Thanks SunkenCiv. When viewed from the animation perspective the universe appears crowded. Not many voids.

Far out man! Instead of stars passing by you got galaxies—really helps put the size of the universe in perspective.

What would have been real cool if in the video we got real close to one of the galaxies and skimmed over it for a while.

How fast are we going? Like warp factor 12?

I found the perfect vacation spot! It's right there in the movie, you can't miss it.

That's lovely. When I look up in the sky I don't really get a good sense of depth even though I know it must be there.
Computer flythroughs like this helps me visualize it.
Thank You for posting.

I think they missed a couple. Then again, my screen may not have been big enough to hold them all.
