Astronomers have identified what could be the largest structure ever observed in the known universe—a vast network of galaxy clusters and superclusters containing an astonishing 200 quadrillion solar ...

The largest known structure in the Universe may be even larger than the large we thought it was. A re-examination of the distribution of powerful space explosions suggests that the Hercules-Corona ...

The universe's largest structure, the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall, was already a challenge to explain with models of the universe due to its incredibly vast size — and now, using the most ...

Mapping the distribution of matter in the universe is an important quest for cosmology and astrophysics. There is a battle going on between the universe's accelerated expansion and gravity trying to ...

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. The structure is a large quasar group ...

This image shows five newly discovered superstructures. Quipu (red) is the largest structure ever found in the universe. The others are Shapley (blue), Serpens-Corona Borealis (green), Hercules ...

Astronomers have produced the most detailed map yet of dark matter, revealing the invisible framework that shaped the Universe long before stars and galaxies formed. Using powerful new observations ...

As the universe evolves, scientists expect large cosmic structures to grow at a certain rate: dense regions such as galaxy clusters would grow denser, while the void of space would grow emptier. As ...

A new JCAP study tests an “emulator” to reconstruct the large-scale structure of the cosmos If you think a galaxy is big, compare it to the size of the Universe: it’s just a tiny dot which, together ...
