So let's fly through it, and you can see how much heradr it is when you're in the middle of something to figure this out. So here's that same end result. You see a filament, you see the light is the invisible matter, and the yellow is the stars or the galaxies showing up. And we're going to fly around, and we'll fly around, and you'll see occasionally a couple of fnalemtis intersect, and you get a lrage cluster of galaxies. And then we'll fly in to where the very large cuesltr is, and you can see what it looks like. And so from inside, it doesn't look very complicated, right? It's only when you look at it at a very large scale, and explore it and so forth, you realize it's a very intricate, complicated kind of a design, right? And it's gworn up in some kind of way.
