An international team of researchers, including University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> at Mānoa<\/a> astronomer Brent Tully<\/strong> has mapped the motions of structures of the nearby universe in greater detail than ever before. The maps are presented as a video<\/a>, which provides a dynamic three-dimensional representation of the universe through the use of rotation, panning and zooming. The video was announced at the Cosmic Flows: Observations and Simulations<\/a> conference in Marseille, France. The conference honored Tully’s career and 70th birthday.<\/p>\n

The Cosmic Flows project has mapped visible and dark matter densities around the Milky Way galaxy up to a distance of 300 million light-years.<\/p>\n
