The Known Universe, A Logarithmic View

Logarithmic views are a great way to visualize items of large varying quantity, whether it is data collected from a nuclear detector or statistics across a population. But artist Pablo Carlos Budassi has applied it to something much larger – in fact, you could say he applied it to everything.

The artist has created a logarithmic view of the known universe. By pouring over data and pictures from NASA and other sources, Pablo’s work represents the universe with Earth in the center. With each ring outwards the distance greatly increases, until the outer edges cover billions of miles. The end result is a facinating look at the known universe today from our limited perspective. You can find larger images of his work here.
