This six-minute movie by the Hayden Planetarium shows the entire known universe humanity has mapped so far.

The world’s most complete four-dimensional map of the universe, the Digital Universe Atlas (maintained and updated by astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History) was used to position every single satellite, moon, planet, star, and galaxy to scale and is in its correct, measured location according to the best scientific research to date.
