  2. Observable universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observable_universe

    The comoving distance from Earth to the edge of the observable universe is about 14.26 gigaparsecs (46.5 billion light-years or 4.40 × 10 26 m) in any direction. The observable universe is thus a sphere with a diameter of about 28.5 gigaparsecs [27] (93 billion light-years or 8.8 × 10 26 m). [28]

  3. Cosmological horizon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_horizon

    It represents the boundary between the observable and the unobservable regions of the universe, so its distance at the present epoch defines the size of the observable universe. Due to the expansion of the universe, it is not simply the age of the universe times the speed of light, as in the Hubble horizon, but rather the speed of light ...

  4. Shape of the observable universe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_of_the_universe

    Hence, it is unclear whether the observable universe matches the entire universe or is significantly smaller, though it is generally accepted that the universe is larger than the observable universe. The universe may be compact in some dimensions and not in others, similar to how a cuboid [citation needed] is longer in one dimension than the ...

  5. SpaceEngine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpaceEngine

    SpaceEngine creates a 1:1 scale three-dimensional planetarium representing the entire observable universe, combining real astronomical data with scientifically accurate procedural generation algorithms. Users can travel through space in any direction or at any speed and can move forwards or backwards in time. [4]

  6. Black hole cosmology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_cosmology

    A black hole cosmology (also called Schwarzschild cosmology or black hole cosmological model) is a cosmological model in which the observable universe is the interior of a black hole. Such models were originally proposed by theoretical physicist Raj Kumar Pathria , [ 1 ] and concurrently by mathematician I. J. Good .

    Discovered through gamma-ray burst mapping. Largest-known regular formation in the observable universe. [8] Huge-LQG (2012–2013) 4,000,000,000 [9] [10] [11] Decoupling of 73 quasars. Largest-known large quasar group and the first structure found to exceed 3 billion light-years. "Giant Arc" (2021) 3,300,000,000 [12] Located 9.2 billion light ...

  8. Multiverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiverse

    Black-hole cosmology is a cosmological model in which the observable universe is the interior of a black hole existing as one of possibly many universes inside a larger universe. [89] This includes the theory of white holes , which are on the opposite side of space-time .

  9. Reality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reality

    Reality can be defined in a way that links it to worldviews or parts of them (conceptual frameworks): Reality is the totality of all things, structures (actual and conceptual), events (past and present) and phenomena, whether observable or not. It is what a world view (whether it be based on individual or shared human experience) ultimately ...
