The Map of the Universe Sculpture by Crystal Nebulae is a scientifically accurate crystal sculpture that holds a Guinness World Record as the smallest-scale commercially-available map ever made. Using ultra-precision laser technology, this high-resolution sculpture beautifully reproduces the intricacy and ethereal appearance of astronomical objects. Each mark on the sculpture represents one of the approximately 200,000 galaxies in the redshift survey, accurately reflecting their positions in space. At a scale of 1:1x10^27, this sculpture provides a three-dimensional map of the surveyed sections of the Universe, revealing the complex distribution of galaxies, filamentary structures, and vast voids, offering a fascinating glimpse into the cosmic web.
