@coreyspowell

This is so incredibly cool

Hubby and I spend a lot of free time learning about the cosmic microwave background and thinking about cosmology. He's a data scientist and a bit of a math enthusiast.

I like it when this stuff blows my mind in a fun way!

@coreyspowell what are the chances of adding an “ask a physicist” box to the site? Specifically - if we know it looks like the same from other galaxies, how can it also be a sphere? Or say you’re piloting a star ship in the 2Xth century, what coordinates do you enter to get from Earth (or Milky Way, whatever is a sensible starting point) to a RandomGalaxyInBlueBand and what’s to a RandomGalaxyInRedBand?

@coreyspowell I remember the excitement of connecting to a NASA gopher server with my 1200 baud modem to download some random picture like I was living in the future.

The terminal resized itself to 120 columns or so and I was surprised that could happen and my Uncle John explained "they're the government. They can do anything!"
