	Known universe - Uncyclopedia
		Not to be confused with the 'Unknown Universe'
		The Known Universe that we live in is actually Known Universe II - the original Known Universe "retired" when his back was broken by the evil Bane.
		The Known Universe II never got the same critical review as the original due to the fact that it reused the same concept that had worked so well in the original, but on a cruise ship instead of a bus.

	SPACE.com -- Scientists to Map Known Universe
		The observatory and its gargantuan dish were built in 1963 by the Department of Defense.
		The telescope's 1974 discovery of a twin neutron stars won a pair of scientists the Nobel Prize in 1993 by proving Albert Einstein's theory of gravity waves.
		However, the dish is best known for its cameo appearances in such films as "Contact" and the James Bond adventure "Golden Eye," although the search for alien life takes up less than 1 percent of the telescope's time.

		According to a study by Australian astronomers there are 70 sextillion (70,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) stars in the known universe.
		He said there were likely many million more stars in the universe but the 70 sextillion figure was the number visible within range of modern telescopes.
		The universe is so big light from the other side of the universe "hasn't reached us yet," The Age newspaper quoted him as saying.

		The entire known universe is estimated to be some hundred billion light years across (and expanding).
		That something was likely another similar universe that collapsed into the singularity that for unknown reasons became unstable and burst forth the known universe.
		Thus the conclusion that the universe is in an infinite cycle of matter and energy crossing back and forth and volumes like our known universe collapsing and being reborn by huge and silent explosions.

	Diameter of the Known Universe
		The universe that we know is made up of the solar system (sun, moon, and all of the planets), the stars, the galaxies, and the cosmos.
		Modern science says that the known universe extends about 10 billion light years in all directions, and consists of 200 billion galaxies.
		That would be the radius of the universe, and twice that -- 156 billion light-years -- is the diameter.

		They have accepted two separate theories that explain how the universe works: Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, which describes the universe on a very large scale, and quantum mechanics, which describes the universe on a very small scale.
		Known as the Standard Model, this theory describes the elementary particles and three of the four fundamental forces that serve as the building blocks for our world (see the Elementary Particles chart and the Fundamental Force Particles chart for a listing of these particles).
		Under the auspices of string theory, the universe may never have shrunk to a point at which it disappeared but rather may have begun at a miniscule size—the size of a single string.

		In the early 1900s astronomers discovered a phenomenon known as red shift—that light from distant galaxies is shifted toward the red end of the color spectrum.
		Of the expansion of the universe, Barrow writes: "This was the greatest discovery of twentieth- century science, and it confirmed what Einstein's general theory of relativity had predicted about the universe: that it cannot be static.
		In other words, what astronomers concluded they were seeing was the aftermath of an unimaginably powerful event that hurled matter and energy outward in all directions to form the known universe—thus the name "big bang." In reality, what they were observing was the fact that the universe had to have a beginning.

	The Hierarchy of Structures in the Universe
		The universe is defined by The American Heritage Dictionary, Third Edition (Electronic Version 3.6p) as "all matter and energy, including Earth, the galaxies and all therein, and the contents of intergalactic space, regarded as a whole." It is known that the universe is expanding rapidly, and that all other galaxies are "rushing" away from us.
		Scientists do not know for sure how the universe came into being, but the accepted theory states that all the matter in the universe was once condensed into one tiny region similar to a fl hole.
		Studies show that there are at least 1 billion galaxies in the known universe, all associated with a galaxy group, yet each separated from its closest neighbor by millions of light years.

		If the universe is 16 billion years old (ie 16 billion years have lapsed since the big bang) then the universe cannot be bigger than 32 billion light years across.
		This larger figure is known as the comoving distance and is using models where the expansion of space is accelerating and the earliest objects are now moving away faster than light, or I should say the space in between them and us is now expanding faster than light.
		When it comes to the expansion of the universe, dark matter and dark energy, as far as I know all we really have to go on is the red-shift of observed objects and there may indeed be other expanations for that red-shift.

	Universe - Deistpedia, the Deist Encyclopedia
		observable universe, or visible universe are often used to describe the part of the universe that we can see or otherwise observe.
		If the universe is indeed spatially finite, as described, then traveling in a "straight" line, in any given direction, would theoretically cause one to eventually arrive back at the starting point.
		Strictly speaking, we should call the stars and galaxies "views" of stars and galaxies, since it is possible that the universe is multiply-connected and sufficiently small (and of an appropriate, perhaps complex, shape) that we can see once or several times around it in various, and perhaps all, directions.

	The Universe within 14 billion Light Years - The Visible Universe
		Because light in the universe only travels at a fixed speed, we see objects at the edge of the universe when it was very young up to 14 billion years ago.
		The visible universe appears to have a radius of 14 billion light years because the universe is about 14 billion years old.
		Galaxies we see near the edge of the visible universe emitted their light when they were much closer to us, and they will now be much further away.

	03.12.98 - Discovery pushes back boundaries of known universe
		Astronomers using the largest optical and infrared telescopes in the world have found the most distant known object in the cosmos, a young galaxy in existence when the universe was only six percent of its present age, and nearly 90 million light-years farther than any previously discovered.
		The paper was written by Arjun Dey, a Hubble Postdoctoral Fellow at The Johns Hopkins University, astronomers Hyron Spinrad, Daniel Stern and James R. Graham at the University of California, Berkeley, and Frederic H. Chaffee at the W.M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii.
		The previous most-distant known object was a galaxy at redshift 4.92, discovered by astronomers using the Keck and Hubble telescopes.

	Worldwide Church of God: Is there a Creator God?
		Possibility number two: the entire universe that we see and all life on earth do not really exist, but are actually a dream in someone else's mind.
		However, this in turn means that the someone else who is having the dream must exist, and therefore he, or whatever it is, is greater than the known universe since he or it was able to create the entire universe in its mind as a dream.
		I seriously doubt that this is the case, because all we have been able to discover so far about ourselves, the earth, and the known universe is internally consistent and unbelievably complex.

	The Wave Function of the Universe
		Wave-functions are largest where that particle is observed to be, but also extend throughout the known universe in accordance with the sum-over-paths method.
		The wave-function is large near our own universe and infinitesimal near others in which life is impossible or the known laws of physics do not apply.
		According to them, the multitude of universes should be connected by wormholes, as in the second image below, although these wormholes are not an efficient or readily available means of transportation.

	Quickie Questions - Astronomy Anomalies - Galaxies
		The number of planets in our galaxy is tough to answer, because we haven't been able to look closely at the vast majority of stars for planets that might be circling those stars.
		As many as 50% of the galaxies in the Universe are grouped together in clusters and super clusters which in turn are organized into huge strings and walls of galaxies millions of light years across (see a computer simulation representing this pattern here).
		So, unlike a three dimensional atom which is part of a three dimensional cell which is part of a three dimensional human, this "something bigge r" would have to be of a completely different set of dimensions, meaning we could have no physical contact with it.

		Several new measurements of galaxies and clusters in the early universe are reporting structures involving galaxies and clusters that are larger than expected with the new standard "dark-energy" cosmology.
		dust in the universe is important because it is a measure of the number of stars that created it, of the number of stars that are cloaked by it, and of the amount of distortion created in measurements of the distant universe.
		This simulation hypothesized that 1/3 of the universe is composed of slow moving "cold dark matter", and 2/3 composed of fast moving "hot dark matter." The areas of high and low density resulting from this computer simulation are similar to those observed by astronomers in the real universe.
