This Might Be the Largest Thing in the Universe 0 (0)

If you thought galactic clusters were the largest structures in the universe you’d be wrong because, on a larger scale, even these clusters clump together in huge cosmic filaments. These filaments are the largest structures in the universe, stretching hundreds of millions of light-years in length and about 20 million light-years in thickness.
