Final answer:

A starburst galaxy forms about a hundred more stars than the Milky Way galaxy in one year.

Step-by-step explanation:

A starburst galaxy forms about a hundred more stars than the Milky Way galaxy in one year.

According to the information provided, within a 1000-light-year sphere, we find about ten million stars in the Milky Way. However, a starburst galaxy is known to have a much higher star formation rate compared to the Milky Way.
