The largest known structure in the universe is the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall, which is a massive galaxy supercluster spanning 10 BILLION light-years across
For context, one light-year is 5.88 trillion miles (9.46 trillion kilometers). In a light-minute, light travels 11,160,000 miles (17,960,279 kilometers). The Sun is 8.3 light-minutes away.
For you math lovers out there: In a vacuum, light travels at 670,616,629 mph (1,079,252,849 km/h). To find the distance of a light-year, you multiply this speed by the number of hours in a year (8,766). The result: One light-year equals 5,878,625,370,000 miles (9.5 trillion km).

You’re most welcome.
Shouldn’t such big distances be measured in Parsec or in Astronomical Units (AU)?

IDK. I guess it depends on what you’re measuring. You’d have to ask the astronomers.
“The Light Year is about 64,500 times larger than the Astronomical Unit, too large to be appropriate for an object the size of our solar system. The Light Year is fine for measuring distances to stars or other galaxies but not for measuring distances within our own solar system.”
A parsec is 3.26 light-years. Much too big for our solar system.
