The research suggests matter is not as “clumpy” as would be expected based on the current best model of the universe. According to the scientists, this adds to a body of evidence that there ...
This type of diagram could be called temperature-luminosity diagram, but this term is hardly ever used; when the distinction is made, this form is called the theoretical Hertzsprung–Russell diagram instead. A peculiar characteristic of this form of the H–R diagram is that the temperatures are plotted from high temperature to low temperature ...

Comoving spacetime diagram of our flat universe. Particle horizon: green, Hubble radius: blue, Event horizon: purple, Light cone: orange. Hyperbolic universe with the same radiation and matter density parameters as ours, but without dark energy. Closed universe without dark energy and with overcritical density, which leads to a Big Crunch ...
The galactic coordinates use the Sun as the origin. Galactic longitude (l) is measured with primary direction from the Sun to the center of the galaxy in the galactic plane, while the galactic latitude (b) measures the angle of the object above the galactic plane.
The most well-known class of spacetime diagrams are known as Minkowski diagrams, developed by Hermann Minkowski in 1908. Minkowski diagrams are two-dimensional graphs that depict events as happening in a universe consisting of one space dimension and one time dimension. Unlike a regular distance-time graph, the distance is displayed on the ...
A graphical view of the Cosmic Calendar, featuring the months of the year, days of December, the final minute, and the final second. The Cosmic Calendar is a method to visualize the chronology of the universe, scaling its currently understood age of 13.8 billion years to a single year in order to help intuit it for pedagogical purposes in science education or popular science.
Original - A diagram of Earth’s location in the Universe in a series of eight maps that show from left to right, the Earth, inside the Solar System, inside the Solar Interstellar Neighborhood, inside the Milky Way, inside the Local Galactic Group, inside the Virgo Supercluster, inside our local superclusters, and finally finishing inside the entire observable Universe.
