Observations focusing on cosmic microwave background, which is the flash of light released when the universe is only 380,000 years old, have established that our universe is flat and parallel ...

Baby Universe is an experiment in visuals. It consists of different worlds with digital kaleidoscopes. One of them, a 3D Kaleidoscope, is floating in space. You create visual effects by pressing ...

The astronomical map you see here doesn’t depict stars, it shows galaxies—1.2 million of them, to be exact, a new record for astronomers. This extraordinary new 3D scan of the universe ...

Scientists from the NERSC and Berkeley National Laboratory are using a supercomputer to create one of the most complete, three-dimensional maps of the adolescent universe — using extremely faint light ...

The researchers propose the way we see the universe might be the same way we watch a 3D movie at the cinema – we can experience the depth, even if it is simply a two-dimensional projection.

Scientists created the first 3D map of the Universe in 1998, but that data only allowed us to see to within about 1 billion light-years. New telescope technology, though, now allows us to map the ...
