I just came across Richard Powell's website, http://anzwers.org/free/universe/, and was "blown away". It is too good not to share!
Some of you may have seen it, which bears some similarity to a plate National Geographic did years ago. There are similarities to the star maps done by Wil Tirion in Mark A. Garlick's "The Illustrated Atlas of the Universe", which came out just last year. It portrays the relative sizes and distances of the Solar System to nearby stars, groups, galaxies, clusters and so on out to "the edge".
Check it out! :eyepop:
Clear Dark Skies!
