The largest known galaxy was just discovered, and you won’t believe how massive it is
Scientists have discovered the largest known galaxy to man and they believe it has a supermassive black hole at the center.

Scientists have discovered the largest known galaxy ever. The new discovery is located around 3 billion light-years away. The galaxy, which is named Alcyoneus, is a giant radio galaxy. The galaxy is roughly 16.3 million light-years long.
So, that galaxy is (fucked if I know if I got the riffmatic right ) 154,850,000,000,000,000,000 kms long and it's 28,500,000,000,000,000,000 kms away from us (28.5 trillion billion) . Google told me that a light year is 9.5 trillion kms, course it depends on if you are using 'merican trillions or proper ingerlish trillions.
