The Immense Size of Our Universe Visualized with Space Engine

UPDATE: the diameter of our observable universe is estimated to be about 93 billion light-years, NOT 28 billion light-years like the video text states. so our observable universe is 2.9 times larger in diameter than what's visible in the video.


Space Engine travel speed is the fastest possible, without missing closer stars and galaxies!
