How high does the altimeter go?

When playing I noticed that when you pass 999999 m it switches to kilometers and then megameters and so on, but what I have wondered is how high does it go?

 

[Coolstorm10_]

999999 Yottametres

or

105,702,341,000,000 LIGHTYEARS

or

999999000000000000000000000 kilometers

OR

999,999,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 meters

OR 

1136 TIMES THE SIZE OF THE OBSERVABLE UNIVERSE.

 

TL;DR the maximum height is pretty freaking high, only possible to reach by kraken.

I got the meter to go up to X (exameters?) before it looks like it loops back around to meters.

Then my ship/the universe stopped existing after going higher, reverting to launch didn't seem to fix it

Ah, I doubt that it's only reachable by kraken.  While technically possible to get there by conventional means in stock, your computer would have degraded into dust by that time.

Maybe with unlimited fuel, accelerate to ludicrous speed and then BetterTimeWarp?
