Largest galaxy yet is just discovered

It amazes me how much there is in the Universe we haven’t yet seen. Hopefully we will soon find life.

“The galaxy is roughly 16.3 million light-years long. For reference, our own galaxy measures under 106,000 light-years. That makes Alcyoneus roughly 153.77 times longer than the Milky Way.”

    I was gonna say that my grandfather had a '70 Galaxy (Galaxie...actually an LTD) that's the biggest one I can remember seeing.

    My first car (formerly Mom's commuter) was a '70 Galaxy 500 with 351. Pale yellow with midnight green vinyl seats and black vinyl top. Spent a lot of hours tweaking it with a timing light. :-)

    Have we found them...have they found us...or did they 'start' us??? It all really f*cks with my 'origins' view.
