  2. Hubble volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble_volume

    The Hubble volume is approximately equal to 10 31 cubic light years (or about 10 79 cubic meters). The proper radius of a Hubble sphere (known as the Hubble radius or the Hubble length) is /, where is the speed of light and is the Hubble constant. The surface of a Hubble sphere is called the microphysical horizon, [2] the Hubble surface, or the ...

  3. Cosmological horizon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_horizon

    Hubble radius, Hubble sphere (not to be confused with a Hubble bubble), Hubble volume, or Hubble horizon is a conceptual horizon defining the boundary between particles that are moving slower and faster than the speed of light relative to an observer at one given time. Note that this does not mean the particle is unobservable; the light from ...

  4. Observable universe - Wikipedia

    Since the universe has been expanding for 13.8 billion years, the comoving distance (radius) is now about 46.6 billion light-years. Thus, volume (⁠ 4 / 3 ⁠ πr 3) equals 3.58 × 10 80 m 3 and the mass of ordinary matter equals density (4.08 × 10 −28 kg/m 3) times volume (3.58 × 10 80 m 3) or 1.46 × 10 53 kg.

    For the small outer irregular moons of Uranus, such as Sycorax, which were not discovered by the Voyager 2 flyby, even different NASA web pages, such as the National Space Science Data Center [6] and JPL Solar System Dynamics, [5] give somewhat contradictory size and albedo estimates depending on which research paper is being cited.

  6. Cosmic distance ladder - Wikipedia

    The Earth's orbit is known with an absolute precision of a few meters and a relative precision of a few parts in 100 billion (1 × 10 −11). Historically, observations of Venus transits were crucial in determining the AU; in the first half of the 20th century, observations of asteroids were also important.

  9. Hubble's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubble's_law

    The Hubble length or Hubble distance is a unit of distance in cosmology, defined as cH −1 — the speed of light multiplied by the Hubble time. It is equivalent to 4,420 million parsecs or 14.4 billion light years. (The numerical value of the Hubble length in light years is, by definition, equal to that of the Hubble time in years.)
