Superclusters, this is quite beautiful

That video details some remarkable research, G_j. In less than a century, humanity has seen the size of the cosmos grow from the 100,000 light year-wide Milky Way to the 13.8 billion light year-wide universe with clusters and superclusters and who-knows what else.

Seeing the filaments connecting clusters and superclusters shows how, even on cosmic scales, we are attached to one another in ways that we're just starting to learn. To see the "side filaments" curling up and away, while rudimentary today, gives us an understanding of the true nature of reality that seemed impossible when we were kids.

I love astronomy. I'm at home anywhere there's a sky.
