Scientists at the University of Central Lancashire have discovered a gigantic, ring-shaped structure in space.

"It is 1.3bn light-years in diameter and appears to be roughly 15 times the size of the Moon in the night sky as seen from Earth.

Named the Big Ring by the astronomers, it is made up of galaxies and galaxy clusters.

They say that it is so big it challenges our understanding of the universe."

They say that it is so big it challenges our understanding of the universe.

Not mine it doesn't. What with quantum mechanics, I've never understood it in the first place.

When I was doing my Physics BSc I expressed concerns to my tutor about not understanding Quantum Mechanics. His reply, paraphrased, was: "Shut up and do the maths." So I did and I got the right answers and after a while I forgot that I have no idea what it all means.
