The most ambitious map in history is taking shape before our eyes.

And scientists are heading for the edge.

It may be the strangest map you'll ever see.

And it's bigger than you can believe.

It's a map of the entire universe.

There's this whole pattern to the universe we're starting to map out.

Seeing it really brought home the way the universe actually behaved, in a way that all the numbers and equations never quite could.

Cosmologists are making sense of startling discoveries.

Medieval maps would say, "Here be monsters."

They weren't entirely wrong.
