Now this is what you call BIG, 4 Billion Light Years Big.

Astronomers have discovered the largest known structure in the universe - a group of quasars so large it would take four billion years to cross it while travelling at speed of light. That size is 1600 times larger than the distance from Earth's Milky Way to the nearest galaxy, the Andromeda.
