| Sep 27, 2017 at 22:20 | comment | added | Jim421616 | @iMerchant: Mpc = megaparsecs. A parsec is roughly equal to 3.26 light-years, so a megaparsec is 3.26 million light-years. 410 Mpc is therefore 1.34 billion light-years. | |

| Sep 27, 2017 at 21:08 | comment | added | chirlu | @iMerchant: It just means that the distance could be between 230 Mpc (410–180) and 570 Mpc (410+160), but that 410 Mpc is the best estimate. | |
