Do We Live in Void? Recent Studies Suggest That We Live In A Galactic Void

Discover the astonishing revelation that our Milky Way might be floating in a massive cosmic void! This episode dives into how this vast emptiness could reshape our understanding of the universe. Join us as we explore the implications of this cosmic discovery and what it means for our view of space, time, and existence itself!

Isn't it kind of a good thing that we exist in a comparably empty part of the universe? It has most probably avoided us many catastrophic cosmic events and given life a safe and stable planet to grow.

[JeffSparrow]

Maybe this void is the only reason why there is life possible here. Less interference, stray black holes and radiations from other galaxy's?

Yes, our galaxy, the Milky Way, is located within a vast network of galaxy filaments and voids. Specifically, it resides in a region called the Local Sheet, which is a smaller section of the Laniakea Supercluster.

The Laniakea Supercluster is a massive network of galaxy filaments that stretches over 500 million light-years across. Within this supercluster, there are several vast voids, including the Supergalactic Void and the Giant Void.

Our galaxy is situated near the edge of the Supergalactic Void, which is a relatively empty region of space that stretches over 1.1 billion light-years in diameter. However, we are not directly within a void, but rather in a denser region of the universe.

Keep in mind that the universe's structure is complex and dynamic, with galaxies and galaxy clusters moving through the vast expanse of space. So, our position within the universe's web-like structure is not fixed and has changed over cosmic time.

As an Australian, I can relate to that isolated feeling!

Jokes aside, Humans as a life form see our reality through a lens of perception that is biologically limited. We all share the same base perception (we all see a tree or a rock) but our consciousness allows us to build individual layers upon this base perception. These layers give rise to various religions and popular beliefs. Science is no different, we run tests, do math and apply the results in the form of another layer of perception. This does not mean that we always get it right, and scientist are more than happy to admit this. The reality is that we may never be able to actually see reality because of our biological constraints. Our DNA is our blueprint to perception and all life forms on this planet share the same original source in earths Gene pool.
This begs a question, If life formed on another planet, with a different DNA pool, could we exist within their perception? Or could they exist within our perception?
The entire universe is a blank canvas of nothing but atoms, until a conscious mind begins to paint a picture on it.

The void is called the “bozone”. It protects the universe from Earth’s harmful effects.

Andromeda is 2.5 million light years away. Not to mention the various star clusters around us like the large and small Magellan clouds and the Virgo supercluster. So we're not quite alone.

[NicolasMiari]

All the other galaxies are like "Eww, humans!"

[whateverism]

Good. Last thing that we need is neighbors visiting 😂😂😂

[ArnoldJudasRimmer..]

As an extreme introvert...

*I feel happy about this*

[dug]

I’m feeling a profound emptiness I need to go to the local hole

[danhnguyen-fneb]

The Milky Way might live in an area of lower density but not a void. There's a big difference between a bubble of lower density and a void. There's just too many galaxies going out to tens of millions to hundreds of millions and finally to billions of light years. If we were in a void there would be some galaxies at the various distances but not what we see in the cosmos today. Remember the Great Attractor is out there and is less than a half billion lyr's away. The Great Attractor is influencing millions and millions of galaxies including the Milky Way and the local group. Would a void really be a void with the Great Attractor in it with everything it is attracting to it?

[EtutEagl]

Aliens saw us develop adrenaline and started moving our galaxy out of the community. “We know where this goes, not having those in the galactic community again.”

[whiteowl]

Basically, our view may be distorted, and the laws of physics have barley been tapped. Outside of our void, physics may be harsher in a way that life cannot happen. Which means we could be truly alone in a universe we understand only as far as we know we're wrong. Nice paper

[daverei]

Potential answer to the Fermi paradox - if be accident then we are in a safe part of the dark forest - if deliberate then we are in a zoo.

[garyfilmer]

Not isotropic…but a far more complicated universe. Thank you for this intriguing video.

[rajkumarrajrt]

The universe is a place where we are searching more and it becomes more and more fascinating and arises unanswered questions and questions only.

[AncientGranules]

Very interesting and best science news at present... Very very important!
Happy to be alive in these times of huge discoveries
Addition:
There are a lot of things we do not know and most are theories...

[chrisvallianos]

The problem with staring into the void, is that sometimes, it stares back into you.

[r.l.watkins]

0:00-0:10 " Well, that about sums it up for me"

[alanhiltoncaradventure]

Maybe the universe just put us here so we couldn't harm anyone else around us almost like solitary confinement.
