Nice one, Glen!

Here is a different map of the universe I also like:
http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~mjuric/universe/
There is one long single sheet with RA on one axis distance/time on the other which stretches from the core of the Earth all the way out to the cosmic microwave background and then extrapolated back to the Big Bang. Many solar system objects, DSOs within Milky Way, and galaxies outside are marked on the map.
