Scientists have discovered a massive ring-shaped structure with a diameter of approximately 1.3 billion light-years; They say it is so big that it makes it difficult to understand the universe. Called the Great Ring, this ultra-massive structure – with a circumference of around four billion light-years – was observed in the distant universe some 9.2… Read More »
