Cosmic Origins Spectrograph: Large Scale Structure of the Universe

The Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) instrument will be placed in the Hubble Space Telescope during Service Mission 4. Its primary science objectives are the study of the origins of large scale structure in the Universe, the formation and evolution of galaxies, the origin of stellar and planetary systems, and the cold interstellar medium. This animation zooms out from our Milky Way galaxy to show the cosmic web, or large scale structure of the Universe.

Zoom out to the edge of the universe revealing the large-scale structure of the universe also called the cosmic web.

[ElvisFerbeyre]

And what's beyond all those large-scale structures???

[socratus1]

What is the Source of the Universe ? In the book Evolution of Physics Einstein and Infeld wrote: We have the laws, but we are not aware what the body of reference system they belong to, and all our physical construction appears erected on sand They are right. Why? Because : The Universe ( as a whole ) is Two- Measured, there are two Worlds: Vacuum and Gravity So, What was before Vacuum or Gravity ? Does Gravity exist in Vacuum or vice versa? No answer
