== Population ==

As of January 1, 3312, the galaxy's total [[human]] population (based on system population data) is '''10,170,147,010,813''' (10.1 trillion people). The galaxy's total commodities market stock in tonnes is '''932,024,185,180'''.<ref>[https://www.edsm.net/ Elite Dangerous Star Map: Statistics (January 1, 3312)]</ref><ref name="5th">[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/celebrating-5-years-of-elite-dangerous.533151/ Frontier Forums: Celebrating 5 years of Elite Dangerous!]</ref> Most humans live in [[Star system|star systems]] with [[Station|stations]] and [[Settlement|settlements]] in the [[Core Systems]] and [[Colonia]].

=== Aliens ===

There are a few sapient alien [[species]]. The insectoid [[Thargoids]] are several millions of years old.<ref>[https://canonn.science/codex/guardians-codex/ Canonn Research: Guardians Codex 3/28 : Thargoid Log - Unsuccessful Truce]</ref> There are [[Ancient Ruins]] of the extinct humanoid [[Guardians]]. They created the robotic [[Construct|Constructs]] 1 to 2 million years ago.<ref>[https://canonn.science/codex/guardians-codex/ 6/28 : Civil War Log – Dawn of the Construct]</ref> There are other non-sapient species in the lore of the [[Elite series]], but they have not been found in ED. There are many types of alien flora on planetary bodies.

==== Galactic Disk ====

The galactic disk is the flat region that extends outward from the dense central bulge (center) to the sparse outer edge. The vast majority of star systems are located there including [[Sol]]. The spiral arms with lots of stars, gas and dust. The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy, because the spiral arms are attached to the central bar of stars in the core. The 2 major spiral arms are the Scutum-Centaurus Arm ([[Inner Scutum-Centaurus Arm]] and [[Outer Scutum-Centaurus Arm]]), and the [[Perseus Arm]]. Minor-arms are the [[Orion-Cygnus Arm]], [[Sagittarius-Carina Arm]], [[Outer Arm]] and [[Norma Arm]].

The online galaxy of ~~'''~~[http://elite.frontier.co.uk/ ~~E]'''[http://elite.frontier.co.uk/ lite~~ Dangerou'''s'''] is a shared universe maintained by a central server. All of the meta data for the galaxy is shared between players on all platforms. This includes the galaxy itself as well as transient information like economies. A player's actions could influence the development of the galaxy, without necessarily having to play multiplayer.
