Researchers Discover the Largest Radio Galaxy Ever — At Least 16 Million Light-years Long

A research team headed by Martijn Oei, a Dutch PhD student, has identified a radio galaxy—of at least 16 million light-years long—by a stroke of luck. The plasma plumes pair is the hugest structure made by a galaxy known so far. The result challenges some long-believed hypotheses about the evolution of radio galaxies.
