Can you see God's fingerprints? Or the faces?

It is an amazing and awe-inspiring map. I love the unusual scales (megaparsecs and earth radii).


I hope people won't interpret it as proof that the Earth is the center of the universe.

I keep a map of the universe in my car's glove box.

Its scale is 1:1. It takes a long time to fold up.

That's a fascinating picture. Thanks for posting that link.

Now I won't get lost in the universe anymore.

Pretty!

Its a very interesting image, the universe appears to be filled with a lot of blue and red blobby thingies, absolutely remarkable.

.....And I'll get sucked into a black hole before I'll stop and ask for directions...

Drat, I thought this was that 3D one that is being worked on.

Is it one of those ones where each subsequent sheet is half the thickness of the previous one, allowing an infinite map in a finite volume?
