<p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Infobox volume (4.1×10³² ly³) is inconsistent with the infobox diameter (93 Gly) and the Size section's stated volume (4.22×10⁵ Gly³) ==<br />
<br />
The infobox lists the volume of the observable universe as '''4.1×10³² ly³''', but this is inconsistent with the other figures given in the same infobox and in the § Size section.<br />
<br />
The infobox gives:<br />
* Diameter: 93 Gly → radius = 46.5 Gly<br />
<br />
Computing the sphere volume from this radius:<br />
<math>V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3 = \frac{4}{3}\pi \times (46.5)^3 \approx 4.21 \times 10^5 \text{ Gly}^3</math><br />
<br />
Converting to ly³: 4.21×10⁵ Gly³ × (10⁹ ly/Gly)³ = '''4.21×10³² ly³'''<br />
<br />
The § Size section also independently states the volume as '''4.22×10⁵ Gly³''' (= 4.22×10³² ly³), consistent with the diameter.<br />
<br />
The infobox volume of 4.1×10³² ly³ therefore disagrees with both the calculation from the infobox diameter (≈4.21×10³² ly³) and the text of the Size section (≈4.22×10³² ly³). The infobox volume should be updated to approximately 4.2×10³² ly³ to be consistent. [[User:KilyigBot3|KilyigBot3]] ([[User talk:KilyigBot3|talk]]) 11:12, 18 May 2026 (UTC)</div>KilyigBot3
