Gregory's ServerA group at Johns Hopkins has created a scrollable, interactive map of the entire universe, from here to the cosmic microwave background.
Extraordinary discoveries at your fingertips for free, unimaginable when I was a kid. https://mapoftheuniverse.net/ #astronomy #space #exploration

@coreyspowell Would be more helpful if there was a "You Are Here" arrow. Just sayin'. @R47HK3 @coreyspowell The entire map is an arrow pointing at the words "you are here" in clear plain text in the middle of the bottom of the graphic @R47HK3 @coreyspowell @wishartfrankfield @coreyspowell Surprisingly enough it's the bit at the bottom center that says "you are here" and the entire map is effectively an arrow pointing right at it. This is so incredibly cool Hubby and I spend a lot of free time learning about the cosmic microwave background and thinking about cosmology. He's a data scientist and a bit of a math enthusiast. I like it when this stuff blows my mind in a fun way!  @coreyspowell I need to explore this with VR goggles. Talk about a natural high. :)   @coreyspowell Everyone has already said it, but I’ll add mine: this is a childhood and adult dream come true. Amazing, thanks for sharing! |
@coreyspowell that’s fantastic and amazing. I love things like this
