The largest unit of measurement is the gigaparsec. There is no need for a even larger unit, because the observable universe is 14 gigaparsecs across.
all i can think of when i see the word gigaparsec is this stupid thread


I wonder what would happen if a particle could travel at a one gigaparsec per second, though.

My stupidity is self evident.
if the universe really is infinite, then somewhere real fucking far away there is an exact replica of you living on an exact replica of earth reading this exact same thread

I just want to point out that just because something's infinite doesn't mean there exists all possible combinations of events. For instance, an infinite string of numbers, such as pi, by no means contains all combinations of numbers.
The figures that show up in pi aren't correlated. The relative positions of the particles that make up matter(stars, planets, people) are correlated through the fundamental forces, doesn't that make that comparison misleading?

the ohmygod particle, which was a proton traveling very close to the speed of light, had roughly the same amount of kinetic energy as a speeding baseball

a particle with mass traveling a gigaparsec per second would probably have the same amount of kinetic energy as an asteroid

the afterglow of the Big Bang can still be detected as microwave background radiation coming from all over space

tune your TV between the stations and about 1% of the static on the screen is from the big bang

so basically the oldest station on TV, is no station at all

As I have said earlier in the thread;

"This might be correct.

It comes down to a question of definition.
A star is plasma held together by its own gravity. The definition has nothing to do with actual matter other than plasma.
You don't need atoms to make a star, just ionized particles.

So by lighting a match on fire, putting it in the microwave, turning the microwave on you are essentially creating trillions of stars per second.

There is more plasma in the universe than atoms. So it could be true."

In retrospect it's a pretty poor comparison, but the point still stands that infinite space doesn't imply an infinite, or any, number of copies of any person, place, or thing.
