Oh, for crying out loud. If you believe the claim is that they have extended the actual physical size of the galaxy, you "srsly" need a reading lesson.
I’m making a point about the arrogance of man and man’s pride.
But — for crying out loud — scientists as a group are rather arrogant about the extent of their “knowledge” — even as they continuously find the need to “revise” it.
And science writers, as a group, take theory and conjecture and portray it as absolute fact quite a bit more than they should.
But lighten up, Francis — I mean, YHWH is certainly laughing over it!
Srsly.
