The Cosmic Web (Artist’s Impression)
An artist’s impression of the cosmic web. Gravity builds a vast cobweb-like structure of filaments tying galaxies and galaxy clusters together along invisible bridges hundreds of millions of light-years long. Hubble studies the cosmic web to help us better understand the invisible forces that have shaped our universe into this structure.
