For years, scientists have worked to chart the universe’s massive structure, aiming to test key models of cosmology. These efforts also help uncover how galaxies form and change over time. While most ...

Is it possible to understand the Universe without understanding the largest structures that reside in it? In principle, not ...

Seen as a long strand with smaller threads branching, the Quipu superstructure contains 68 galaxy clusters spanning 1.4 ...

Quipu, Hercules, Serpens–Corona Borealis and Sculptor–Pegasus are all larger than the fifth and final superstructure highlighted in the study, the Shapley supercluster, which had previously ...

Long before colonization, the people of Peru kept track of important information using a mysterious coding system of strings and knots called a quipu.

Newly discovered Quipu, a superstructure in which galaxies group together in clusters and clusters of clusters, is the largest known structure in the universe in terms of length, scientists claim.

Astronomers have found the largest structure in the universe so far, named Quipu after an Incan measuring system. It contains a shocking 200 quadrillion solar masses.

Researchers say they've discovered the largest known object in the universe, a galactic superstructure called Quipu.

This makes Quipu the largest known structure in the local universe, and understanding these structures can help scientists learn more about the evolution of the cosmos.

The quipu is a traditional Andean counting device that uses colored strings and knots in lieu of paper and numbers.

Quipu is not alone in its grandeur. The researchers also identified four other massive superstructures, each rivaling some of the largest known formations in the universe. These include the ...
