  1. There is an object known as the "Great attractor", way out in space towards which most of everything, is drifting, this is the largest known object, but it is not a structure as some forms are, in the universe, but google it anyway, for more info, About 28 million years at the speed of light to cross it !


  2.   Galaxies are the largest objects but galactic clusters are the largest known structures.

  3. Uranus

  4. It depends on what you mean by "object". A galaxy is pretty big. Our galaxy has possibly 100 billion stars in it, and it is not the biggest. But is a galaxy an object? Or is it just a collection of stars.

    A big black hole is definitely a single object. The big ones at the centres of galaxies typically have a mass of 100 million suns, but that's a lot smaller than a galaxy.

    You could say that the local supercluster of galaxies which includes hundreds of galaxies, is a single object so it may be the biggest thing known.

  5. I think it's a super nova.

  6. s'gotta be something made from 'dark matter' that we haven't seen yet cause we can't, even though it makes up the largest percentage of the universe

  7. galaxies....

    there are some stars that when compared to our sun  is like comparing pluto and our sun....

  8. Galaxies are very large "objects"

  9. Victoria Beckham's Ego

  10. The largest structure known is a conglomeration of galaxies called the Sloan Wall.  There are millions of galaxies tied gravitationally into a vast wall type structure.  It is about one billion light years from us, and almost 1.4 billion light years across!  It was discovered by a Princeton team in 2003, based on data from the Sloan Sky Survey.  The largest known single object is a star in the Pistol Nebula, and known as the Pistol Star.  It has about 100 times the mass of our Sun, and is about 10 million times as bright.  This is about the theoretical maximum size for a star to exist.

  11. sun,moon,planets,stars

  12. my mother

  13. black holes

  14. The 'biggest known object' in the universe is one of these bad *** stars, KW Sagitarri, V354 Cephei and KY Cygni. Each one of them is 1500 bigger than our cute little sun! Amazing dimensions.

  15. How do you define "object"? There can be the biggest star, the biggest galaxy or the biggest nebula. Most of stuff in the Universe is made of gas and dust, and it's hard to decide what's considered and object and what's considered a structure.

  16. An enormous amoeba-like structure 200 million light-years wide and made up of galaxies and large bubbles of gas is the largest known object in the universe, scientists say.

    The galaxies and gas bubbles, called Lyman alpha blobs, are aligned along three curvy filaments that formed about 2 billion years after the universe exploded into existence after the theoretical Big Bang.


  17. Well its not a black hole because at a point after in its life it's a size of an atom - and object , the thing that theoretical physict's would guess its dark matter which is every where.

  18. The biggest object/mass was the beginning I.E The Big Bang!....idoubt anything that remains wiill be close in size.
