[edit] Commentary
I assume the statement about the non-discovery of galaxies is 1) either a hyperbole or 2) based on the fact that there weren't intruments capable of detecting/distinguishing stars from galaxies (if the nearest ones were that far away) until the 1960s XE. Also, although I'm aware the large scale structure of the local universe (an the initial anisotropy of the primordial singularity) is responsible for voids, I wonder if the new instruments such as Chandra confirm that they are in fact galaxy free.
