This galaxy, NGC 6872, is over 522,000 light-years from one end to the other making it the largest known galaxy. Think about a light-year. This is the distance light travels in one year, and light travels at a speed of 186,000 miles per second. Now that is a math problem for you, one with lots and lots of zeros! Do you think maybe there might be some life there, anywhere?
