The Large-Scale Structure of the Universe

Explore the fascinating realm of cosmography in this Frontiers of Geophysics lecture delivered by renowned astronomer Brent Tully. Delve into the evolution of galaxy mapping and the groundbreaking Cosmicflows program, which has revolutionized our understanding of galaxy positions, motions, and the distribution of dark matter in the universe. Learn about Tully's four-decade journey in developing increasingly precise measurements of galaxy distances and deviations from cosmic expansion. Gain insights into the large-scale structure of the universe and the cutting-edge research that has earned Tully prestigious accolades, including the Viktor Ambartsumian International Science Prize and the Gruber Cosmology Prize.
