The BIGGEST objects in the Universe
The biggest objects in the universe — from Jupiter to structures spanning
billions of light-years. You won't believe how small our galaxy looks next
to the last entry on this list.
From solar system planets to galaxy superclusters, this video ranks
eighteen of the largest known objects in the universe into a tier list:
S, A, B, C, and D — ranked by real physical scale, not subjective "coolness."
In this video:
00:00 Intro
00:22 Ceres — largest object in the asteroid belt
01:35 Oort Cloud — the edge of the solar system
02:47 Jupiter — the largest planet in the solar system
03:59 Ganymede — the largest moon in the solar system
05:02 GQ Lupi b — an exoplanet larger than Jupiter
06:07 Saturn's Rings — 280,000 kilometers wide
07:23 UY Scuti — a red hypergiant star
08:28 Stephenson 2-18 — the current record holder among known stars
09:36 TON 618 — an ultramassive black hole
10:58 The water vapor cloud near quasar APM 08279+5255
12:04 Boötes Void — a void 330 million light-years across
13:06 The gamma-ray burst ring — a structure of nine bursts
14:05 El Gordo — a collision of two galaxy clusters
15:06 Laniakea — our home supercluster of galaxies
16:12 The CMB Cold Spot — an anomaly in the cosmic microwave background
17:14 The Sloan Great Wall — 1.38 billion light-years long
18:10 Quipu — the largest confirmed structure in the universe
19:14 Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall — 10 billion light-years, disputed
20:30 Outro
Some of these entries are genuinely disputed among astronomers (looking at
you, Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall), and the video explains exactly
why each object landed where it did on the tier list.
ТипаОбъяснено (roughly "KindaExplained") makes Russian-language science
explainer videos in a deliberately crude, hand-drawn style.
