The Universe : Even bigger than before thought
According to astrophysicist Christopher J. Conselice (Nottingham University England) there are now two trillion galaxies. This is about 10 times as many galaxies as previously thought.

In the study astronomers formed three-dimensional models to measure the number of galaxies at different times from sky surveys by the Hubble Space Telescope and other instruments able to see far away, and about 13 billion years back. As not even the Hubble can see the oldest, faintest galaxies, the team also did some mathematical work to find two trillion galaxies.

The above post is btw ironic and illustrate how the culture creation continues the propaganda by way of inventing unverifiable thesis based on lacking evidence (the Hubble telescope provide photo-compositions rendered by artists, not actual images). The main goal seems to be to make us all quite insignificant and minimize our earthly existence and meaning of our own (human) lives.
