Artist creates amazing map of entire universe in one image - © wikipedia.org
An artist has created in a stunning circular image of the entire
observable universe using NASA images based on astronomical surveys
provided by Princeton University. It’s also quintessentially geocentric –
with Earth’s solar system right at the center.
The South American artist and musician, Pablo Carlos Budassi, captured in his universe map the outer rings of the Milky Way, surrounded by the Kuiper belt, the neighboring Andromeda galaxy, and other star formations, then encircled these star clusters with a ring of plasma left over from the Big Bang.
Budassi told Tech Insider that he got the idea after making hexaflexagons for his son's birthday one year. Hexaflexagons are flat paper models that can be folded in certain ways to reveal faces besides the six that were originally on the back and front.
"I started drawing central views of the cosmos and the solar system," Budassi told Tech Insider in an email. "That day the idea of a logarithmic view came and in the next days I was able to [assemble] it.”
With photoshop, Budassi used images from NASA based on observations made by their telescopes and roving spacecraft, and some textures created by himself. In the center of the image is the glowing sun, then each planet is placed where it is in the Solar System.
