The Void

From FABT

The Void, also known as dark space or intergalactic space, is the name used to describe the space between galaxies. As the name suggests, it is completely dark and devoid of any planets, star systems or clusters. The void makes up the majority of the known universe, acting as a massive ocean of darkness, where galaxies act as small islands of light. The distance between two neighbouring galaxies is in the order of several million light years, whereas the diameter of the Milky Way's galactic disc is only about 100,000 light years.
