farthest flung

Maximally spread out

Farthest flung describes the most remote or distant places in a group or system: the farthest-flung outposts of the empire, researchers in the farthest-flung corners of the globe.

The phrase emphasizes extreme distance from a center, often with connotations of isolation or scattered distribution.

Sometimes hyphenated.
