Most Powerful Cosmic Explosions Reveal Largest Structure In The Universe Is Even Bigger Than Thought

Gamma-ray bursts reveal that the Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall might be bigger than previously thought.

Astronomers Just Made a Big Discovery About the Universe's Largest Cosmic Structure

The largest cosmic structure ever observed by astronomers is revealing its biggest cosmic secrets yet, with a little help from powerful gamma-ray bursts. The most energetic explosions observed in our universe, new research that leverages the power of gamma-ray bursts is helping astronomers chart the immense architecture of the cosmos, offering new ways of testing foundational assumptions about the structure of the universe. These incredibly powe…

New Study Finds Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall Bigger and Nearer Than Thought

GRBs uncover a more massive and closer Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall, reshaping cosmic scale theories.Astronomers have found that the Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall—the largest known structure in the universe—is even larger and closer than previously thought. Spanning 10 billion light-years, this immense cluster of galaxies was traced using gamma-ray bursts. The findings challenge long-standing theories of cosmic uniformity and may re…

Astronomers Discover the Universe’s Largest Structure is Bigger Than We Thought

Astronomers have just revealed that the largest known structure in the universe, the Hercules–Corona Borealis Great Wall, might be even larger than we initially thought. The latest findings, published in a preprint study hosted on arXiv, suggest that this massive cosmic wall could stretch over 10 billion light-years, exceeding its previous estimate of 9.8 billion light-years. Using gamma-ray bursts—incredibly luminous bursts of high-energy light…
