Respect for the man in the icecream van. Flying through he galaxies and capturing all this beautiful images for us.
Salute
Hey I like ice cream
Andromeda is 2m light years away.
And this single galaxy is 6m + wide.
I can't get my head around this level of distance!
So if I was sat on one planet on the edge of this galaxy looking out on stars on the opposite side they would be 6 million years older than present on that planet. Mind boggling.
Yet he is presenting it as if humans have been there. Sad.
I can. Get on my level you mental midgets
@@timothyandrewnielsen ok
@@timothyandrewnielsen wait, there's nothing here
“Currently, Andromeda and the Milky Way are about 2.5 million light-years apart. Fueled by gravity, the two galaxies are hurtling toward one another at 402,000 kilometers per hour. But even at that speed, they won't meet for another four billion years.” [NatGeo]
i cant wait to see that.
Dude we will all die befour we see the andromega and milky way coilde
Nice. Anti-collusion trajectory god. I saw what u did there😎
Our sun will die when? Exactly.
@@domicat3841 yeah idt that we will even survive for another 100 years if we keep destroying our home, "we can always go to mars" yeah no i would rather die than see another planet be destroyed
@@adrianaadnan7704 about 5 billion years, so dont worry, we wont see it die... hopefully xD
This simulator should be shown in every School. Maybe then more people will understand how rare and precious life is, and at the same time how small and unimportant we are all together. Whoever made this simulator is a great person.
Not really because all those specks we see we haven't got a clue what inhabits them. Most of them specs of light contain billion + solar systems. Yes life is precious. I agree, it's very special. It's almost as if the whole thing has been created to support life. I'd instead of picturing a universe, imagine a huge habitat. There's a pattern with everything else. It'll be foolish to the pattern stops with Earth.
What does size have to do with importance? That is such a strange and illogical argument. Fat people are more important than thin people? It's often coupled with importance by geography. As if that is a thing. The most important thing is always in the center? Since when?
Apples and oranges....You say it shows how unimportant we all are , and I say that it shows how unique life is and how SPECIAL we all are. Something truly remarkable happened on this planet ( even miraculous you could say ) that , so far, doesn't appear to have happened anywhere else. On the contrary , every other planet we're able to observe is barren and quite lifeless,...Now, I know what others say, that the universe is SO huge with untold trillions of other planets that there HAS TO BE other life out there somewhere...Well, maybe there is, but just maybe there isn't too. Until someone finds life out there, like it or not, it's all conjecture....Yeah, maybe we are THAT SPECIAL after all !
I completely agree
@@ronaldholmes8525 life is not rare, neither is it restricted to carbon based biology, or bipedalism or binocular vision... we are special no matter how many life forms exist out there, that's the point of is even reflected in us, we are all seemingly the same minus a few physical differences yet we are all individuals with unique experiences. The universe is us and we are aware of ourselves, we are minds, localized in this shared dream experience, it is hell on earth because we make it so, we are world shapers but we have forgotten. Why do you think the pyramids were so special? It was a symbol of our control over our environment, but it then became a symbol of royalty and power over man, twisting it into a reflection of our own psychic substructures.
6m light years diameter. OK, let me just process that.
If they can see this far so why they can't even see what's within Saturn ? Lol
Gas is too dense in the atmosphere, if we took a probe into the atmosphere it would be crushed almost instantly
. . .I can't process that.
@@nadsultan6915 in addition to the gas of saturn being dense... the gas is also traveling at speeds of up to 1000 mph
nad sultan same reason you can’t see what’s within a golf ball but can walk outside and see Andromeda through a telescope
I can't even comprehend how enormous our galaxy alone is
Aj Oneil 150 million light years from one side to the other lol
@@Igiveashitofaname The Milky Way is only 126,000 lightyears in length.
Milkyway is actually very small. It is just that 150k light years and if you get out of it, you can reach Andromeda, which is much bigger. So I say its tiny and we should be ashamed of ourselves that we have such a small galaxy.
@@halfvolley11 no, Milky way is bigger than avarage galaxy
@@halfvolley11 according to the vid, milky way is 126k ly, and andromeda 141k ly, not too much larger than us, especially when you look at galaxies like 1101 at a hefty 6 Mly. lol

I love New Orleans.
With how big the universe is, with all the galaxies in it, with all the stars in it, and with all the planets, I’m shocked that people can say with 100% certainty that life doesn’t exist any where in the universe but here.
Darth Nicotitus where did you hear that? No one can say with 100% certainty that life exist anywhere nor that it doesn’t. For all we know life could be lurking as close as mars or as far as the furthest galaxy observed or it could not exist anywhere else. But NO ONE can say with 100% certainty that life does or doesn’t exist elsewhere.
@@tylerjohnson3728 Yeah, they just said that.
We've only managed to properly start looking on Mars. The latest reports from NASA scientists is that they have discovered life there but they are holding back on making it officially public in fear it may cause panic and disorder.
Statistically speaking, the odds of earth being the only place with life is virtually zero with the trillions of trillions starts in the trillions of galaxies.
@@kangaroo9299 that depends on the chances of life forming. If that chance would be about 1 in 10^23, then we may very well be alone. Until the discovery of exoplanets this was certainly a tenable position. But we have more data now.
Out of a set of more than 3000 exoplanets about 20 are considered 'potentially habitable'. Lets be pessimistic and assume only 10% of those actually contain life, that gives a little less than a 0.1% chance of hosting life, so the universe would basically be full of life... And it is likely more because of detection bias(it's easier to detect gas giants, making the sample unrepresentative).
i love how we just zoomed out into incomprehensible depths of space from earth, like it was nothing, while you were talking. What a fact about reality we take for granted and live our ego lives completely oblivious to it
How can humans be so proud and say that there's no God. All these can't just be by accident. It takes wisdom to believe in God's existence and power. Let's humble ourselves. Even earth doesn't appear anywhere here. Smh.
Why is everyone so hyped up over this video? IT'S NOT REAL, you know! All it basically is , is an animated movie. We didn't really travel a billion light years and go see the largest Galaxy . Calm down, people. The reality is , no human has traveled beyond our own moon...That's like crossing the street.
That Galaxy is a retirement home for stars
so funny but yet true
Kinda like Florida, supermassive black hole in the middle of it and all......😡
That Galaxy is like China of the Universe world. Milkyway is like UK - average size.
Nah, I’ve explored that galaxy before, rhe stars are really spread out except very very close to the center, if anything it’s like the Russia of Galaxies, big only a few small areas are really densely populated
@@Anyo92 Makes sense. The center would be Moscow.
Dude NASA called, they want their pc back.
@Game Over Dude, sense of humor called. You haven't visited it in a long time.
Dudes, y'all are a bunch of losers.
Dude, I know that already
Your mom just called, she's gay
Iron Sight - yup , here's a place in space , that no piece of human technology will ever reach . But trust us , we know it looks like this . LoL.
this space engine is so freaking cooool
mate Nd
It's called Universe Sandbox2(2 = squared)
The Internet Police no
No, its just called Space Engine and its free to download from their website.
I have it its very cool
I know right
13:05 .... "and we're about to go through the accretion disk... and boom, we're dead..."
after watching this video i spent 6 hours exploring the universe. :)
Completely unrelated question: How do we know life cannot exist in extreme environments similar to those on a gas giant or other planets that aren't so similar to earth? I understand that we know what makes our planet habitable but how do we know this is the only environment able to harbor life?
Donovan Louis
interesting..
the reason why we look for life similar to earth is cuz earth is the only place to harbor life and you only fish in the place known to have many fish its an example
I mean its possibly simply because even to this day scientists still don't know what actually "makes" life. How a series of inorganic atoms and molecules actually spark into being biological life.
There have been theories of life living in the clouds of gas giants, always moving and "flying".
Ikr! I've been asking this myself! What if the aliens drink lava or something we never know.
"we are going a little bit too fast" *Slows down to 1000Ly/sek
1.4 light year diameter accretion disk, wow...
its crazy man
I just checked it out in-game, the thing is huge, the lens effect also spans further than the accretion disc, the disc is a total of 3ly across!

Yeah!
The Black Hole is so huge, that even stars randomly generated inside of it!
I love taking "rides" through the universe with you. I really feel like I'm traveling in space while you chat with us about what we are seeing and experiencing.

Shame that god isnt real
actually, the dolphin sounds much different.
I am so glad your newer videos have improved in both narration and production. My exposure to you has been primarily videos released within the last year. And looking back at how much better your newer content is in comparison to something like this is surprising. Well done.
This galaxy is so big that even space engine can't handle it properly and decreased its star count. To make it look like a normal galaxy, increase the magnitude of stars to about 10 (if your PC can handle it tho, it can happen that it crashes).
I just did that, here's a screenshot of it on my 4k screen just before the game crashed on me. :P
i.imgur.com/XVEiQk6.jpg
that looks sick
I also did it for the milkyway i.imgur.com/3vesVqN.jpg
Personally I wouldn't know because I think Ansel is only available on Nvidia supported titles, it's possible with DSR, the issue is Space Engine is actually the only game that I own that actually uses 970's full 4gb of RAM, if I play too long at full 4k my PC will literally just reset itself, I've tracked it in afterburner and openhardwaremonitor. :P I made a video of the magnitude effect though, doesn't show anymore detail, but it does show the process of rendering those stars and how quickly it becomes stressful on the engine itself.
I may have to look into though, that would be very interesting.
Abraxas, that name was my old Xbox live gamer tag.
The space between galaxies prevents civilizations from destroying each other.
There are just as many stars outside of galaxies as inside. They're just out of focus.
You do realize several civilizations can exist on the same planet and in turn destroy each other? Earth is one of those places. Space doesn't prevent civilizations from destroying each other and themselves.
We seem to be doing a good job at it.
In truth, this is the most important civilization...to me. And Sid Meyers!
Edwin Jones -- the empty space between your ears prevents real thinking from taking place in your head.
Edwin Jones well if they 65 million light years away, and if they could see the earth from a very powerful telescope then they wouldn’t see humans they would see dinosaurs roaming on the earth. In order for aliens to invade us then they would have to be intelligent enough to travel faster than light speed, so you’re absolutely correct
Make a video explaning how astronomers and astrophysicists measure the size of objects in space
6 million light years wide
1 light year is about 5.8 trillion miles
🤯
That is so big that it's like not all that big of deal, because my mind simply can not process how large that actually is. There's no kind of comparison.
So in reality, is a much bigger deal than I can realize. In the most literal of ways. Its crazy!!!
But the universe is only 14 billion years old,,please explain.
@@Andy-in8ej it's about measurement not age
@@yoo4165 1 light year is not an age then.?
@@Andy-in8ej No. Light year is an measurement of distance, One light year = 6 trillion miles = 10 trillion kilometers approximately.
“What is that... thats not surpose to be in here” hahahahaha
better than no man's sky. 10/10 at least you can actually go to the galactic center
LOL!
kmoosa12 I want to let you know that your, 'joke' isn't funny... Sure No Man's Sky wasn't as good as Shawn Murray said it would be, but comparing it to Space Engine, is like comparing the colors black and white (not a racist joke...) There's nothing to compare, they're both completely separate things, No Man's Sky is a rushed survival game where the objective is to explore and do whatever, Space Engine is a tool that people can use to explore the universe as they please without worrying about surviving. So please people, stop with the shitty unfunny unoriginal non clever uninformed jokes about this tool being better than No Man's Sky...
Aaron Muck It's not as if there's that much gameplay in NMS, unless you like shooting rocks...
AAV Still, it's a game, and Space Engine is not, so you can't really compare the two...
Aaron Muck In terms of entertainment delivered Space Engine takes the cake. Plus it's free.
"my first time in ic 1101" sounds like a guy from 3017

Makes you feel really huge and important, doesn't it?
No it doesn't. It makes me feel small and insignificant
I can't help but think that one day humanity will make the galaxy our playground
ScarceSquad well as the penguins say: Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing!
@aliaz eid good way of looking at it, I'm envious
.....Unless your an instagram influencer.
Those who have created this simulator must have collected endless data about the known universe as well as endless hours of work. Absolutely amazing and mindblowing!
I think my eyes just died watching this with how bright the black hole is
A bit ironic lol

Good job Anton!
11:23 it’s the star got swallowed by a black hole
Star: HELP MEE!!
Black hole: No I will keep you in here FOREVER ♾
This may not be a question to your comment, but since your comment is similar to my question i’d just comment here, if you or somebody else know’s the answer ( not trying to ruin the joke, just qurious ) 😁
If a star/planet get swallowed by a black hole, does it stay there forever or does it eventually get spit out?
@@Hamzaben710 why did you include porn in this

@@atomic_wait Now that's something Londo and Delenn can both agree on!
This video blew my mind at the vastness of our observable Universe
Just a heads up and you may already know this, but central compact objects like black holes get kind of wonky when it comes to the interface. It won't tell you the mass unless you select one of it's orbiting stars and then actually examine the object. I noticed this when going to the center of clusters and checking out intermediate mass and supermassives while flying around. I just don't think the engine is coded in such a way to take them into account. They're basically the only thing in the sim that has multiple stars orbiting around a central compact object. Everything else is stars orbiting themselves and planets and other objects orbiting stars. You'll probably never find planets around the stars that orbit compact objects like that, it's rare...I've never seen it.
That black hole probably consumes dozens of stars every year but there's probably a few million that orbit around it for 50k light-years and that still is only a tenth of 1% of entire galaxy damn .
Space Engine is too terrifying to go around looking for scary stuff like that.
WTH its not
How is it scary
I have issues with insomnia. Believe it or not. I have found myself falling into a deep sleep starting one of your videos and laying my phone face down and just listening. I get to learn something and get rest. Thank you sir.
You explain so well. Without being boring nor repetitive. And you've got the whole accent thing going for you, lol. Great work and interesting content!
His American English accent is getting stronger. He actually sounds more Canadian! 😉
It would have been very interesting if you had superimposed our own super-massive black hole and our own galaxy on top of the video, to illustrate the differences in size.
Can you do a video talking about the Large Magellanic Cloud just outside the Milky Way Galaxy?
Yes
love your avatar btw
WOW
WOW
WyLee Fake poll
the biggest galaxy and it doesn't even have a proper name. how sad
InnerFire6213 it should be named after the bomb fat man
Some galaxies, stars, and planets have names like IC-1101.
I think there's one called WASP-09.
Purple Gabe I think wasp is a name for planets? I'm just assuming because of wasp 7b
InnerFire6213 l
Just the biggest in the known universe tho..
Well Anton that was a breathtaking journey. The universe is seriously huge and this galaxy is definitely the daddy of them all it would seem. Thank you for the trip. Regards David
Just came across your channel and love it! You explain things in away that I understand, keep it up!
This galaxy must have a magnificent Kwik-E-Mart: just imagine what splendid Squishees!
Anton, if you press "i" key with a object selected, Space Engine will show various informations about the galaxy, ex.: number of stars
You should be a teacher of Space.
He is a teacher of math
He is - this YT channel
+Vaperisor how do you know?
Michael Zhang no
naw
Wow. Someone on TH-cam that just has a normal voice. Makes a nice change.
Anton sounds more cheerful than usual today. Whatever it is, you're awesome man!
This is a fantastic video. What kind of system do you have to be able to go through the universe like that? Thank you.💜
6 million light years. Damn. Things like these make my problems seem..just very very small.
The interesting thing is how this galaxy doesn't cantain many stars in comparison to its size. Other smaller eliptical galaxies in Space Engine conatains much more, again in comparison to their size.
it's so large that space engine had to decrease its star count because it would crash the game otherwise
Virgo Supercluster obviously is our main home where Laniachea and the local group which is where our galaxy along with many many more galaxies including these huge ones Anton here is depicting is just what really baffles my mind ! Thank you Anton as always sir .
Tnx to the man maneuvering and talking he served to my own liking 🌟🌟🌟
He called me a wonderful person. You sir obtained a sub
Anton: ×casually strolls in and out of a black hole× 😱
Should maybe the title say, the Largest Known Galaxy in the Universe?
If this Galaxy is a billion light years away, how in the world does anyone know what anything looks like in it?
Mike Crabtree we don't know. This game (or simulator) is called Space engine. It uses scientific data and it's own algorithms to recreate real objects, and when it runs out of real data is forms randomly generated objects based upon real physics and science to simulate to the best of its abilities an accurate system.
I bought space engine and sandbox just because I am a wonderful person and big fan of Anton and this channel.
Anton is a ray of sunshine on TH-cam
Can you check out S5 0014+81? The largest and most massive black hole discovered
Not in space engine
Kingofgoldness RBLX RR Rip
cool dude
how was that possible? That none of the stars in the galaxy went supernova? Are you telling me that the galaxy is a collection of old stars that were made all at the same time?
Clarence Alfonso , good point.
Many of them did go supernova. What you see are only old stars because there is no more material to create new ones and older ones, nevertheless they are still there, are so dim that you can't see them any more.
Maybe once there were supernovas but a galaxy will only go through star generating phases with enough dust and gas to form big stars which are short lived and quickly recycle their material as heavier elements. Once the big ones are gone you have faint slowly acting red dwarfs which will never go supernova and can last 1 trillion years before becoming white dwarfs. Only galactic collisions can give life to an old galaxy by stirring new gas and dust. The opportunities for such galactic collisions will diminish as galaxies move away from each other.
I think such a galaxy will not support intelligent space travelling species because without new stars generating raw materials and high ordered energy they will burn out quickly, not being able to sustain civilisational spread through a galaxy of faint unexciting stellar action.
Remember, how far it is is also how many years ago it is. What does it look like today is an other thing!
It's a old galaxy. Some of them will go supernova but not at the same time.
love your videos dude,,,my fav channel !!!!
What a treat. Space Engine is amazing. Thanks for giving us that tour Anton!
We haven't even been to Mars yet and this dude out here travelling to other galaxies!
IC 1101 could swallow every Galaxy whole in local group including Milky Way, Triangulum Galaxy and Andromeda Galaxy
@Gabor P uh bro you high? Local Group is 10 mil LY
Well perhaps the biggest galaxy in the OBSERVABLE universe, but thats all we can really say.
Hurrrrr
Yeah, for all we know there's a galaxy that's either in or out of the observable universe that dwarfs IC 1101, much like IC 1101 dwarfs our Milky Way.
Anton, I have a question for you. Do you know where the edge of the universe is for sure?
Allow me to jump into the middle of this topic and add what little i know ...So if you take in count that after the BIG BANG the universe started expanding rapidly in every direction and never stopped doing so , in fact it never stopped accelerating while doing so and it's faster than light , which is the fastest we know so far ...you got your answer i think . In plain English nobody will ever be able to see or reach it's edge .
I bought Universe Sandbox 2 a long time ago, after being inspired by watching your videos!! Now, what I do is, I'll go into USB2 and have your video playing in the back ground!! That was actually a pretty cool way to tutorial USB2 also! (And I learned how to make wormholes from you, using this method as well!!) Thank you, Anton!! Love your videos, and I love Universe Sandbox 2!!
>M
Props to the camera person, did a great job 👍
You can easily work out the size of this black hole. It’s always in direct proportion to the size of its Galaxy. In this case, 60 times larger than our own super black hole in our Milky Way. This was discovered by Lynden Bell and Rees; there has since been great steps in forming our understanding by many Astro Physicists, some of who have received prestigious awards for their work, namely the Nobel Peace Prize. 😀
Just think if you were an intelligent being on a planet inside IC 1101. Because your galaxy is so opaque, you would not know that you were part of an enormous galaxy. Nor would you know that any other galaxies existed, or what a galaxy even is, for that matter. Your perspective of the universe would be completely different than ours. Everyone on your planet would almost certainly have a religion and hold very strong religious beliefs, especially that your race was the only intelligent beings in what you would very narrowly define as being the universe. It makes me claustrophobic just thinking about it. Isn't it great living on Planet Earth in the great elliptical and transparent Milky Way Galaxy, where we have a much better understanding of our galaxy and the universe?!!!
I never fucking thought about it!
Ur so amazing
What if that's the situation with our galaxy? What if the entirety of what we call the observable universe is just that?
@@michaelfjmusicBecause we are able to see into at least some of our Milky Way Galaxy, and we can observe at least hundreds of millions of other ones. It is now believed by astronomers and cosmologists that there are at least 2 trillion galaxies in the observable universe. Yes, scientists and even amateur astronomers are discovering more and more about the universe every single day.
Amazing comment
so, the observable, *galaxy?*
I always heard that The Milky Way was approx 100,000 L.Y. In diameter but now you say 125,000 L.Y. I always liked that our size was easy to remember but IC 1101 was the six million that you use. Did our measurement change? Or is it my memory that's at fault? I did always hear IC 1101 was elliptical but way too many experts have called it IC ten eleven ! Anyway, I love this galaxy!
The Milky Way actually is growing. Not sure how fast, tho.
Space is called Space for a reason...
There is just sooo much space out there in space
"if there is a species of super-smart aliens living somewhere in the middle here it's very likely that they might not actually ever detect us (...), they might even not be aware of other galaxies or other things outside of their galaxy (...)". Somewhere out there is some sentient something that looks at what we call our universe and wonders "if there is a species of something smart living somewhere in the middle of this blob..."
Imagine being stranded out there, talk about anxiety attack
Even if you had a ship that travels close to the speed of light you wouldn't be able to make it from one side of that galaxy to another if you lived for millions of years.
11:20 Evidence that we live in a super massive black hole :DD
The title is wrong… it should say "The BIGGEST Galaxy in the know Universe"
Raven *known with a lowercase “K”
It's not known universe dumbass
observable
This is incredible. I mean to think that there’s no other life out there is just nonsense. Some one out there is sitting on there hand held computer called a phone, watching TH-cam about other galaxies.
idk why I'm so obsessed with this galaxy. I can't stop watching videos on it. It somehow reminds me of the giant blue whale hanging from the ceiling of the Natural History Museum in New York. When I was a tiny boy I used to just stare at that whale and try to wrap my tiny 3-4-yr-old brain around the size of the thing. It was somehow simultaneously terrifying and mesmerizing.
you might find Pando interesting.
I thought our galaxy was "only" 100,000 light years across? Is 126,000 a recent more accurate update?
Those are the out scarts...
New estimates in the last few years suggest Milky Way is a lot bigger than thought, last estimates of diameter I read are 150-200K LY.
It's very difficult to measure, since we're trying to look thru it from far out on one side.
Expansion
It depends on where exactly you draw the line. The furthest brim of galaxies have incredibly sparse stars that can be found well outside the main diameter.
It's put on a little weight lately...
Is IC 1101 really the largest galaxy in our Universe?
of the known universe
It may be the largest one that we can observe. Giant galaxies grow bigger over time by accretion of smaller galaxies. Because light takes time to travel, we see very distant galaxies as they were early in the Universe's history, when they could not have yet grown large. Some of these distant galaxies could be larger than IC1101 by the time the Universe is its current age, but we can't see this yet because of light travel delay.
and IC1101 probably doesn't look the same since Anton said that most of the stars in that galaxy are at the end of their lifetime,so probably there are new stars there now,not all old and ancient,even the galaxy itself could have grown bigger ... or smaller
maybe future of universe because all galaxies collise all galaxies until unique galaxy very big and impossible (unique and last black hole) of that IC1101 with very hot like 100 quintillion of billions of Rankine (Renkine scale as temperature scale like Renkine is super hot of that Kelvin). it's impossible life because too hot universe, instead it's just theory scary.
you know universe is full of mystery and never discoverer true form of universe because full of danger and unknown like place horror never lived in out of galaxies as you go road without return. you know it's scary universe is too big and never safe for you.

Is it possible to find a sun with rings?
Im not sure
If there was a Sun with rings, the rings will turn into comets
Because of the heat
Yes, when a baby star is formed, it has lots of things orbiting around it, like hydrogen,silicon,iron,water ice etc.

Matus Motlo okay and you know I meant to the ice right?
If you're hitchhiking and Aton stops to pick you up, before you jump into his vehicle, beware! You may arrive to your destination a bit late, but what a ride! He'll take you to the far ends of the universe.
Excellent work, thank you Anton
The stars are not that dense in this galaxy, so maybe it contains not that much more stars from our Milky Way? Is the yellow sphere made of the gases mainly? It seems to be very empty place.
John Kaboom Actually the engine isn't generating that number of stars, because his system would probably crash. This is like 10 percent of the actual stars. That's what I think. I might be wrong :(
If one big bang started in space then were in one big galaxy that contains so many galaxies in one.
Is it possible.

Hey Anton you pinched the opening scene from the original Star Trek series.
Space - the final frontier. To Boldly go where no man has gone before!
But the weirdest thing was in just about every episode they discovered colonies of humans everywhere.

Why do you think they call it science FICTION!?!
Anton my friend..... OUTSTANDING work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anton, you are terrific! I love your videos!
Must be more stars in the Universe than grains of sand on earth ?
Fra Clarke yup
More stars than there are atoms on earth
Does each of these galaxies have a different God.
Better than bo man's sky
Kalel Pruitt do you mean No man's sky?
no shit kid
You don't filter out the fun. Anton I like your style.
Can you imagine the GOLD that exists out in space? Or how many other elements not on our periodic table? Mind blowing!!!!!!
You forgot to say "space out" :) at the end.
I wonder if the intelligent beings living on planets around the stars of IC 1101 know they are in a simulation...
What program/software is this?

wow absolutely mind blowing to see all this creations, can't wait to explore them
100 years ago we thought the milky Way the whole universe. A few years back they were saying the 'observable universe' was 93 billion light years across. Now they're saying that might only be 0.25% of the entire universe. It's like we live in a Planck universe and just discovered the rest of it.
