小编导读：把整个宇宙纳入小小的计算机屏幕?没错，看上去应该和上图差不多。

　　Our sun and solar system are pictured at the center of this gorgeous logarithmic illustration.

　　在这张华丽的对数图像中心部位，捕捉到的是我们的太阳和太阳系。

　　Using Photoshop andlogarithmic maps created by scientists at Princeton, artist and musician Pablo Carlos Budassi combined images from NASA with original sketches to create this stunning illustration that captures the unimaginably vast observable universe.

　　艺术家巴勃罗·卡洛斯·布达西把美国宇航局拍摄的照片和原始草图相结合，利用普林斯顿的科学家创制的对数图和Photoshop图片处理技术，创造了这幅美丽震撼的图像，把无边之大的宇宙都纳入了有限的视野里。

　　Our sun and solar system are at the center of the gorgeous disc of color. Encircling them are the inner and outer planets; the Kuiper belt; Oort cloud; Alpha Centauri star; Perseus Arm; Milky Way galaxy; other nearby galaxies including theAndromeda galaxy; the cosmic web; cosmic microwave radiation; and, at the very edges of the image, quark-gluon plasma produced by the Big Bang.

　　华丽的色盘中心是我们的太阳和太阳系。环绕着的是内外环行星、柯伊伯带、奥尔特云、半人马座阿尔法星系、英仙座星系、银河系，其它附近星系包括有仙女座星系，还有宇宙网、宇宙微波辐射，以及最边缘大爆炸产生的夸克胶子等离子体。

　　Budassi said that he got the idea of a logarithmic view to create the complex image while creating hexaflaxagons for his son’s birthday.

　　布达西说，他在给儿子生日制作六角多面体的时候想到了以对数的视角来制作这一复杂图像。

　　Logarithmic maps are very helpful in the visualization of very large areas as the scale of the map decreases as you move outwards from the center.

　　对于把大块区域视觉化，对数地图大有帮助，因为地图的比例尺会随远离中心而缩小。
