using the information given, how many cubic light years of space must be studied so that the probability of two or more stars exceeds 0.90?
