In July 2020, after a 20-year-long survey, astrophysicists of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey published the largest, most detailed 3D map of the universe so far, filled a gap of 11 billion years in its expansion history, and provided data which supports the theory of a flat geometry of the universe and confirms that different regions seem to be ...
The observable universe is a spherical region of the universe consisting of all matter that can be observed from Earth or its space-based telescopes and exploratory probes at the present time; the electromagnetic radiation from these objects has had time to reach the Solar System and Earth since the beginning of the cosmological expansion.

[6] The Scale of the Universe was featured on NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day on October 7, 2018. [9] In 2020, animation studio Kurzgesagt released the app Universe in a Nutshell, which took inspiration from The Scale of ...
The European Space Agency’s Euclid telescope aims to create the largest 3D map of the universe in the next six years. ... with its visible light camera. Euclid’s first images were released in ...
The new map represents one of the most precise measurements of how all the stuff in the universe is distributed across the universe. It mostly fits with our existing picture of the cosmos.
Pictures could also help tell some of the universe’s biggest secrets
English: "A simulated view of the entire observable universe", approximately 93 billion light years (or 28.5 billion parsecs) in diameter. The scale is such that the fine grains represent collections of large numbers of superclusters. The Virgo Supercluster—home of Milky Way—is marked at the center, but is too small to be seen in the image.
The first five images captured by the Euclid telescope showcase glimmering clusters of galaxies and stars. The telescope, launched in July, was designed to create the most detailed 3D map of the ...
