Creation Moment 1/21/2014 - Cosmic Web

"This deep image shows the Nebula (cyan) with a size of 2 million light-years discovered around the quasar UM287. The energetic radiation of the quasar makes the surrounding intergalactic gas glow revealing the physical structure of a cosmic web filament.
For the first time, astronomers were able to see a string of hot gas known as a filament that is thought to be part of the mysterious underlying structure that dictates the layout of all the stars and galaxies in our universe.
Scientists believe that matter in the universe is arranged into a gigantic web-like structure. This is called the cosmic web.
 Without some mysterious force pulling visible matter into this web, galaxies would be randomly scattered across the universe. But they aren't.
We can see that galaxies are found in groups and those groups come together in larger clusters.
The gas-filled areas are filament, while the emptier areas are the gaps between filaments and galaxy clusters.....giving us the first picture of extended gas between galaxies." YahooNews
He hath made the earth by his power,
he hath established the world by his wisdom,
and hath stretched out the heavens
by his discretion.
