The Known Universe by AMNH

Posted in Digital Food Scale - by admin | July 28th, 2010

The Known Universe takes viewers from the Himalayas through our atmosphere and the inky black of space to the afterglow of the Big Bang. Every star, planet, and quasar seen in the film is possible because of the world’s most complete four-dimensional map of the universe, the Digital Universe Atlas that is maintained and updated by astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History. The new film, created by the Museum, is part of an exhibition, Visions of the Cosmos: From the Milky Ocean to an Evolving Universe, at the Rubin Museum of Art in Manhattan through May 2010. Data: Digital Universe, American Museum of Natural History www.haydenplanetarium.org Visualization Software: Uniview by SCISS Director: Carter Emmart Curator: Ben R. Oppenheimer Producer: Michael Hoffman Executive Producer: Ro Kinzler Co-Executive Producer: Martin Brauen Manager, Digital Universe Atlas: Brian Abbott Music: Suke Cerulo For more information visit www.amnh.org

    To know that I am not to be permanently imprisoned by these memories,that all pain is temporary.I and those I love are all a part of the same undying consciousness that had found a home in this organic matter, kept a record of its experiences.And when it is time to move on, the records are whiped clean and its home crumbles around it.But “it” is still there.We are sieves, the fine toothed comb that runs through consciousness, so that it may graze something–actualize itself.

    @jesterjacobs They are maybe 212 extremists religious people who still think that the Earth is the center of the Universe.

    Anyone who thinks we are the only life forms in the universe is either extremely ignorant or unbelievbly arogant

    Interesting that the far mapped areas are cone shaped. Is there some kind of shadow we cannot cross?

    This movie shows our insignificance. I seriously recomend everybody to watch the movie named “EARTH”. You´re gonna see thar our living condicion and it´s nice to described it as a miracle.
