Picture a ring of galaxies so wide, light takes over a billion years to cross it. That is real, and it should not exist. A telescope built to look back at the start of time just found it hiding in the dark, near a group of stars called Boötes. Tonight we go there. We visit a ring that breaks a rule scientists thought was solid. We visit a web of one hundred sixty four thousand galaxies, mapped in more detail than ever before. And we visit the black holes hiding inside it, shooting jets at half the speed of light. If your brain likes being stretched, hit like and subscribe before we start. Get comfortable. We begin now.
