  • I just went to m 51 with this space engin program 3d space simulator i have and I went from earth all the way out to it and i seen that the diameter was about 24 kpc's in diameter.

  • 0:30 - 0:37 Is the Orion NEBULA....it not a GALAXY

    0.o....derp

  • YOU SUCK ALIENS HATE THIS MUSIC!

  • Garbage music to put to this.

  • all we are is dust in the wind dude

  • orion nebula ISNT a galaxy!!!

  • this songs title is black and gold ..i think

  • Comment removed

  • What is the song's name? guys

  • At 1:28 what a beautiful sight.

  • ,,,sombrero galaxy,,, scientits are racist too.

  • @darkbc1 how is that "racist" ??

  • names of them would have been nice

  • M51 ANDROMADE

  • Love the music. Who is this?

    

  • Largest Galaxies in the known Universe with gay soft music bar in the background! better than wikipedia i guess

  • FIFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­ 09 lol

  • Nope, M51 is not the largest known galaxy.

    The title belongs to IC-1101 galaxy with diameter of 5 million light years (50 times larger than that of our Milky Way). IC-1101 is about 1,070,000,000 light years away from Solar system and containts about 100 trillion stars.

    If IC-1101 were placed at our place, it would swallow all local galaxies like Milky Way, Andromeda, Canis Major, large and small Magenlanic Clouds and more and still have a lot of room around.

    So bow to the master ....

  • @ES350ES350 Thats nice you can read wikipedia. Write your own stuff next time.

  • @ES350ES350 :D i heard about all that on a ducumentry on youtube yesterday

  • Kind of a useless video. It has no information on the size of these galaxies so why title it as the largest?

  • @MickScarborough Since he doesn't know what he's talking about, providing statistics would give lie to his claims.

  • @MrDjJDK All except are photos, probably some (many? most?) are from Hubble, though even amateurs with modest sized scopes, a good CCD camera, and excellent sky conditions can get images nearly this good.

  • @skysurfer5cva ...all except ONE are photos....

  • Reason why space exist is to give us all hope we can leave earth for a better place leaving the government in space dust too live in true freedom.

  • @XhardChromeX

    It wouldn't even take 4 hours... Faster than the speed of light is more like a metaphor than an actual speed. It would literally be jumping through different locations in space not just simply flying by them. In other words we could travel to the edge of the universe in the amount of time it would take to get to Pluto.

  • Sombrero Galaxy?

    Is it full of mexicans? :O

  • who is the photographer?

  • @leonsk33 lol.. hubble

    

  • @leonsk33 Probably various sources (and one is an illustration, not a photo)

  • these pictures are amazing....

  • These galaxies are certainly not the biggest. The biggest galaxies are called cD galaxies, and are on the order of trillions of stars. The larges galaxy known is probably IC 1101, which contains 100 trillion stars. Most of the ones featured in this video are on the order of hundreds of billions, with the Whirlpool Galaxy being 1 trillion.

  • @Tzacharu123 The Whirlpool is smaller than the Milky Way and has a mass of about 160 billion solar masses. Otherwise, you are correct.

  • if the universe is the size of the earth, then our planet (earth) would be the size of an ant's head..

  • @Ironjagg well,the sun compared to canis majoris(big dog star) is about the size of an ants head.and canis majoris is one of billions of stars in this galaxy.of billions of gallaxies in the universe.so if the universe were the size of canis majoris.the earth would still be microscopic lol.you honestly can't compare the earth to the universe.or earth to canis majoris..or the sun to canis majoris.or canis majoris to the galaxy.or the galaxy to the universe, or the universe to God really:)

  • @400adub i agree

  • @Ironjagg Um...dont mean to correct you. If the universe was the size of the earth then the earth within that universe, comparatively, would be the diameter of 1/180th of an atom

  • @Ironjagg nope, the universe is infinite

  • @Ironjagg it would be smaller then that

  • triangulum galaxy, sorry

  • IC 1101 is so huge if it was placed over the milky way it would engulf Andromeda and the Traingulum galaxy. Seeing as Andromeda is millions of light years away that makes for a pretty big galaxy.

  • @12inchvertical holy shit it's that big? it's like the ssj4 vegeto of galaxies.

  • @12inchvertical and there are parts of the universe that are probably more inmense and are completely empty haha, insane.

  • feels like the earth is like a needle in a straw...

  • @ladyoscar4eva It's more like earth is one droplet of water in our vast oceans

  • Wonder what lives there.

  • If you become a ghost...i would recommend you go directly to Starcraft Universe. ;)

  • that is not the biggest galaxy... IC 1101 IS

  • The largest galaxy ever discovered is called;- Galaxy IC 1101. It is 6 million light years in diameter (that is more than 60 times wider than the Milky Way, which is 100,000 light years across).

  • /4Iu51KOurwg

    The biggest star...

  • DEAR VIEWERS,

    FOR ASTONISHING FACTS, JUST TYPE ON THE SEARCHING BOX:

    Quran and Science

    SEVEN PARTS! YOU MUST LIKE THEM!

  • @gulfland nah

  • way to give no perspective on size

  • check :  IC 1101

  • :D

    

  • This Is The Most Largest:IC 1101

  • 0:32 o.O it looks like a dead angel

  • sexy

    

  • Sombrero is the most awesome looking, to me.

  • the music scares me.....

  • 1:11 what galaxy is that? :o

  • ....to continue....The 7th, 8th, and 10th galaxies I can't ID, but my comment on the 2nd galaxy applies. The 8th and 10th galaxies are interacting galaxies, so you really have 13 galaxies, not 11, and not 10. The 9th galaxy is M31 (Andromeda), which is larger than the Milky way, but not by a tremendous amount. The last galaxy is M83, which is only about the size of M51.

  • ....to continue....The 4th object is the Orion Nebula, not a galaxy. The 5th object (and 4th galaxy) is M51, the Whirlpool, which is about 2/3 the diameter of the Milky Way but only 10% as massive. It's beautiful, but it isn't big. The 5th galaxy is artwork (not a photo) that is probably a depiction of our Milky Way, which has a diameter of about 100,000 to 120,000 light years and about 200 billion solar masses. The 6th galaxy is M104, the Sombrero, which is about the size of NGC 5128.

  • ....to continue....the 1st galaxy in the video is Centaurus A (NGC 5128) and it weighs in at about one trillion solar masses. This is bigger than our Milky Way but only about 1% the mass of IC 1101. I can't ID the 2nd galaxy, but it's obviously an edge-on spiral. Because ALL of the largest known galaxies are cD class ellipticals (not spirals), this cannot be one of the largest. The 3rd galaxy is mislabled: it's actually M101 (a large nearby spiral bigger than ours), not the modest-sized M51.

  • Please get your facts straight. None of the galaxies in this video are among the 10 largest galaxies we know of....not even close. See the comments by MacDragard below regarding IC 1101. There are numerous other giant ellipticals we know of that dwarf all of the galaxies in this video. Besides, the video includes 11 galaxies / interacting galaxies, not 10, and one object (the Orion Nebula) that isn't a galaxy at all but an emission nebula / star cluster that is inside our own Milky Way.

  • SOMBERO GALAXY FTW!!!!!!!!!

  • The largest galaxy known to man is IC 1101, a supergiant galaxy at the center of the Abell 2029 galaxy cluster and about 1.07 billion light years away from Solar system.

    IC 1101 has a diameter of approximately 5.5 million light years, 55 times larger than our Milky Way and is though as 2000 times as massive. This giant is galaxy of a massive cluster containing a mass (mostly dark matter) of roughly 100 trillion Suns. (Source: Wikipedia)

  • The larger the galaxy the larger the blackhole. Makes you wonder how massive some of those blackholes are.

  • ok.. sence all these galaxys have black holes in them, and they have the potential to 'collide'... gaining size..?.., sucking in all light, time, space,.. is it safe to say that all these super massive black holes might eventually all 'collide'... creating a 'black hole' thats so big it could eventually 'suck in' the whole universe...?

  • @GeorgeNada1 No, only the black holes in galaxies that aren't moving away from each other could possibly merge. There are some galaxies moving towards one another, but most galaxies are generally moving away from the rest. Andromeda is moving closer to us, and possibly a satellite galaxy or so might merge, but that's not nearly enough to "suck in the whole universe". :-) If our sun wouldn't be nova b4 then, it wouldn't even affect us, let alone the universe at large. :-)

  • @GeorgeNada1

    its possible

  • @GeorgeNada1 yup! . the big crunch theory. goes hand in hand with the big bang. you little philosipher you :P

  • Any scaling done relative to size? I need to know, things like these just blows my mind.

  • The "Event Horizon" can get to Andromeda in a jiffy.

  • shush!

  • The fastest surest way of reaching any star or galaxy in the universe within seconds has already been discovered, applied and it works.....,

  • WOW! he put in a nebula instead of a galaxy... this guy has his pictures and his facts wrong

    LOL!

  • Song about evolution what the fuck?

  • This video is idiotic. None of these are in the top ten, M51 is not the largest galaxy known to man, and one of the pictures isn't even a galaxy.

    What makes a person just make shit up like this?

  • @AngryPlanets Attention, one would assume. Thanks for paying. ;-)

  • I hate to have to be the one to tell you but your video caption is doling out some misinformation. M51 is not anywhere near close to being the biggest galaxy in the universe. The biggest galaxy every discovered (to date) is galaxy IC 1101, which is 6,000,000 light years in diameter (60x the milky way's diameter), and contains at minimum over 100 trillion stars. Just thought you might like to know. ^_^

  • @DRAKULU good observation.. I thought the same thing my friend, until I realized that this video was 2 years old anyhow... but still good observation

  • @WiZdOm17,

    Thank you for the compliment, but being self-critical, I should have specified better than I did. IC 1101 is technically the most "expansive" galaxy found to date; whereas M87 is the most "massive" galaxy known. Regardless, all science and astronomy is wide open to revision. I love this stuff. It's what makes life awesome.

  • Nice one...

    BTW where is IC 1011?? (The biggest known galaxy)

    Andromeda galaxy is 2x bigger than Milky way

    IC 1011 (6mln LY in diameter) is 30x bigger than Milky way (100 000 LY in diameter) :p

  • @Andrewp910917

    There's been confusion regarding the name. Some call it IC 1011, but more sources (especially wikisky.org) are calling it IC 1101, and since the IC 1101 image matched what I saw originally I'll revise it to IC 1101 as the biggest galaxy in the known universe to date. IC 1101 is located in the center of the gargantuan Abell 2029 cluster. At 6,000,000ly across, IC 1101's diameter is 60x that of our Milky Way's 100,000ly diameter.

  • Awsome

  • 0:30 is the orion nebula. Far from a galaxy. It's only like 25 lightyears across and is at a distance of about 1,300 lightyears in our own galaxy.

  • What is this music called?

  • i'd like to go to the delta quadrant so i could hang with 7 of 9

  • Well they are only the biggest ones that we can see the universe is very vast.

  • cool

  • It takes millions of years to get there they are so far I wonder when you Become a ghost if you can go there faster than the speed of light Lol

  • @JFKFOREVER2010 Nothing that we know of can travel faster than the speed of light, however if ghosts exist and you become one when you die then potentially you can travel at the speed of light as Ghosts are presumably weightless. Something with a weight can only travel at 99.9999'% the speed of light.

  • @JFKFOREVER2010 ..millions of years by current standards... 'scientists' once said that a human could never travel faster than 60mph because the 'pressure' would rupture the ear drum or something like that...but... technology has obviously proven them wrong... the great thing about science is it always has the chance to be proven wrong...

  • @GeorgeNada1 that was before enstein created the theory of relativity and E=MC2

  • @JFKFOREVER2010 it actually takes billions of years! oh and JFK #FTW

  • @JFKFOREVER2010 If you become a ghost... you have all the time in the world to go there. :p

  • @Cavaleiro08 Ikr ;D

  • @JFKFOREVER2010 No, a ghost is a human (consciousness) in it's energy state. Nothing, save time, space and apparently neutrinos, can travel faster than light. Remember E=mc2?

  • @JFKFOREVER2010 And you will take a pretty long time to go there xD

  • @JFKFOREVER2010 the luser ghosts stay here to scare people and the real ghost's gonna go check out wassup lol

  • @JFKFOREVER2010 i hope!!

  • Which one is the galaxy from Star Wars?

  • @MacDragard ha lol

  • @MacDragard 0:45 comes closest.

  • @MacDragard Its ours.

  • small galaxies

  • heh sombrero galaxy... 0:57

  • I just love looking at galaxies. Like the one at 0:30, for instance. It resembles a celestial campfire with a bright, blazing portion surrounded by thick black smoke. Yeah, there's really no fire and that smoke is gas and stardust, much worse to breathe than mere campfire smoke, but it's beautiful. This video inspired me to get my old telescope out of my mom's garage and stargaze. Nice work on this.

  • The Largest galaxy in the known universe is IC 1101,which is a whopping 6 million light years in diameter (compared to our own Milky Way which is 100,000 light years in diameter).

  • damn astronomy is interesting, wish i was still in high school so i can join a club. Is there any club for grown ups?

  • @Jak19835  Lmao yeah.. it's called Nasa my friend

  • 0:33 is the orion nebula...???

    not a galaxy

  • idk if i like this song because im high or its really a good song

  • uhh...names please?

  • 1:16 is that two galaxies fusing???

    or seperating er what

  • Yes, its two galaxy that has recently swept past each other.

  • 0:34 is the orion nebula or m42. the largest galaxy in the known universe is at the center of the galaxy cluster abell 2029 called IC 1011. its about 6 million light years across and a billion ly away. its an elliptical galaxy formed most likely by two spiral galaxies colliding.

  • Image what the size of those two spirasl galaxy were.

  • @ArataMusic1 yeah prolly pretty damn big. but theres also prolly another reason why its so big. it might have something to with the fact that its at the center of the cluster. im not sure what that would have to do with it but it must mean something.

  • Probably because since its at the center its at the center off mass, and it probably pulled in other galaxies witch merged with the galaxy making it larger,.

  • The largest known galaxy is not M51. M51 is only around 60,000 light years in diameter, nearly a 1/4 of the diameter of our galaxy.

    The largest galaxy in the known universe is Abel2029, around 5 million light years in diameter.

  • how did you know?

  • I researched it.

  • ohh...ok...

  • go on dagobah(.)biz/flash/Scale_of_t­he_Universe(.)swf

    it is a flash thingy which shows the scale of the universe and its really awesome.

    it says that IC 1101 is the largest known galaxy. its 5000000 light years big

  • 0:33 isn't a galaxy, it's a nebula of gas within a galaxy.

  • Purty!

  • Great video...impressive.

  • jsut to clarify, these are the biggest galaxies in terms of size, number of stars... not the biggest in terms of how massive they are!

  • @bobbocesu19 You've just put pictures of galaxies, and didn't even try to make top 10 or something, or the names on the pictures at least.

    How are Andromeda, or The Sombrero galaxies among the biggest galaxies in the Universe?? And what's with 0:36?

  • @bobbocesu19 more stars = massive... if you dont understand how big a star is.

  • @bobbocesu19 whats the difference between size and massivness

  • @bobbocesu19 nigga that makes no sence. it should be messures in size (volume) of the perimiters. who gives a fuck about denceness, we have enough of that here on earth

  • It would be more impressive if you mentioned how big they actually are and did some comparisons with our galaxy

  • names ?

  • These are nice pics.

  • Cheers

  • Thanks! ;D

  • COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
