The Excellent Attractor is erasing the universe, and we are sliding right into it. Discover the mystery of the Laniakea Supercluster, the Dipole Repeller, and the scary cosmic growth that is redrawing the map of our galaxy.
TL; DR: We aren't simply floating in area; we belong to an enormous "Bulk Flow" moving at 600 km/s towards a gravitational anomaly called the Great Attractor. Concealed behind the Galaxy's "Zone of Avoidance," this force is pulling 100,000 galaxies into a cosmic basin. However as we move down the river, Dark Energy and the Huge Rip are combating to eliminate the really connections that hold our universe together.
In this video, we explore:. The sky isn't still. Our whole galaxy is sliding-- 600 kilometers a second-- toward something we can't see. Astronomers call the destination the Great Attractor, and the route to it runs through a "blind strip" of sky our own Milky Way blocks. However even if gravity wins in your area, a bigger force is stretching the map itself. From the discovery of strange velocities in the 197s to the expose of the Dipole Repeller in the 201s, we track the story of our cosmic home, Laniakea, and the 3 terrifying endings that await us: Heat Death, the Huge Rip, and the mysterious Vacuum Decay.
