Just, y’know, a plot of all objects in the universe...🤯
@autiomaa I agree that @infobeautiful is often not very good at providing sources at all. Bad habit. I hate that I have to reverse engineer where images came from when I want to find out more about it. It's more information porn than real information.
This image apparently comes from CERN, who also provide much more explanation: https://ep-news.web.cern.ch/content/all-objects-universe-and-some-questions
When astronauts look at the Earth from orbit, they are often awed by its beauty and isolation. They speak of the overview effect; a cognitive shift to a new larger perspective that gives context and meaning to their lives. For physicists, a similar, more abstract overview effect can come from the perusal of log-log plots.
