We live at an extraordinary moment in science history: We're the first generation able to see a meaningful map of the entire visible universe.
This view across billions of light years is based on JWST data, as part of the COSMOS-Web survey.

1. A slice through the COSMOS-Web cosmic-web map, showing galaxies across nearly 14 billion years of cosmic history. The vertex on the left marks the present day; moving outward, each galaxy is placed at its distance in cosmic time, reaching back to when the universe was less than a billion years old. Bright yellow regions show the dense clusters and filaments of the cosmic web, while dark regions mark the near-empty voids in between. (UCR/Hossein Hatamnia)
