Astronomers used an array of telescopes to find the most massive radio jet in the early universe. The celestial object is hundreds of thousands of light-years long.

Researchers say they've discovered the largest known object in the universe, a galactic superstructure called Quipu.

The Quipu superstructure is enormous, spanning 1.4 billion light years – and it could violate one of our fundamental assumptions about the universe

Astronomers have discovered what they are calling the largest-known structure in the universe. Named "Quipu" after an Incan measuring system, the superstructure spans an astonishing 1.3 billion light-years across which is over 13,000 times the length of the Milky Way, according to a report in Live Science.

Quipu, named after the Incan system of knotted cords used for recording information, spans an astonishing 1.3 billion light-years-a distance over 13,000 times the length of the Milky Way.

Newly discovered Quipu, a superstructure in which galaxies group together in clusters and clusters of clusters, is the largest known structure in the universe in terms of length, scientists claim.

Solar masses are a unit of measurement used in astronomy to express the mass of other celestial objects in comparison to the mass of the Sun.

Astronomers discover Quipu, a colossal cosmic structure spanning 1.3 billion light-years, which could reshape our understanding of the universe's large-scale structure.
