Using Australia's ASKAP telescope, scientists have found 15 new giant radio galaxies, each spanning up to 12.4 million light-years-over 117 times the size of our Milky Way! One standout galaxy, ASKAP J0107-2347, lies 1.5 billion light-years away and contains nested lobes that could reveal how these cosmic giants grow so massive.

    There are a lot more secrets of the universe that are hidden from us mortals.
