Laniakea Supercluster
Radius: 250 million light yearsOne Light Year = 5.9 trillion miles
How long would it take to travel a light-year at the speed of light?
Saying we were a space shuttle that travelled five miles per second, given that the speed of light travels at 186,282 miles per second, it would take about 37,200 human years to travel one light year.
Observable Universe
Radius: 46.508 billion light years93 Billion Light Years to Travel Across the Observable Universe
- and the observable universe might be a grain to sand compared to the rest of the universe or the multi verse._niko
- I honestly want to weep when I think about all of this_niko
- That's a LOT of space!grafician
- A human compared to the observable universe is less than one planck. A planck is smaller than an one atom.utopian
- The size of an atom, which is already about 100,000 times smaller than anything you can see with your unaided eye.utopian
- Each one of us is less significant than an atom. Our pollution of 8 Billion people are smaller smaller that an atom compared to the observable universe.utopian
- 1 grain of rice is millions times larger and more significant than the entire human population combined compared to the observable universe.utopian
- @utopian you're way off by orders of magnitude
let's just say our entire galaxy is less than a grain of sand at these distances and call it a daygrafician - IN OTHER NEWS: UK wants to get back to imperial measurements because fuck all
*FACE PALM*grafician - Also the entire population of 7.3B people can fit into NYC
https://waitbutwhy.c…grafician - Imagine not only the scale of what’s out there but also time, imagine millions of civilizations like ours millions of times more advanced billions of years ago_niko
- The Cambrian expansion was NOT an accident lol
https://en.wikipedia…grafician - Teh Uks does not want to get back to imperial. FaCE Plam. Only ignorant fuckwits or people pushing an agenda, or who don't fact check suggest that. SpasticNairn
- At the speed of light it would take a year to travel a light year for an external observer and essentially zero time for the person travelling, assuming instantNairn
- ...acceleration.Nairn
- @_niko - I stopped doing acid because Every Time I did it, I'd end up lost, thinking about infinity and its various scales and it fucked my head up too much.Nairn

Massive solar storm could cause global Internet blackout for months finds new research.
Solar storms are fascinating phenomena to observe. But the next time an eruption of mass and energy from the sun is likely to hit Earth, it could cause an Internet blackout lasting for months, according to new research.
A paper by Sangeetha Abdu Jyothi at the SIGCOMM 2021 data communication conference has postulated the likelihood of a solar storm hitting the planet. Jyothi, who is based at the University of California, Irvine, says that the storm could actually be a solar superstorm, comparing it to a black swan event.
