Racoon Posted July 30, 2006 Report Posted July 30, 2006 OK, thats what got me interested in looking at this article.. a Giant Blob. :lol: Does anyone else find this interesting? :confused: Newfound blob is biggest thing in universeStructure is 200 million light-years wide, made up of galaxies and gas Updated: 1:34 p.m. PT July 27, 2006An enormous amoeba-like structure 200 million light-years wide and made up of galaxies and large bubbles of gas is the largest known object in the universe, scientists say. The galaxies and gas bubbles, called Lyman alpha blobs, are aligned along three curvy filaments that formed about 2 billion years after the universe exploded into existence after the theoretical Big Bang. The filaments were recently seen using the Subaru and Keck telescopes on Mauna Kea.
