EldwinSchrodinger @ A Void Within the Void
|
loving you always ♥
Whats to say, Imagine a cosmic blank spot that has no stray stars, no galaxies, no sucking black holes, not even mysterious dark matter. It is 1 billion light years across of nothing. That's an expanse of nearly 6 billion trillion miles of emptiness. Baffled by scientist around the world,
"This is 1,000 times the volume of what we sort of expected to see in terms of a typical void," said Minnesota astronomy professor Lawrence Rudnick, author of the paper that will be published in Astrophysical Journal. "It's not clear that we have the right word yet ... This is too much of a surprise."
The blue zone in this image represents an unexplained empty zone in the universe about 1 billion light-years wide. Image from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from the big bang. Blue represents the cooler spot and probably a "barren" space.
