The largest "structure" in the universe has been found!

Thanks to the behavior of gamma ray bursts, like the one pictured here, astronomers have identified an incredible amount energy over an incredibly large field of space.

The area is so big IT WOULD TAKE 10 BILLION LIGHT-YEARS TO CROSS!

In comparison, the previous record holder for largest structure, the Huge-LQG, or Large Quasar Group, was only 4 billion light-years in diameter.
