Big Ring information


The Big Ring is a ring-shaped large-scale structure formed by galaxies and galaxy clusters near the constellation Boötes with a diameter of 1.3 billion light years, located 9.2 billion light years away.[1] It was discovered in 2024 by Alexia Lopez, a PhD student at the University of Central Lancashire.[2] In 2021, she discovered the Giant Arc, a similar structure located in the same region.[3] It is a significant astronomical discovery, as it challenges the Cosmological Principle. Currently, there is no known cause for its formation within our current understanding of the universe. The Big Ring is the seventh large structure discovered that contradicts the understanding of smooth matter distribution across the largest scale of the universe.[4]
