The Largest Galaxy
Our Milky Way Galaxy is enormous, almost 126,000 light years in length. To put it in perspective, that’s approximately 756 trillion miles long! Amazing. Thing is, we are labeled an intermediate galaxy in our known universe. And we are very tiny in comparison to IC 1101, the largest galaxy with an approximate diameter of 6 million light years, a little more than 60 times larger than our Milky Way. In this episode of “What Da Math,” host Anton Petrov takes us on a surreal journey through IC 1101.
