These successive surveys allow scientists to trace the large-scale structures of the Universe up to a fraction of its “horizon”, represented by the cosmic microwave background emission (seen in the video as a colorful pattern projected onto a sphere)....
The earth-observer is situated on the edge of spacetime, looking backward in time through ever- smaller universes toward the Big Bang. Implications for the Hubble expansion model, the cosmological horizon problem, and the red shift are discussed. Flat as well as gravitationally curved models are ...
Coloured shafts mapped the vault from horizon to zenith like the spokes of a prodigious wheel of fire. The Wave|Algernon Blackwood In the midst of all the debauches mapped out by her mother, it seemed to her as if God had left over for her one happiness. ...
The maps are large-scale, focusing on specific Martian features (e.g. Olympus Mons, above). Though maps have historically covered large areas, with crewed lunar missions on the horizon and other missions across the solar system in the planning stages, large-scale, small-area maps are starting...
the existence of a spinless quantum field that permeates the Universe and gives mass to massive elementary particles. Testing the existence and properties of this field and its associated particle, the Higgs boson, has been one of the main goals of particle physics for several decades. In the...
Note that the scoring scheme is not allowed to depend on the underlying nucleotide sequences besides what is captured in the sketch. Miscellenous. We use Uk to denote the universe of all k-mers. Given two sequences p and s, the weighted Jaccard is defined as ∑x∈Ukmin(occ(x,p),occ...
What are the natures of dark energy and dark matter, and how is dark matter distributed? Are there deviations from General Relativity, and on what scales? What is the relationship between dark matter and ordinary baryonic matter? What are their relative distributions in the Universe and how do...
“Some of our Cepheids are as distant as 60,000 light years.” With more all-sky surveys on the horizon, there are plenty of mapping opportunities to come. By putting them all together, we can better understand our galaxy—and our solar system’s place in it. John Wenz Writer John ...

If the horizon is sitting across the screen when you look at it, you can move along it to face it the way you feel is where you are looking, but select ‘North or South’ as this will put the Meridian vertical in the middle. If you put the Meridian so it is straight, you can ...
