the distribution of galaxies. This picture covers a region of sky about 100 degrees by 50 degrees around the South Galactic Pole. The intensities of each pixel are scaled to the number of galaxies in each pixel, with blue, green and red for bright, medium and faint galaxies (1-mag slices centred on B magnitude 18, 19 and 20). The many small dark `holes' are excluded areas around bright stars, globular clusters etc.


holy shit we are that insignificant
