BY STRUCTURE THEY MEAN GROUP OF STARS THAT ARE RELATIVELY CLOSE TOGETHER COMPARED TO OTHER STELLAR GROUPINGS, BROTHER! THE TITLE IS INTENTIONALLY SENSATIONAL AND MISLEADING, DUDE!

Dont be silly. We should call on scientists to be more humble.

But friend humble doesn't get you grants. Implying something 'may' be groundbreaking leads to more funding to see if it's groundbreaking. If it wasn't for this train of thought we wouldn't even be able to talk through these computers, which were created from unhumble scientists who wondered why quantum particles acted so funny.

So yes friend I will continue be silly :popcorn:

Largest Structure In Universe, Large Quasar Group, Challenges Cosmological Principle

Astronomers have discovered the largest known structure in the universe, a clump of active galactic cores that stretches 4 billion light-years from end to end.

:hmmbama:
To put that mind-boggling size into perspective, the disk of the Milky Way galaxy — home of Earth's solar system — is about 100,000 light-years wide. And the Milky Way is separated from its nearest galactic neighbor, Andromeda, by about 2.5 million light-years.

:heh::welldayum:




:mindblown:
