With current technology, astronomers are able to detect objects (galaxies)

out to about 14 billion light years from us in every direction. We don't know

what's farther than that.

How many plancks can you fit in the observable universe?

To estimate how many Planck lengths fit in the observable universe, we first note that the diameter of the observable universe is about 93 billion light-years, or approximately (8.8 \times 10^{26}) meters. The Planck length is approximately (1.6 \times 10^{-35}) meters. Dividing the diameter of the observable universe by the Planck length gives roughly (5.5 \times 10^{61}) Planck lengths across the observable universe, indicating an extraordinarily vast number of these tiny units can fit within it.


How many parsecs does the Universe has?

The observable universe is estimated to be about 93 billion light-years in diameter, which translates to roughly 28.5 billion parsecs. However, the entire universe may extend beyond what we can observe, and its true size is still a subject of research and debate in cosmology. Thus, while we can quantify the observable part, the total number of parsecs for the entire universe remains unknown.


How long would it take to travel from the end of the universe to Earth?

Well, since the end of the Universe is constantly expanding, and since it would depend on how fast you are going, it could take 1 year to 10000000000000000000000 years or more. There is also very little evidence that the Universe actually has an ending.


What does observable universe mean?

The observable universe refers to the portion of the universe that can be seen from Earth, limited by the distance light has traveled since the Big Bang, approximately 13.8 billion years ago. This region encompasses all celestial objects whose light has had enough time to reach us, creating a spherical boundary around our planet. Beyond this boundary, there may be more universe that we cannot observe due to the finite speed of light and the expansion of space. The observable universe is estimated to be about 93 billion light-years in diameter.
