    Consists of at least 15 clusters plus other interconnected filaments. It is the most massive galaxy supercluster discovered so far. [19] Big Ring (2024) 1,300,000,000 Made up of galaxy clusters. (Theoretical limit) 1,200,000,000 Structures larger than this size are incompatible with the cosmological principle according to all estimates. However ...

  3. Expansion of the universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_of_the_universe

    The universe could be infinite in extent or it could be finite; but the evidence that leads to the inflationary model of the early universe also implies that the "total universe" is much larger than the observable universe. Thus any edges or exotic geometries or topologies would not be directly observable, since light has not reached scales on ...

  4. List of largest stars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_stars

    Luminous red novae appear to expand extremely rapidly, reaching thousands to tens of thousands of solar radii within only a few months, significantly larger than the largest red supergiants. [ 2 ] Some studies use models that predict high-accreting Population III or Population I supermassive stars (SMSs) in the very early universe could have ...

    A Hubble Space Telescope image of the supergiant elliptical galaxy ESO 306-17. Supergiant elliptical galaxies are some of the largest galaxies known. The Condor Galaxy is a colossal spiral galaxy disturbed by the smaller IC 4970 .

    The cosmic web — ribbons of gas and dust tying galaxies together — are the largest structures in the Universe, and a new study shows they are growing hotter over time.. Utilizing a phenomenon ...

  7. Shape of the universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_of_the_universe

    Hence, it is unclear whether the observable universe matches the entire universe or is significantly smaller, though it is generally accepted that the universe is larger than the observable universe. The universe may be compact in some dimensions and not in others, similar to how a cuboid [citation needed] is longer in one dimension than the ...

  8. Astronomers surprised to find planet 'too massive for its star'

    www.aol.com/news/astronomers-surprised-planet...

    Our Milky Way galaxy's most common type of star is called a red dwarf - much smaller and less luminous than our sun. But the discovery of a planet at least 13 times Earth's mass orbiting very ...

  9. IC 1101 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IC_1101

    The galaxy has a very large halo of much lower intensity "diffuse light" extending to a radius of 600 kpc (2 million ly). [30] [verification needed] The authors of the study identifying the halo conclude that IC 1101 is "possibly one of the largest and most luminous galaxies in the universe". This view has been stated in several other papers as ...
