Añadido: 2026-06-02

[00:00:00]The Boötes Void is a place in the universe, or empty. It could make you believe nothing else existed.

[00:00:05]A cosmic region 330 million light years wide. Scientists expected to find thousands of galaxies. They found 60.

[00:00:13]It's called the Boötes Void. And if the Milky Way were inside it, you would look in every direction. You would see almost nothing. No other galaxies. No signals.

[00:00:22]No evidence that anything else existed.

[00:00:24]You would have assumed you were alone.

[00:00:26]Scientists found it by accident in 1981.

[00:00:29]It shouldn't exist. Their models can't explain it. The universe isn't full of things. It's mostly made of nothing.
