Wow! This has a size of about 1.7 million lightyears, which is nine times the size of the milky way, and nearing the distance to Andromeda which is about 2.5 million light years.
- geuis 5y ago12 million is much further away than 2.5.

- saltcured 5y agoThe earlier post is comparing the size (1.7 million) to the distance (2.5 million) to give a sense of scale.
