Tony Darnell has written and produced a beautiful, cosmic documentary. And it would have been so much better. If Tony, wasn't as close to his, cheap, Taiwanese, cardioid, condenser microphone. And if he had engaged the low-cut, filter. On the microphone. If it had one? On the mixer. Or in the software. In postproduction. And some proper, dynamic range limiting. Ya know. Like, 12 or, 20, to 1. Slamming about 10 DB of, gain reduction. And then some gentle downward expansion. To take any background noise or room tone that ain't so great, out.
Ya see Tony. You're not really the after midnight DJ here. Ya made it sound like college radio. You write and produce so well. But ya don't have to listen to me. I'm just a retired nobody. That did, major national commercials and coast-to-coast major news events. For over 20 years. And ya have to make things sound a certain way. If you really want to be taken seriously? That's a well read narration track. That is not a well presented narration track. Ya kind of have to be an audio engineer. To get that right. And I might imagine? Your next documentary will sound absolutely fabulous?
what he uses is good enough for what he does.ask Fraser Cain or Skylias or Paul Matt Sutter.... get a life and dont comment, fuckwit
I think he sounds just fine :-)
When someone obsesses over form instead of content.... Besides I was never bothered by the sound, it is more than good enough, with beautiful music imo. And a very good narration with excellent rhythm and timing.
and content is the key here
RemyRAD You Sir,are a tool.
How many civilizations have come and gone in IC 1101
Trillions
+digitalsketchguy ...Could be trillions. Or, NONE. No life was created.
+digitalsketchguy We will never know. But it's amazing to think there could have been so many in such a large galaxy.
+digitalsketchguy If we use the rarity of Earth and what it takes for us to be created... at least 5.
+digitalsketchguy Wouldn't it be something that in the gigantic life of IC 1101, that there was never any life. Maybe it always a dead galaxy.
Im watching this while on the toilet...
i feel so insignificant.

Lmao! You feel so insignificant because you are insignificant...lol.
+Cosmik Debris your username fits the video topic.
+Pikmonster
We're all "cosmik debris", the rest of ancient supernovae, but believe it or not, my nick has nothing to do with the cosmos.
***** Care to summarize it?
Impossible to imagine something so incredibly huge.

Imagine it from reverse perspective, just imagine zooming in on galaxy.

That's what she said
Yes it is.
@Zenme Yangzi ...but she was looking @ Uranus!
I don't know, I've seen your mother.
The way he talks about this 'dying galaxy' I half expected him to start asking for donations to save it.... "For less than a cup of coffee per day, you too can help IC1101 avoid oblivion..."
+Joshua Pace And I bet people would actually send money !!
Shame on you Joshua
Joshua Pace is that a star bucks coffee or a mc Donald's cheapo
I've donated my 50p to save this galaxy.
Let It Go, Let It Go
When he said "this galaxy is dying a slow death" i was waiting for him to say "by donating only 5$ you can save this galaxy".
الروح العربية lol
GoFundMe for IC 1101?
every few billion years, galaxies die needlessly by lack of planets and suns. By donating just a few planets and suns could save the life of a galaxy. Thank you
Sooo many potential aliens in our universe. Yet I'm still single 😭
+Preston La Vallee maybe go outside and try to ask someone out? or just sit there and watch videos
Well hell there is something wrong with you

I’m 4 years late to tell you you’re ugly

So this galaxy, IC 1101, is just the a very good agar.io player.
The narrator has the perfect voice for me to sleep.
Perfect ASMR voice then!
His voice reminds me of Neil deGrasse Tyson
@@MrBoobieMan69 it is

was it only me or did anyone here felt like just crying after watching this video. i dont know why but sometimes i just wanna cry. i just get so overwhelmed by knowing that we as human are nothing compared to the vastness of our universe. i wish i could just get on a spaceship and travel all over the universe. i want to live for billions of year so that i could see this wonderfull universe of ours. it just makes me so sad to know that in just 100 years from now i will just perish from this universe and no one will remember me.
No, it is just you, who is crying.
You look at that in the wrong way,you are crying that you are not experiencing the universe when in truth you are experiencing a very special part of it,you are alive,something that is incredibly rare in the universe,not only that you are also an intelligent life form,a human with the abillity to think,imagine and wonder.intelligent life are extreamly rare in the universe,I bet that if you will be in all life supporting planets you will see that almost all life are not intelligent.Not only you are experiencing the universe,you are infact the universe,the atoms you are made of can be traced back to the big bang,an expension from a singualrty that created our universe,and you will have impact on the universe,everything you do is and always will happen in the spacetime continuum and after you will die,well I don't know tbh,I am an atheist but I don't know if our conciousness is retained after our biological body dies,it might,it might not,its still doesn't important because you are the way of the universe of experiencing one its most facsinating parts and you should be thankfull for that.
Name no dear. i m not crying because i am not experiencing our universe. i feel like crying because i get this strange feelings whenever i think about the universe. i just dont know how to describe what i feel. maybe because i dont know how to put my feelings into words. english is not my first language, but even if i could say what i feel in my first language (urdu) i dont think i will be able to express my feelings. i feel something strange. its not because i feel sad and want to cry. its not sadness. its something else which makes me want to cry.
Fawad Amin
Like a stroke or an aneurysm?
Fawad Amin I agree with you Fawad Amin. It is good that you open up and let people know how you feel. The universe is large and we may never be able to explore it. Even our planet hasn't been fully explored and discovered!!
I think we need to focus on the now and who surrounds our lives. Lets make life on this planet better for ourselves and the future generations. Thats what living is about. Explore your potential Fawad and you will see and experience so much. God Bless
Man, that thing makes the milky way look tiny. Can you imagine all the habitable planets, and all the (potential) diversity of life in it?
the answer is "no. no you cannot."
***** You couldn't imagine them all one after the other...
i dont think it has that much diversity of life because most of it's stars are old and red dwarfs make it's planets somewhat unhabitable due to their radiation bursts. Probably more than milky way and andromeda and triangulum combined but not in life per star ratio
IC 1101 been lifting
Plat inum Goddamnit. 😂
And eating
by whom?
So IC 1101 lifts other galaxies and relies on cannibalism for food?
The largest galaxy is the Note 5
I like and agree
Really LOL 😂

+Willian Peng
That's comedy gold right there.
Actually it's the 390g chocolate bar.
too bad its impossible in the current date to travel or even dream about travelling there, who knows what planets we may find there, perhaps some species, perhaps some creatures somewhere on a planet in IC1101 galaxy watching metube on their INTERNET EXPLORER learning about Milky Way and how they are the only intelligent species in the world or wait perhaps they saw humans with their advanced telescopes...
hahaha i always fantasize like this :D i love it
but really, who knows this might actually be true :D
It's very likely it's very advanced compared to civilizations in our galaxy simply due to the large number of galaxies it would have merged with and the probable interaction of advanced species from various absorbed galaxies, assuming they have found a way to travel faster than the speed of light.
In the milkyway galaxy, out of the say 100-200 billion stars, at least 9 billion stars have solar systems and planets in similar conditions to ours, aka Life-Like. (Can't remember the source sorry folks =), its in a science video out there somewhere's =))
if they use internet explorer they would be BLOWN AWAY if we´d show them chrome or mozilla....same as humanity when they discovered fire
Hey, guess what? It is possible. There is a space simulator game. It is "Space Engine" It's FREE. and it just had an update yesterday, its fuckin amazing. You can go to any galaxy, to any star, to any planet, to any moon, any asteroid. Ang guess what? It is alllll free roam. With amazing graphics. You press F3 in game to search for stuff. Just type IC 1101. and click "Go to". And there you go. Here's the link bro: en.spaceengine.org
IC 1101 is the Star Wars galaxy.

Why flat earthers keep disliking these videos?
Because thats there life, thy must be so unlucky haha
Wonder if this galaxy is flat? ;)

I believe the title should say "The Largest KNOWN Galaxy in the Universe." Imagine this we view them in just a patch of sky and in that patch of sky we can observe thousands upon thousands of galaxies. Now with technology developing, we will be able to observe even more galaxies at a much larger scale. I can't wait to see what scientist will discover in a few years.
+iamihop If there's anything you learn while studying the history of scientific progress, it's this: saying "We can't do this any better than we're doing it now" is almost a surefire way to be wrong.
iamihop
For all we know, astrophysicists in a decade could declare that a previously observed cluster of galaxies is actually a single enormous galaxy, and THAT galaxy is actually the largest. We could look further into deep space (I'm not sure why you think we've reached the limit of observability; even the Hubble Ultra Deep Field image can be improved, and that's a VERY small slice of the sky) in practically any direction and find a bigger galaxy. We could change the very definition of "galaxy" in the coming decades to change how we think of this altogether, much like Pluto was once a planet.
Do you see now why it's a bad bet to make a claim as strong as "This is the largest galaxy in the observable universe" and expect it to be the final word on the matter?
+iamihop Didn't they discover a particle that's faster than the speed of light, at CERN, a couple of years ago? I'm unsure if it has been proven or not. Nevertheless I'm fairly certain that with enough technological advancements we will one day be traveling faster than the speed of light, if we haven't commited planetary suicide that is. However like you've pointed it out we'll probably find a clever way of circumventing the speed of light first.
You also have Quantum Physics and with it Quantum Entanglement. QE a process in which information travels instantaneously. With enough technological advances we could manipulate this to eventually look past our observable universe & instantaneously receive the information.
On the note of Physical Law. It doesn't mean that these laws are mathematically correct. For all we know in a few decades we might entirely dismiss certain laws as false. Theories are still theories until proven as facts.
Also, isn't it entirely possible that one of these massive galaxies might block the view of an even bigger galaxy. We have barely observed a fraction of galaxies in our observable universe.
+iamihop While I like what you're trying to say, I like what Simon is saying a bit more. The truth is that... Based on the information we CURRENTLY have, we BELIEVE that the universe is 13.5-7 billion light years old. The truth is, that's what we know based on the technology that we have now. And while I don't argue the importance of the speed of light and its impact on our ability to see things, I also don't doubt the ability of new technology to show us that the universe isn't ACTUALLY 13.5-7 billion years old, it stretches far beyond that number, we were simply unable to see that before. Anyways, the idea is simple, just because we currently consider the the age of the universe as fact, doesn't mean that we won't prove ourselves wrong, come the future :).
+iamihop I like you're explanation but Galaxy's are getting bigger and more stars are forming inside of them.So the light can travel towards us and we can see more bigger Galaxy's.Anyways we will be able to see bigger Galaxys, because Our galaxy,The Milky Way is moving through space and,Other galaxies are moving through space also.And one Galaxy might get close to our Galaxy and scientists might "catch it" and see that there was a bigger Galaxy.(Probably there's a one % chance that,A galaxy might get to close to our galaxy)
This guys voice is amazing
The narration and soundtrack was very relaxing.
agree, he has a very smooth voice
"The largest Galaxy we've ever seen" is not the same as the largest that exists in the known universe. We can't possibly know what is the largest because some of them are so far away they barely register as tiny specks to the most powerful telescopes.
Thanks to Hubble, we do know a lot about those farthest (hence earliest) galaxies in the universe. Most of them are small, irregular and full of young, bright stars. Nowhere near the size of the later ellipticals. So even though we haven't seen many of those galaxies directly, the ones we have seen has taught us much. We may one day find a galaxy larger than IC 1101, but the point of this video was to teach you about just how big they can get. Thanks for watching!
Deep Astronomy Um no… I'm talking about galaxies only recently and barely discovered on the fringe of the universe that show up as the tiniest specks. Billions of them newly discovered by the advanced optics of the latest space scopes. These galaxies are much too far away to discern their size. There might well be some on the fringes of visibility that dwarf IC 1101.
we are just a drop in an ocean
We see the farthest galaxies as they looked like 10 billion years ago. They may have been full of young, bright stars back then. But the galaxy in the video has ended up much closer to us, "only" one billion lightyears away.
WilfredIvanhoe So true. We are seeing the distant past. Many visible star systems may no longer exist and the light from newly created ones is not yet visible.
So, if we look at a really large galaxy. Its part closest to us would be thousands of light years closer than the farthest parts of that galaxy. Meaning that, on a picture, the farthest part would be where they were thousands of years before the "front" parts. That basically means that we're not seeing these things as they are, but rather skewed in time. Which is kinda trippy. :D
stitchem7 Wow, thanks man. :) I appreciate that. I don't really know anyone who could find the data required to do that, but i do know some people who could probably do a 3d rendered model of it, if they're given the proper data.
They state in the vid that ic1101 is 6 million ly across, so the number is 6 million, not a few thousand. Regardless, i dont think you would observe much of a difference, as thousands or even 6 million is such a small number on a galactic scale
Ok, i see what you're saying. Makes sense. I'd still love to see it, for the shear relativity-related qualities of it. :)
It's millions of light years away. Light years is the distance it takes for light to travel in a year. If you're 20 years old that not even a blink of an eye in the lifespan it takes to get to you.
Yeah
Tony's voice is perfectly suited to these videos.
yeah.
hahahaha He said that IC 1101 is a billion light years away and it is dying a slow death. hahahaha if it is a billion light years away then it will still appear in the night sky to us up to 1 billion years after it dies. So the "slow death" may have already run its course and it may already be dead.
+De Selby Sadly yes. Or maybe it's a good thing if it is gone. who knows? lol. Fascinating stuff to ponder nonetheless.
+De Selby No, it is definitely still there. Most of the stars in it, are thought to be Red Dwarves. We are not quite sure how long those stars last, because we know they last longer than the current age of the universe. Some theories say they will last between 50-100 billion years, and others say they could last just longer than a trillion years. So most of those stars will be there long after the billion years it takes for the light it emitted to reach us.
Even after all those stars and whatever successive generations of stars might take their place all burn out, the galaxy will still be there, it just won't be emitting much light. All the remnants, white dwarves (long since cooled off) brown dwarves, tiny bit of gas, dark matter, neutron stars, black holes, etc. will still be there too. None of that is going anywhere, unless the expansion of the universe accelerates much more than predicted so it could even rip eliptical galaxies apart. Though that would still be so far in the future that our brains have trouble even counting how many years that might be, as a minimum.
The point is, the "slow death" thing is a bit of amisnomer. It's not going anywhere anytime soon. In fact, its Red Dwarves will burn out around the same time as the ones in the MilkyWay and whatever other galaxies it merged with in the interim. On those sorts of time scales, 2-3 billion years is pretty much 10 minutes ago,
+De Selby except that the smaller stars live a really really long time, so it's not dead yet.
+De Selby no they can tell how old stars are in this galaxy based on their light. and stars do last more than a billion years. our sun for instance is way older than a billion years.
I see your point but why is it so funny ??
space is as awesome as it is scary
Space is scary it's a small word it's so so scary
How is space scary?
+Henrik Schmidt its all a mystery..we see only the shapes and sizes of the planets, stars, and galaxies..space is inconcievably large..a dark landscape with incredible structures lighting up the sky..a truly wondorous universe in which we live in..way larger than any one man or woman can hope to conquer like one would a plot of land or a country..that in itself is intimidating..and knowing once we leave earth..theres no where else known we can use as substitute and call home.. you would just drift farther and farther away into the darkness.. floating in an endless void..where neither above or below you would the space end..in the cosmic ocean..there is no shore certain to hold paradise..
young Vegeta That's not scary lol. Space is just space.
04:10 Narrator's voice besides this music on this great video, it makes wonderful
Imagine when at the last seconds of the video, the narrator casually says, "Even with the enormous size of IC 1101, it is no bigger than your mother." And suddenly it ends.
"the smallest are only about 200 light years across and only have as few as 100 million stars".... lol
i was saying the same thing lol
That's a very small number... I myself have around a billion stars in my back pocket which is a million light years across....
@@aNimELoVer-mq4bw nothing to brag about. My uncle has a mid sized galaxy with about 200 billion stars, and he is now buying another one containing 100 billion stars. Most stars are already rented out btw.
we cant be the only ones out there there could be thousands of planets like earth in ic 1101 alone
more like millions or billions
could happen over time but what if we are the first? Even though there are many possibilities and coincedences what if we ARE alone? What if mankind is eternal, with this in mind, do we want to chase alien life or maintain ours on this globe>? We should try to understand animals first, before making contact with higher lifeforms to whom we are animals as animals are to us, so pls cut the BS if there would be aliens able to come to our star etc. they might as wel be angel-like and might be beyond evil as they are beyond darkness... if they aren't they are either hiding from their own destruction and trying to fool the masses on their planet into oblivian by telling them they are seeking other lifeforms on other planets... or "THEY ARE COMING" we are being attacked by the humans... while flying their own ufo's killing their own kind... HMNS the mindfuck is allways a sadstory, not hisstory it's just HIS story...
Haven't you heard, the greys the ET what been visiting us for thousands of years, are communist that is the only reason you Gov. the USA I presume, kept it a secret from you the people? And I mean the three planets they live on are all Communist only one people on all the planets living in peace. I doubt is the kind of controlling freaks Communism what we have on Earth but never the less is Communism, everybody works and everybody is looked after and apparently death for them is not a big deal. And they are a very old civilization hundred of thousands of years ahead of us.
In an infinite universe, it's a certainty that somewhere there are other thinking beings....in fact, it's a certainty that somewhere there's identical earth and yous and mes, but even in a finite universe, the chances that we are it are so far beyond highly unlikely that it's a statistically virtual certainty.
I think we ha ve predicted that milions of planets like Earth exist in the milky way alone.
So yeah bilions if not trilions of planets like Earth should exist in ic 1101.
That does not mean they all have life but yeah.
660 dislikes about space? What did space and galaxies ever do to you???? :(
lkr
The Real Night Hunter ha ha :) have a good weekend!
BLU Scout lol that's sad but true. Why is space so far away??
It's like space hates us or something :P
BLU Scout I think space would always be exciting... new life??
What if we could travel instantly around the universe but all we found was dead civilizations? It would always be interesting in my opinion because there is so much to learn.
BLU Scout The odds are against us ... :) Big time. I don't think we could ever find out about space?? Do you?? :)
Quick numbers...
Light travels around the earth 7 times every second.
It takes light 4 years to get to the closest star! another 4 light years to get to Sirius!
The two closest stars to us (that are very far away) have G2 class star systems just like our sun.
Our galaxy is 100,000 light years in diameter! There are about 300 billion stars in the galaxy with even more planets. There is an incredible amount of space to check out.
The closest galaxy is 2.2 million light years away!
Galaxies come in large clusters, and then super clusters with massive distances in between them.
Space is freaking big!!! lol
I think it would be necessary to travel instantaneously if you'd want to discover the universe. It's too big!
4 light years to travel to the closest star!
Crazy stuff buddy :) Have a good weekend :)
Just thinking about the size of space makes my brain hurt. Utterly fascinating.
What if we are the only life in the galaxy. The very thought of it is scary.
+Mario Urias Yes, scary and lonely...
+Mario Urias +Lugnos Dee
Don't worry, I am pretty sure there are other life on other planets as well.We are not the only ones who have evolved this much.Some scientists are 100% sure that kepler 452b, more as Earth 2.0, contains life.
+adrianbrowne1984 -- I get the same feeling when I camp out in the middle of a forest.
+Mario Urias not scary
+ThePlayingScholar there's other life, but we are far more important here on Earth as we are stuck in a cycle of incarnating against our will. Everyone think it's just normal to die and reincarnate here. Well, it's not, It's a trap. Our negative energy is a food source. Humans are the newest extension used in this 3rd dimension by your soul to achieve Christ Consciousness. Jesus was very aware of all of this and broke the cycle. He even incarnated on his own free will at a time due to the fact he REGAINED it. He forgave the people that hurt him because he saw that if only they knew the truth, they'd be in tears and would understand Jesus. That's a positive view point and the only one Jesus used. He knew not to go to the light and because of that, he returned to the Source. He couldn't be fed off of no longer.
Let's remember guys that (1Ly = 9.4 trillion kilometers)
A bit more than that. 9.461 trillion kilometers.
Its still close enough
What a wonderful time to be alive, to see and learn so much about our universe. :)
I feel just this same way. How incredibly fortunate, for example, to be alive when we can see the very first images formed by the ancient light near the biug bang itself. The Hubble UDF, the WMAP and and other images of the CMB even farther back in time. Since the very start of things that these images show us, no one on Earth has seen them. Until now, right now. Holy cow. If that doesn't put a shiver down one's spine looking at these and thinking about them, probably nothing will. A person might just as well be dead. I am ecstatic to be alive now, and I just want to live forever, or at least a very long time, to learn the answers to the questions we still don't we still understand, and the ones we cannot even ask yet!
I agree and disagree with you. We are learning but we will never know the truth. At least, those of us alive now won’t.
If this galaxy is roughly a billion light years away, then we are seeing it in its state a billion years ago... So therefore is it possible that this galaxy is already gone, or that this galaxy is very near total oblivion with most of its matter sucked into the black hole at its center?
Galaxies last for many billions of years. It could become dimmer in billions of years as its younger stars die out. Or it may merge with another galaxy and undergo a short period of star formation. Black holes do not suck matter in. They always seem to make up less than a few percent of the total mass of a galaxy, so are thought to only feed on nearby matter during merging with another galaxy.
It is a billion light years away so what we are seeing today is a billion light years old picture. Billion light years are not equal to billion years. When I think of the size of the universe I always wonder what it might hold. How many and what type of life forms.
jagdeep sidhu "Billion light years are not equal to billion years."
Um...yes, it is, in a way. A billion light years is the distance that takes light a billion years to travel. That means when seeing an object a billion light years away, we're actually seeing what it looked like a billion years ago (give or take, considering light from the stars on its far side took less time to get here than the light from the stars on its near side). Any creatures in that galaxy looking our direction would see the Milky Way as it appeared a billion years ago, and if they had the capability of imaging the Earth they would see it long before the Cambrian Explosion started filling the oceans with the huge diversity of life forms, even though humans are presently here looking up a them. While light years are measurements of distance rather than measurements of time, they are very closely linked with time because of the limitation of the speed of light and the incomprehensibly vast distances that light has to travel.
***** What you say is nearly there, but doesn't quite tell the whole story. The relationship between distance and the time it takes light to reach us is not a 1:1 relationship. This is because the very fabric of space is expanding. Thus galaxies very far away are substantially further in their distance from us than it has taken their light to travel to us. If the relationship was strictly 1:1, then the universe would have a radius the size of its age (13 billion light years) however it's true diameter is more likely in the realm of 150 billion light years. This is because when the universe expands, the very fabric of space expands with it. It's possible to have galaxies travelling away from each other faster than the speed of light because of this, in which case their secrets will be forever lost to us.
When we see light from a galaxy which has taken 12 or 13 billion years to reach us, it's entirely possible that they are now many times further away
***** Just to add to Frank, look up 'comoving distance':
www.princeton.edu/~achaney/tmve/wiki100k/docs/Comoving_distance.html
If it's a billion light years away, aren't we talking about something that happened a billion years ago? Why do we keep referring it as if it's in the present.
Because it's the present in our reference frame. From the perspective of someone in that galaxy right now, life on earth is just crawling out of the oceans. From someone in a galaxy a billion years from both this one and ours, both views are true.
+Chris P. Bacon thanks. To say this whole thing is mind boggling is so much of an understatement.
A weirder thing to think about is everything you see is in the "past". If you're standing a few feet away from someone, having a conversation, it takes a few picoseconds for that light to reach you (and it takes even longer for the sound to get to you). "Now" is kind of a hard thing to pin down, and has less and less meaning the more you stop to think about it. The best we can do to define a "now" or the present is to say that it's when the photons finally reach our specific reference point.
I've been fascinated by astronomy for the better part of two decades, but man does the physics all sound like some elaborate practical joke sometimes.
+Chris P. Bacon that makes perfect sense. Thanks for your time & explanation. "Now" is really a relative term or a perception (for a lack of better words).
+Chris P. Bacon I am always thinking about that, that when you see something it append in the past it's mindblowing
It's scary to think that this galaxy is actually tiny compared to other objects in the universe

The music, the visuals and Tony's voice is a hypnotic and intriguing combination! Great job!
*_Hello guys ! i am from galaxy IC 1101 planet KEPLER 186F :D it's really cool here ! :D_*
The Doods. u wot m8
The Doods. can we send you françois hollande ?
+The Doods. can u fly there? i want to know the gravity there
Someone is maaaad :)
+The Doods. What do the women look like?
Okay, IC 101 is the largest KNOWN galaxy. We have the measurements of about .0000000000000000000000001% of our universe's galaxies.
And we haven't even found all of the galaxies.
***** Perhaps there's a galaxy that's about 1 billion light years across, Christ.
***** Or there could be a galaxy the size of a puppy. WHO THE FUCK KNOWS
*****
There are galaxies we can't ever find.
***** our galaxy is 100 million light years across, go figure, so lets find one Graham's Number light years across :3
Tha largest galaxy in the KNOWN universe - not necessarily the largest in the universe.
It doesnt matter anyway whatever galaxy is bigger or not... Every galaxy is bigger than anyone can comprehend
Every galaxy and star we can see is about 4% of the entire universe. We don’t even know of the other 96%.. just grasp that for a second. There are definitely bigger ones out there
Great video but wouldn't it be the largest galaxy of the OBSERVABLE universe ?
+exionem Yes, it's stated that way in the video itself.
+exionem The video says "largest galaxy in the known universe". That cannot be substantiated. He should have said "largest galaxy known in the universe."
+Dave Moore It is both...the known universe consists of the stuff we can detect, that's what makes it "known" to us. So the largest galaxy known to us to exist in the universe is...you guessed it...the largest galaxy in the known universe.
+exionem Observable by what means, How do we Know? Is this knowledge shared, are these two words Interchangeable in the context? known by whom? dark matter???!!? is this observable, or even really known? how much of this videos information is speculative thinking? educated though it is
+relentlessmadman Observable by ALL means known to us, including optical and radio telescopes. We know because astronomical knowledge is virtually ALWAYS shared, to afford opportunity for independent corroboration. Are WHICH two words interchangeable and to which context are you referring? Yes, Dark matter. Its gravitational effects are observable, and therefore, known. (Assuming you know that the space between stars is occupied by hydrogen atoms, and that not ALL matter radiates light.) Did you think to ask the maker of the video as to how much of the information given is speculative? Are you as big an idiot as your comment makes you appear? Is this idiocy measurable? Are you actually human, or only a bot? If you are a bot, who is the moron who authored you? If you are human, is the space between your ears also occupied by hydrogen atoms?
I love this Galaxy!
This is so beautiful, The Universe truly is amazing and full of wonder and mystery. :D
"The great cosmic dance". -I like that.
Superior quality and great presentation. I'm refreshed that good work is still present among all the infinitely ignore-able offerings.
As a Space Enthusiast, I just subbed to your channel due to the contents you upload. Thank you.
This only confirms the insignificance of our invention of God.
Reality utterly dwarfs this man-made creation.
Fred Garven this is always evident :)
A great marvelous Universe confirms the insignificance of God????
LOL God Is GREAT. His Domain is the Universe of Universes. You did not create the Earth or the Cosmos. Yet you have the nerve to denounce the Great Creator. Life is intelligent design; if you do not see this then you must not be intelligent.
Chris Nenshati
Allahu Akbar to you too.
Chris Nenshati Intelligent design?? Have you been sick? Have you seen patients in the hospital? Bad gall bladder, bad appendix, born with hole in the heart, blue babies, babies born with heart, stomach, intestines outside their bodies, babies with huge water logged useless brain, born dead because of umbilicus wrapped around their neck, babies born with exposed spinal, cord, babies born with missing arm, leg, extra fingers, toes, with only one eye etc., etc.
An intelligent designer could do much better than that "Great Creator".
Chris Nenshati "Yet you have the nerve to denounce the Great Creator. Life is intelligent design"
If life is intelligent design, the Great Creator made a pretty crappy job of it. I'd like a stronger back, and while he's at it another heart. We have two lungs and kidneys (very sensible arrangement, as we can get by on only one of either if necessary) so why not two hearts? That would literally be a huge lifesaver.
Evolution by natural selection tends to produce Gold Ruberg machines - patch and make do, morphing, melding and sometimes eliminating existing structures under evolutionary pressure, and this more closely corresponds to the available evidence. Many people suffer from backache and problems such as slipped disks. Second only to the common cold as a cause of lost days at work. Half the population suffers from back pain at some time during their lives. This is not surprising as a bipedal gait is a relatively recent innovation - for nearly all of our evolutionary history since our fishy ancestor emerged from the oceans we went on all fours. Our current pelvic and spinal column arrangement is not perfectly suited to function, especially in modern industrial societies - it could do with some additional butressing. Unfortunately evolution only ever works in terms of 'good enough to ensure survival up to the point of successful reproduction', and not perfection. Why would the Great Creator build such imperfections into his 'intelligent' designs?
"I created everything, deal with it. Try disproving me."
And I'll deal with that one by saying all you've done is make a claim "I created everything" - where's the evidence? The onus is also on you to prove your case as you are the one making the claim. I don't have to disprove anything. You've tipped head first into the Negative Proof Fallacy

Goddawm. Our galaxy is already humongous, but IC 1101--ungodly.
It takes 5 and 1/2 hours for light from the sun to reach Pluto. One light year is the distance light can travel in one year.
If we tried to used current spaceships going at 250,000 miles per hour to reach our nearest neighboring star (4 light years away), it would take 18,000 years to get there.
IC 1101 is 5.5 million light years across. This galaxy is so large that our mind is incapable of comprehending just how big it really is. To think of all the alien life that has come and gone. Millions of civilizations that were born, died, or transcended into something more, with exotic technology that we'll never get to see. So beautiful.
Very enjoyable and informative video. Good narration and music kept it interesting as well.
his voice is awesome.
Oddly enough, though I have always been fascinated by the different sizes of stars, for some reason, I never really thought about the sizes of galaxies.(??) Now I will.
FishHeadSalad It's a really introductory topic that you'll find in a lot of beginner's Astronomy books.
This channel is awesome, subbed straight away !
incredible. and Tysons smooth narrative along with the music make it mesmerizing to view. nice work
+Ben Kehler Tyson? You mean, Tony Darnell?
Yeah whoever sounds like Ty. Point being same
love his voice tho..
"It's over 50 times the size of our galaxy, and over 2000 times more massive."
Wow, that's one slim galaxy. By cubing the size it would have to be 125000 times the Milky Way's mass, if it had the same mass density... And it's elliptical, it's much better space-filling than a spiral galaxy... The distances between stars in IC1101 must be very large, it would be a pretty lonely galaxy.
(It's also one of the reasons why it's an aging galaxy with very little star formation - stuff is just too far apart for favorable star-forming conditions to form.
To be fair, galaxies are pretty 2 dimensional, square it and you get 2500, now 2000x more doesn't seem that crazy anymore.
I like that you always keep it real at the end, theres not always a happy ending so to speak
Your voice is EXTRAORDINARY! You could make watching grass grow interesting. Extraordinary voice the best. My ears and brain thank you!
Simply beautiful, this is why death cannot be absolute. Everything is recycled in nature and the universe.
***** everything in the universe is conscious. Look at the double slit experiment. For me it sort of proves it.
***** actually it is very conscious. We are the universe. The universe didn't happen from one point and spewed out. The big bang happened everywhere at the same time. For billions and billions of years, the universe was here and no one knew about it. More to the point, for all that time, the universe itself had no idea that it existed. But then, around 13.82 billion years after the Big Bang, and almost four billion years since life first evolved, something strange began to happen: Tiny parts of the universe became conscious, and came to know something about themselves and the universe of which they are a part. Eventually, some of these tiny parts of the universe - the parts we call ‘scientists' and ‘scientifically-informed laypeople' - came to understand the Big Bang and the evolutionary process through which they had come to exist. After an eternity of unconsciousness, the universe now had some glimmering awareness that it existed and some understanding of where it had come from. This might sound like a strange thing for a universe to do, but perhaps it's not; perhaps many possible universes would become conscious of themselves given sufficient time.
***** all iam getting at really is that, yes we are conscious but we are undoubtedly part of the universe, and solely because of this the universe is conscious. A few discoveries have now been made that the universe expands similar the way a network or a brain expands. Iam not a hippy spouting rubbish, everything really is connected. Every single atom in the universe vibrates at a different frequency. So much so that everytime an atom moves in space time, it directly affects atoms sometimes billions of lightyears away, in a way that makes sure that no two atoms resonate exactly the same.
Jamie Carter
After reading all your replies, i still have come to the very conclusion you need to lay off the dope.
eskimo4130 please don't interfere, you probably haven't even looked up the double slit experiment or understand it. If you can comprehend it. It may change your mind on how you see the universe
If you look closely at the star that's 2,347,783rd from the top and 12,833,456,133rd from the left corner towards the center, you can see a space ship orbiting the 3rd planet.
Fj, Where exactly do you see that?
@@MahaSawarSawar-ml3jv I gave the exact location.
Where?
One of the best videos of any category on TH-cam.
Knowledge of our cosmos like this make me feel so insignificant... a huge relief.
Hmm... but it's 1.07 billion light years away, it could means it has exploded by now.
How can a galaxy "explode" ? I hate it when stupid people watch science videos
u funny guy lol
Why do all the interesting space videos have to be depressing.
fredric porsche It's no closer that the beginning of the world.
Fantastic narration and score 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The subject is interesting enough, but your narration is pretty spectacular on itself!
VERY interesting, but sadly i won't be able to live long enough (even though i'm only 18) to see what lies beyond space.
***** no one knows... besides (the following is for atheists) the bible is way to wacky to be faked, probably aliens, and people found a book that was written 600 years ago and contains a unsolvable cipher (they've tried to break it for more than a decade century) and it has a picture of what looks way to close to Andromeda in it, and then they had telescopes that couldn't reach that far, or get it that high def. at the least, so either aliens, god, or aliens are god XD
***** We are quite intelligent compared to other animals, there are recent studies though suggesting that dolphins use language, they can't translate it or tell if its instinctive or learned, though.
Every time I let my self be too optimistic about the future of our race, and believe in global unity and space exploration, I come back to this video to view the comments. Works every time.
love all these documentaries!,
but everytime i watch one just creates more questions then it answers
Very impressive and absolutely beautiful. Love this.
Religion = I have no clue, someone created all this by magic 'cause I read it in some two-thousand year old book of myths based on ignorance.
Atheism = let's think rationally and experiment with conclusions based upon verifiable, concrete evidence and observation through a series of trials.
Thank you, I'll take Atheism anytime :).
***** I repeat, I'll take Atheism anytime.
Says the guy who is not very accurately how was he/she (dunno) created. I'll take religion thank you very much.
Does not know accurately*
+triplejudy Well, you define "religion", an umbrella term, with only one: Christianity. Religion doesn't consist of merely one sect; so it would be ignorant of someone to dismiss the plethora of other religions without recognizing them, while hailing Atheism as the supreme choice because of "some two-thousand year old book". Religion's significance is gauged by how an individual perceives it, so "myths", in an extreme context, can be interpreted as facts, or conversely, as guidelines on how to live your life morally. In my opinion, your above statement about religion is based on your "ignorance", since not all religions are based on "myths". Maybe next time you should put some effort into your research before discussing broad topics such as religious beliefs.
If an atheism can explain how all this created precisely then I will take atheism
so thank u I will take religion for sure :P
holy shit :p the distance must be insane, I wonder what kind of planets are in that galaxy. Sucks that physics is lame and we cant just go there and visit for a bit
also theres probably bigger galaxies outside the observable universe
yeah, that would be awesome.
I know you don't mean it but never say physics is lame, is sort of everything/human reality, in a way.
Physics is what allowed us to discover something a billion light years away!
Jaximous but many teachers in physics, (not talking university level), are not able to open our eyes of how important and exciting physics can be...
You can, its called warp drive.
I must say, in comparison to other videos: Good voice, I really enjoy listening to what he's talking about. :)
This is the appropriate youtube video for anybody who needs to find out about this topic. You understand so much its nearly hard to argue with you (not that I really would needHaHa). You definitely put a new spin on a subject thats been written about for years. Nice stuff, simply great!
The Largest Galaxy in the Universw : IC 1101
This is the largest galaxy in the observable universe (as far as we can see at present.)
Great video. Excellent use of music too.
This is beyond mind blowing and amazing! I love Astronomy, and knowing that there are 100 billion galaxies in the Universe just completely comes to mind that if there's life in any other galaxies!
This 9 year old video is not really up to date. Modern observation and studies show that 2 trillion galaxies in just the observable universe is already a very low estimate.
there has to be some purpose to all of this and if there is an answer to those big questions, they can only be found after death.
Kristov Asunciou I think its more likely that we are bound to this Earth until we die, then we are free to go wherever we want... given that there is something after life.. i really hope so.. also.. it cant be that the Universe is so extremely big and we are the only ones living in that Cluster.. it could also very well be that we are the most advanced but dont even know that yet.. If i had the option to ask one Question to an all knowing being... i guess it would just be "So.. how big is the Universe really?"
We can only speculate things... maybe the Universe is shaped like a Donut and is connected as a loop.. but we simply cant see that connection.. it just cant be that the Universe could be "infinite".. well maybe i just cant grasp that fact..
DieHardjagged The Universe is finite, and it's been proved that it has the shape of an ellipse. Recently however, the shape of a donut has been proposed by German scientists in 2003.
You want there to be a purpose, there doesn't have to be a purpose
+Nikko2154 Do they want to change the shape of donuts?
+kefkapalazzo1 Would you do anything if you didn't have a purpose?
It is sad that I won't live long enough to experience when the human race has achieve their goals to travel beyond in space to find new civilization. It is a dream of mine to travel to other plants and galaxies to encounter possibly life forms. Hopefully I will get to experience some type of advance technology such as the time machine before I past.
Google the great filter
I actually believe that when we die, we don't actually die. Like our spirit just goes into a new being. Your life restarts.
+Kamall XvX I don't want a new life where I'm brainwashed by religious nuts from the start
+Kamall XvX if our "souls" are recycled then how do we account for their being more living things on earth than there used to be? new souls? what if we suffer an extinction? nowhere for these souls to go do they cease to exist? do all living things contain a spirit? what makes you more deserving of a spirit than a plant or microbe?
No one ever really dies. We are the same consciousness living in different bodies and having different experiences. When we die, we just wake up like it was a dream.
“Gigantic and ancient ellipticals.” When he said that line, I felt it.
This helps alot with one of my Science projects! Thanks!! :)
People arguing over if God is real or not. There is no proof that he is or isn't real. Both sides need to stop trying to prove their argument, it's impossible!
God ? it exists only in the souls of those who belive in him :) to the other ones ? they have music, science, arts , sex and all what pump adrenalin, in theyr soul and thats what keeps them motivated :) i belive peple that belive in god are more weker then those who belive in theyrself :)
THANK YOU!!!!!
Finnally
Adults arguing over God/religion is exactly like two 6-year olds arguing over whose invisible friend is best. Superstitious nonsense cooked up be rulers and elites to keep the peasants in line.
If you could change people's beliefs that easily, then maybe this world would be a little less chaotic.
13 billion years ago..who makes up these numbers..?
+stevie6621 No one makes it up, it's theoretical physics based on the rate of expansion of the universe based on how fast matter, stars and galaxies are moving apart in the universe. As for God and gods, humans make them up, that's for sure.
Willie Booker
They don't know anything about the age.
Are you implying the world is 6,000 years old according to the bible? That's ridiculous, there are civilizations older than that. "They" being thousands of physicists working on this? They could well have the exact time wrong, but it's definitely in the billions of years.
+stevie6621 To give you a bit less hostile of a reply: a lot can be said about the age of the universe. For instance, we see galaxies moving away from us - the ones farther away move faster. This implies that the universe as a whole is expanding. Measuring how fast this expansion is, allows us to trace it back - and it turns out that you can trace it back to about 13.7 billion years ago.
+stevie6621 So, how old is the universe really?
A perfect voice. I thought only space narrator voice is good for these kind of videos but this guy is also good.
IC 1101 is nothing compared to the Great Tubular Hyper-galaxy found in my underpants.
LMFAOOOOO
So where's your super massive blackhole located at?
But my sister is a dude now.
WTF^
LOL!
What if at the end of the video the narrator just casually said "Even with the enormous size of IC 1101, it's almost as large as your mother" and the video just stops
So mind-blowing it's impossible to comprehend unless.. it's all within you.
het is allemaal geweldig, ik wou dat ik meer daarvan zou begrijpen .
I managed to fit this large galaxy into my computer.
How the fuck can something this big exist
For real
This guy’s voice is amazing.
Great video! Loved the content
The Universe is one big game of Agar.io if you think about it
Well, doesn't this make you feel slightly insignificant! :)
No! I possess a lot of qualities that galaxies don't have.
I am a piece of the universe that is sentient and I feel great and powerful for it.
Luna You obviously missed my point. But I am sure you are wonderful and as great as you make it....
I noticed you have made homophobic and racist comments on other vids.... nice.... smh
drew2pac Stop stalking me xd
Luna Just wanted to know I was right in assuming you a freak. Convo over, go away
drew2pac Whoever I troll on my free time is my own bussiness.
Attack the ideals and not the person making them you butt.
You ruined this thread with your ineptitude at discussion.
I could listen to this guy for hours
so beautiful
