It is not known how much further the wall extends due to the light absorption in the plane of the Milky Way galaxy where Earth is located. The gas and dust from the Milky Way (known as the Zone of Avoidance ) obscure the view of astronomers and have so far made it impossible to determine if the wall ends or continues on further than they can ...
A projection of the South Pole Wall in celestial coordinates. The South Pole Wall (SPW or The South Pole Wall) is a massive cosmic structure formed by a giant wall of galaxies (a galaxy filament) that extends across at least 1.37 billion light-years of space, the nearest light (and consequently part) [a] of which is aged about half a billion light-years.
The Sloan Great Wall is between 1.8–2.7 times longer than the CfA2 Great Wall of galaxies (discovered by Margaret Geller and John Huchra of Harvard University in 1989). [2] It also contains several galactic superclusters, the largest and richest of which is named SCl 126. This is located in the highest density region of the structure. [3] [4]
The BOSS Great Wall is one of the largest superstructures in the observable universe, [2] though there are even larger structures known. This figure shows the superclusters of the BOSS Great Wall, on Cartesian coordinates. The large complex has a mean redshift of z ~ 0.47 (z times Hubble length ≈ 6.8 billion light years). [1]
The Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall (HCB) [1] [5] or simply the Great Wall [6] is a galaxy filament that is the largest known structure in the observable universe, measuring approximately 10 billion light-years in length (the observable universe is about 93 billion light-years in diameter).
The sale process, which begins on Wednesday, will include the Cliffside Gas Plant at 13301 Brickplant Road. The plant, which is on 8.108 acres of leased land, includes a range of primary and ...
The Crude Helium Enrichment Unit in the Cliffside Gas Field. Remnants of the Amarillo Helium Plant in 2015. The National Helium Reserve, also known as the Federal Helium Reserve, is a strategic reserve of the United States, which once held over 1 billion cubic meters (about 170,000,000 kg) [a] of helium gas.
A Mega-Shipyard is a massive shipyard in orbit of a star, capable of producing ships much faster than average shipyards. The Aetherophasic Engine is a megastructure built by crisis aspirants, capable of destroying the entire galaxy as a side-product of allowing the race which constructed it to ascend to the "Shroud", an alternate dimension in ...
