Funnel-shaped universe, artwork
Funnel-shaped universe. Computer artwork showing the geometrical curvature of a Picard horn (funnel-shaped) universe. The galaxies are shown on a grid, which represents the overall geometry of the universe. The curvature of a universe is determined by the amount and density of matter and energy. The Picard model has a finite volume and was created in an attempt to describe the microwave background radiation apparent in the Universe

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork titled "Funnel-shaped Universe" takes us on a visual journey through the intricate and enigmatic world of cosmology. Set against a striking black background, this computer-generated illustration showcases the geometrical curvature of a Picard horn universe. The galaxies, meticulously arranged on a grid, symbolize the overall geometry of our vast cosmos. The curvature depicted here is influenced by the distribution and density of matter and energy within this particular model. The finite volume of the Picard universe aims to explain the microwave background radiation that pervades our observable Universe. As we delve into this multidimensional masterpiece, we are reminded of the profound interplay between art and science. Its curved shapes and cut-out design invite us to explore concepts such as topology, astrophysics, and cosmology in an aesthetically pleasing manner. Within these four-dimensional realms lies spatial hyperbolicity - an intriguing aspect that challenges our understanding of traditional Euclidean space. This thought-provoking artwork serves as a gateway to ponder upon fundamental questions about our existence and place in the cosmos. Created by Science Photo Library's talented artists, this print offers not only an artistic delight but also sparks curiosity about the mysteries that lie beyond what meets the eye. Whether you are an astronomy enthusiast or simply captivated by visually stunning creations, "Funnel-shaped Universe" will transport you to new dimensions where imagination intertwines with scientific exploration.
