Atlas of the Universe

A website built for the wow factor.

http://www.atlasoftheuniverse.com/

The Visible Universe as we know it.

Awesome site, just wished they had much better graphics.

that was kind of a let down IMO

It looks informative but quite lacking in style.

Fun thought:

According to the website, there are 3x10^22 stars in the visible universe. If we assume that one in a trillion star systems contains a planet with life, then that's about 30 billion planets.

And people really still think the universe was created solely for us?

If it was only for us, why would be so insignificant in it innit ?

God made the universe really big to impress us with his amazing creative power.

Sorry about that, I meant to put them all in the good book, but I ran out of room between the book of Numbers and Deuteronomy, and I just couldn't arsed to count any more
