Hard to imagine these black holes in the center of galaxies don't eventually end up claiming each one for itself , have often wondered what a future Universe would be like with these HUGE massively dense iRobot "Roombahs" cleaning up all debris with ultimate efficiency . This one black hole is 1000light years across, which is a good little chunk of space . And they suck in all the Dark Matter too , everything .

Our Milky Way once again is 100000-120000 light years in diameter containing 200–600 billion stars and just our galaxy is estimated to contain 50 billion planets, 500 million of which could be located in the habitable zone of their parent star.

Getting one's mind around the idea of inifnite space is , well , mind blowing ....there could be an infinite number of Universes out there all coming and going besides our very own little expanding "Nessie" and her big Bang .
