Do you have something which isn't YouTube. My trust in YouTube is worse than Facebook.

Remove the word "strange" and it's almost not click bait!

Wikipedia article discussing superbubbles in general. Sections on formation and list of examples. Reference section lists scientific articles going back to the 1970s.

Solar System is in a superbubble called the Local Bubble.

And our universe - what we know of as the universe - is almost definitely a result of, and/or interacting with. Something completely outside of it. Possible something(s) far, far more significant. And we may never be able to know what. Ever.

Someone run "cosmic bubble around universe" into mid journey and see what pops out.
