Galaxies - Clusters, Walls, Filaments, and Superclusters
Spacey jam, builds as the larger structures are revealed.
Andromeda Galaxy (similar to our Milky Way) ---
152,000 light-years diameter (8.93 x 10^17 miles)
2.5 million light years from Earth
Virgo Supercluster---
Concentration of galaxies containing the Virgo Cluster, Local Group (including Milky Way), and other galaxies.
110 million light years in diameter (6.47 x 10^20 miles)
BOSS Great Wall ---
1 billion light years in diameter
has a total mass approximately 10,000 times the Milky Way galaxy.
Sloan Great Wall---
1.37 billion light-years (1.30×10^25 meters) in length
about one billion light years from Earth
King Ghidorah Supercluster---
(massive supercluster)
400 Megaparsecs = 1.3 billion light years in length
Big Ring and Giant Arc---
both go beyond the current theoretical size limit of these structures.
Big Ring has a diameter of about 1.3 bn light years
more than 9 bn light years from Earth
The Giant Arc, which spans an estimated 3.3 bn light years,
9.2 bn light yrs away
