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.
We are at the centre of the observable universe, keyword being 'observable'.
Yes. There are at least 90 billion trillion or more planets in the observable universe.
It is believed that the Universe is much, much bigger than the observable Universe, but exactly how much bigger is not currently known.It is believed that the Universe is much, much bigger than the observable Universe, but exactly how much bigger is not currently known.It is believed that the Universe is much, much bigger than the observable Universe, but exactly how much bigger is not currently known.It is believed that the Universe is much, much bigger than the observable Universe, but exactly how much bigger is not currently known.
Yes, a googol is larger than the estimated number of atoms in the observable universe. A googol is 1 followed by 100 zeros, while the estimated number of atoms in the observable universe is around 10^80.
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.
the universe is isotropic & homogeneous, meaning there is no center. the observable universe has a center, which is the part of the universe we can see. we are at the center of the observable universe.

There are an estimated 1011 (100 billion) galaxies in the observable Universe. It is not known how much bigger the Universe is, compared to the observable part.

The observable Universe has somewhere around 1011 galaxies. The entire Universe is much larger than the observable Universe, but currently, it is not known exactly how much larger. It might be infinite in size, but in any case, it is estimated that the Universe is a lot larger than the observable Universe.
They mean the part of the universe that we can see with the naked eye, through telescope, or the amount of light years we can travel without dying
Yes. There are at least 90 billion trillion or more planets in the observable universe.
WikiSky will not map all 100 billion galaxies in the observable universe
There are an estimated 1011 galaxies in the observable Universe. The entire Universe is much bigger than the observable Universe. It may be infinitely bigger, but it is not currently known whether this is the case.
There are estimated to be around 100 billion galaxies in the observable universe, with each galaxy containing hundreds of billions of stars. This means that the total number of stars in the observable universe is in the order of 10^24 (1 septillion) stars.

The farthest light has traveled is 13.8 billion light years from Earth, which is the observable edge of the observable universe.
