Logarithmic Maps of the Universe This website contains figures from "Map of the Universe" e-print, by Gott, Juric et al. The paper has been published in the Astrophysical Journal (Gott et al., 2005, ApJ, 624, 463), and you can also find the manuscript here (note: Figure 8. of the manuscript has been published as an inset poster, and has to be downloaded separately (see below)). Note to Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox users: your browser will automatically shrink the large maps once they're loaded. Click on the shrunk image to bring it back to its full size and be able to scroll it. To print the map, print out the individual sheets and tape them together to make a wall map. To get the best quality and resolution, use the PostScript versions.
