The largest Galaxy in the universe!

Researchers may have found the largest Galaxy in the universe. The universe is mostly empty space, in fact matter comprises just a mere 4.2× 10 power 21 percent of the universe.
It can take any form, including gas clouds, rocks and stars; scattered across the vast emptiness.

The matter can clump up due to Gravity and form the massive structures we know as galaxies. Galaxies are made of stars and their planets, as well as gas and dust.
These clusters of matter can come in many shapes and sizes.

In our universe, there are four types of galaxies.
we have spiral galaxies, like the Andromeda galaxy, which is our nearest Galatic neighbor.
Barred spiral galaxies are similar to spiral galaxies, but they have a bright bar of stars.
Our milky way galaxy is a barred spiral galaxy. There are also elliptical galaxies like the Messier 32 galaxy found near Andromeda.Finally there are Irregular galaxies which get their name for their lake of a distinct shape.

We also categorize galaxies by size. There are three Galatic size categorize: dwarf, mid-range spiral and gigantic elliptical. Even dwarf galaxies, which are the smallest type can be light years and contains tens of millions of stars. The largest galaxies can have a trillion stars.

Recently, astronomers found a galaxy whose mass blew away the competition. IC 1101 is a galaxy located roughly one billion light years away and it is the largest galaxy ever observed. It has a mass of nearly 100 trillion stars and is roughly 6 million light years in diameter.This massive galaxy is large enough to not only consume the milky way with ease, but it could also swallow out nearest neighbors and all of us.
1C 1101 is hypothesized to have been formed by the collision of smaller galaxies. It is believed that many of these colliding galaxies were approximately the same size as our own.

Astronomers used telescopic observation to study the galaxy from Earth. While studying light from galaxy, researchers made a surprising discovery.
It a galaxy has a blue tint, it is indicative of active star formation.Despite its massive size, 1C 1101 has a yellow tint. This is surprising because it indicates that 1C 1101 is creating new stars very slowly. The sluggish start generation could spell the doom for the galaxy, unless it continues to collide with smaller galaxies.
1C 1101 could continue to die off and fade away forever.
