With this video we travel from Earth all the way out past the edge of the universe and time then back in. Everything is in the correct position, moving properly as it has been mapped. Large swathes of the universe haven’t been fully mapped yet, so at one point the universe looks like two cones pointing to the Earth, but this is due to a limit of what we have accurately mapped not only its position relative to the Earth but its movement through space time. It is a wonder to behold.
There is actually a software package that you can use on your home PC as well for this. Digital Universe Atlas. Of course it is a really… really huge program, taking up more HD space then I for one can give it.
