Our home galaxy's disk is about 100,000 light-years in diameter and just 1000 light-years thick, according to Las Cumbres Observatory . (space.com)
If you take a point in time, relatively soon after the beginning of the Universe, say, a couple of million years, and say that the Universe was about 1000 times smaller then, than it is today, so 1 light-year then, has now been stretched to become 1000 light-years now. (physicsforums.com)
