Discovered through gamma-ray burst mapping. Largest-known regular formation in the observable universe. [8] Huge-LQG (2012–2013) 4,000,000,000 [9] [10] [11] Decoupling of 73 quasars. Largest-known large quasar group and the first structure found to exceed 3 billion light-years. "Giant Arc" (2021) 3,300,000,000 [12] Located 9.2 billion light ...
On January 11, 2013, the discovery of the Huge-LQG was announced by the University of Central Lancashire, as the largest known structure in the universe by that time.It is composed of 74 quasars and has a minimum diameter of 1.4 billion light-years, but over 4 billion light-years at its widest point.

It possesses a diffuse core which is the largest core of any galaxy known to date, [5] and contains a supermassive black hole, one of the largest discovered. [5] IC 1101 is located at 354.0 megaparsecs (1.15 billion light-years) from Earth. It was discovered on 19 June 1790, by the German-British astronomer William Herschel. [6]
Widely recognised as being among the largest known stars, [21] radius decreased to ~500 R ☉ during the 2020 great dimming event. [75] R Horologii: 630 [60] L/T eff: A red giant star with one of the largest ranges in brightness known of stars in the night sky visible to the unaided eye. Despite its large radius, it is less massive than the Sun.
In cosmology, galaxy filaments are the largest known structures in the universe, consisting of walls of galactic superclusters.These massive, thread-like formations can commonly reach 50 to 80 megaparsecs (160 to 260 megalight-years)—with the largest found to date being the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall at around 3 gigaparsecs (9.8 Gly) in length—and form the boundaries between voids ...
