Yup, we've got a new map of... a quarter of the known universe, charting 1.2 million galaxies. Each one of course containing ...well, billions of stars. Estimates for our own galaxy put it at 100-400 billion.
Mind boggling. Beautiful. Majestic. Beyond imagining.

Wow. There really isn't a big enough deal being made about the fact that we even have the capability of mapping 1/4 of the freaking universe. Even if it's only on a galaxial scale, that's astonishing.
