  | Atlas of the Universe I posted this on another forum, but I'd thought I would post it here too... Have you guys heard of this site here: atlasoftheuniverse.com/universe.html Basically, it is an attempt to map the entire visible universe. Each little speck represents clusters of galaxies. Damn, that's pretty big. The map also allows you to zoom in on our part of the universe, and gives some interesting facts about the number of stars within a given patch of space. There's alot more in it too, like the big bang data, and so on. |
