JADES-GS-z13-0 is a high-redshift Lyman-break galaxy discovered by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) during NIRCam imaging for the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) on 29 September 2022.
Listed below are galaxies with diameters greater than 700,000 light-years. This list uses the mean cosmological parameters of the Lambda-CDM model based on results from the 2015 Planck collaboration, where H 0 = 67.74 km/s/Mpc, Ω Λ = 0.6911, and Ω m = 0.3089. [3]
It possesses a diffuse core which is the largest core of any galaxy known to date, [5] and contains a supermassive black hole, one of the largest discovered. [5] IC 1101 is located at 354.0 megaparsecs (1.15 billion light-years) from Earth. It was discovered on 19 June 1790, by the German-British astronomer William Herschel. [6]
JADES-GS-z14-0 is a high-redshift Lyman-Break galaxy in the constellation Fornax that was discovered in 2024 using NIRcam as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) program. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It has a redshift of 14.32, making it the most distant galaxy and astronomical object ever discovered.
CGCG 049-033 is an elliptical galaxy, located some 680 million light-years from Earth, [2] in the constellation of Serpens. It is the central galaxy (BCG) of the galaxy cluster Abell 2040. [3] CGCG 049-033 is known for having the longest galactic jet ever discovered. The beam is about 1.5 million light-years long and was discovered in December ...

This is a list of the largest cosmic structures so far discovered. The unit of measurement used is the light-year (distance traveled by light in one Julian year; approximately 9.46 trillion kilometres). This list includes superclusters, galaxy filaments and large quasar groups (LQGs). The structures are listed based on their longest dimension.
